As if we needed another reason to fall in love with our Forever First Lady Michelle Obama, the best-selling author and current ESSENCE cover girl came thru dripping in a major, high-fashion lewk this week in New York.

Obama stepped out last night at the Brooklyn Barclay’s Center to promote her #1 fastest-selling book of 2018, ‘Becoming’ ($20). Greeted onstage by the evening’s hostess and fellow style icon, Sarah Jessica Parker, Lady O. wasn’t dressed in her normal ‘all-white-everything’ book tour attire. This time, she stepped down from fashion heaven to serve us holiday style goals in a radiant, yellow tie-waist satin dress paired with thigh-high, shimmering metallic boots. Her killer heels were designed by Balenciaga and are aptly called their “Knife Over-The-Knee” boots, which are currently available for purchase and retail online for a whopping $3,900. (USD). Of course, Mrs. Obama had us swooning over her perfectly tailored outfit crafted by her longtime fashion stylist, Meredith Koop, and because we know you want her boots just as much as we do, we’ve curated a special list of hot and sexy holiday styles that won’t break the bank. Click here to claim your holiday and NYE sparkle and shine bright like our Forever First Lady, xo!
