I'm going to have to remember to pull out all of the great Americana inspiration that came out with the inauguration around July 4th! I particularly like this 'waving' cupcake flag.

Word on the street is that Michelle's green gloves and shoes- as well both of the girl's outfits, were from J. Crew.

I continue to check back with Bloomacious frequently to see all the latest in Michelle's inaugural attire. I think this ensemble is a clear winner!

I've also been meaning to thank all of you for your sweet comments from the December 28th post. It's amazing how many similar stories there are! Life feels so precious these days.

And on to the post...

This year's biggest party- the inauguration- is just two weeks away! My mom sent me these fashionista items the Obama camp has commissioned for the occasion. Tory Burch, Zac Posen, Diane Von Furstenberg...and more- have designed some really cool items for the big day. See more here.
