"  First Lady Michelle Obama&amp;#039;s certainly injected a long-missed sense of style into the White House. In her two years in D.C. she&amp;#039;s spotlighted young designers like Jason Wu and Thakoon, shown an edge with Ann Demeulemeester and Rick Owens, and appealed to the generally stylish public by advocating J.Crew. At the end of the day, the fact that there&amp;#039;s a daily &amp;quot;Michelle Obama Watch&amp;quot; for every outfit she sports is quite a departure from the stereotype of frumpy office dress on Capitol Hill. Far from an ill-fitting pencil skirt or chunky-heel pumps, these styles are sophisticated, trim and still work-appropriate.
