"Just how confident is the first lady in her sense of fashion? As The New York Times tells it, she made it well known at the start of the president&amp;#39;s first term that she didn&amp;#39;t want anyone butting in when it came to her wardrobe, thankyouverymuch.\nPinterestFacebookIn yesterday&amp;#39;s Sunday Styles section, Cathy Horyn took a look at Michelle Obama&amp;#39;s legacy and the role fashion has played in shaping it. While some political wives have gotten flack for being too into clothes, she says, Mrs. O&amp;#39;s profile has, if anything, benefitted from her fabulous wardrobe. And once she landed on a signature style, she told her team to back off: &amp;quot;According to &amp;#39;The Obamas,&amp;#39; a book by Jodi Kantor, a reporter for The New York Times, once Mrs. Obama &amp;#39;saw how she looked with top-flight clothes and styling, one friend said, there was no going back.&amp;#39; Early on, the first lady made it clear to her advisers, Ms. Kantor noted, that her wardrobe choices were not to be questioned.&amp;quot;\nAnd thank goodness for that, right? If she&amp;#39;d paid attention to the politicos, we may have had another boring term of red and blue suits paired with a single strand of pearls, instead of the unforgettable parade of power looks she&amp;#39;s given us over the past four years. What do you ladies think of Mrs. O taking control of her own image? Are you impressed? And are you excited to see what the next four years of her wardrobe will look like?
