The latest book about Michelle Obama's sense of fashion & style draws on the comparisons between her and the legendary Jackie O.  "Mrs. O: The Face of Fashion Democracy" by the blogger who founded Mrs-O.org includes designer interviews, fashion illustrations of some of Michelle O's high profile outfits, and even breathless praise from her biggest fans, the people.

While both First Ladies are famous for their love of fashion, Jackie Kennedy was anything but democratic in her tastes in clothing, spending lavishly on high-end designer names like Oleg Cassini and Givenchy. Michelle Obama wears both high & low - J. Crew & Rodarte - but could take a page from the other Mrs. O's staunch dedication to a personally -flattering fashion silhouette...as a result of which she is still lauded as a legendary fashion icon.
