Who: Michelle Obama

Wearing: Balenciaga thigh-high stiletto-heel boots

Where: Barclays Center in Brooklyn

If you’ve been living under a rock this week, then you may have missed Michelle Obama’s standout look that had jaws dropping everywhere. Our former First Lady donned a pair of Balenciaga boots that were so sparkly and fabulous that only she could pull off. With her recent memoir “Becoming,” just being released, Michelle Obama has been on tour across the country selling out stadiums left and right. A number of celebrity guests have played moderator including Reese Witherspoon, Oprah, and Sarah Jessica Parker (as seen above.)

It’s not the $3,900 price tags that has us loving this look so much though. It’s the fact that while Michelle Obama was in the public eye during President Obama’s run, she was constantly under scrutiny for what she wore. Now that she’s out, we love that she’s wearing what she wants on her own terms.
