If Michelle Obama wasn't busy being the FLOTUS and all, she could easily dabble in styling. Michelle has a knack for matching the most appropriate outfit to the event she's attending. While she's aware that state dinners require red carpet-worthy gowns and conferences are just right for flouncy knee-length numbers, celebrating Black History Month with a gracious and lively 106-year-old woman calls for something truly special. That's an excuse for a white dress so lovely, you could wear it to your own wedding.

Much to our delight, Ms. Obama welcomed an excited Virginia McLaurin into the Blue Room in an asymmetrical, lace-paneled design perfect for dancing. She finished her outfit with flashy metallic pumps and silver jewels, all of which played up her glow. Read on to watch Michelle shine in a look that's more elegant than trendy and, frankly, just right for dancing, then shop for similar styles.
