The Other Michelle: DC's Fashionable First Lady (PHOTOS)

Look out Mrs. Obama! There's another super-stylish Michelle in town. Michelle Fenty is the wife of D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty, and on the rare occasion that she steps into the spotlight, she looks breathtakingly beautiful. Michelle selects simple but sophisticated dresses, minimal jewelry and clutch purses to form a flawless Washingtonista wardrobe. And despite the native Brit's triple-duty as first lady, practicing lawyer and mother of three, she always manages to look fresh and youthful...we want whatever's in Washington's water!

See what she's been wearing below or read more about D.C.'s other stylish first couple here.

As it is no American Michelle beats the Paris elegance of the French minister of Justice - Rachida Dati, a single mother while in office by the way - whether it be her jewellry or wardrobe. A bliss to look at thanks to her possessing a knowing eye combined with a dream of a figure and an unbeatable smile. Bring on the photos please. Easily done as she is always on her own without escort.

DC is big enough for both women to be fashionable!

This is one of those *I'M SO GLAD,I'M NOT A WOMEN MOMENTS*for me. If she dresses to sexy, she a hoe, if she dresses to conservatively, somethings wrong with her. I say this, if your not going to pay for it. LEAVE IT ALONE!!!! Unless she comes out butt naked, or has a Britteny Spears photo shot, let her and the first lady be. They are trying to portray, themselves, as distinguish lady's, not celebrities!!! . Mechelle(the first lady could do more, and will) with friends like Oprah. Believe me, they will not let her go below a certain standard of dress!! especially when, repping the country. When she is with kids, and date night, she can slide, but for official business, the top sistahs of this country will not let her slide for to long if not at all.
As for The Mayors wife, she can go either way!!!!, but sistahs will be repping her too!!! If she' is in the lime light. Not because she is a bad dresser, but because she speaks for them!!!! TOO.
Black women have it harder because they have hips, and thicker legs, then the average whites or latinos, and need more work to cover any flaws that might exsist on there body's.
Man I'm glad to be a man on this one!!!.
I wish them both the best.

FYI ...

Hips and thicker legs are not "flaws." Its called being shapely, curvacious... being a woman.

I can't believe I'm commenting on such a silly story, but here goes.

Fenty is a good looking woman. Love her style and the fact that unlike our First Lady, she's not afraid to wear clothes that show off her figure. I think our First Lady is sometimes too concerned about that (at least her choices make it appear as such) and she chooses clothes that make her look old, fat, and/or dowdy -- none of which she actually is.

For example, the purple, floral, full, round skirt. I wish she would get rid of that and everything like it. If she's trying to hide her wide hips, STOP IT. WE'VE ALREADY SEEN THEM. If she must, she should choose A-line or bias cut (preferable).

She's pretty. I like pictures 5 and 7.

[duze]

She always looks great. The hair not so much.

[Yovovi]

her hair is ok pulled back, otherwise, it's kinda jacked-up looking. She should cut it if she can't care for it properly.

[pthesmith]

That is exactly what I was thinking. She needs a haircut.

[ChelseaC]

I like her hair.

[huffingt]

Because her name is Michele, doesn;t mean it is fashion.
Michele is interesting because she is the First Lady.

Why is HP always trying to create a competition when it comes to women?

[brooklyncitizen]

Exactly. What a silly thread.

[TchoupitoulasCanal]

Sad, but it seems like there is an article a day comparing two (or more) women to another. What happened to celebrating what makes us unique?

[lamarkpowells]

a little 2 hip-hop what is that suppose to mean

[SoccerNana]

Why wasn't an article like this featured in HP from its beginning through December 2008, while Laura Bush was the First Lady? Why wasn't a "DC's Fashionable First Ladies" article written then?

Explain in details please.

[Patricia84]

because no one cared.

[chocoicecream]

She's really pretty and their twin boys are cute too. I met the Mayor in person once and apart from the BALD head, he is really cute

[eleanorhawking]

LOVE the bracelet. Gorgeous.

[blimie]

She dresses nice, she's pretty but the hair does not work.

[sheikwil4]

I agree, she is pretty, but she needs to find a new hair stylist, her hair just hanging down doesn't doe a thing for her and as a AA women, we can do just about anything with our hair, there are so many different ways we can wear our hair. I know she may be a busy women, but her hair needs work. But I am glad that she and Michele Obama are friends.

Why the attempt to put Mrs. Obama and Mrs Fenty in competition with each other. Stupid.
