PHOTOS: The Week's Best Style Moments
From StyleList: Attention young designers: Want to retire early? Get your clothes on Michelle Obama, ASAP! That's because the first lady is helping labels make a mint every time she flaunts their fashions.
A Harvard Business Review study by NYU professor David Yermack reveals that Mrs. Obama earned designer brands and the stores that sell them $2.7 billion from the 189 public appearances she made between November 2008 and December 2009, according to New York magazine.
Or, to put things in more simple terms, that's $14 million for a single public appearance.
See who Michelle has set up for life @ StyleList

INCREDIBLE IS "MY LADY O", OUR "ISABELLA", HUSBAND TO HER "ANTONEY" IS SHE NOT? THIS "BLACK WOMAN" FROM OUR DIASPORA, REBIRH AND REDISCOVERY OF OURSELVES. LISTED BY FORBES MAGAZINE AS THE MOST POWERFUL WOMAN IN AMERICA; WITH HER "ANTONEY"(THE PRESIDENT) BEING THE MOST POWERFUL MAN IN THE WORLD. DO YOU KNOW WHAT MR. PRESIDENT THINKS WHEN HE SEE'S HIS "ISABELLA" IN THE MORNING, WHEN SHE WALKS ACROSS THE ROOM, WHEN HE SMELLS HER SKIN WHEN MAKING LOVE TO HER? THEN LOOKING AT THE GLOW ON HER FACE AFTERWARDS, LOVING AND LOOKING AT THE CHILDREN SHE BORE HIM? (LITTLE "WILLIAM TUCKERS"-THIS TIME TWO WOUNDERFUL GIRLS)--------I KNOW. HE SAYS: GLISTEN IN YOUR PRISTINE SPLENDOR, MICHELLE, MY DEAR.

What a delightful lady! It is refreshing to see the Numero Uno Lady of the US being a symbol of non-pretensive femininity, glamor and intelligence. I adore her!

That's an excellent idea for when she becomes a private citizen, I'd buy her brand. I like what she stands for. She could call it Former First or Ladies First.
