Just because she represents the country doesn't mean she has to dress like a cardboard box.

I think it is common knowledge that Michelle Obama was the best dressed first lady. She took the boring conservative style of a usual first lady and turned it into a high fashion must-have look.

From her first Inauguration Ball to some of her last days as First Lady she never disappointed. Some people considered her style too "sexy" for First Lady, but HELLO... she's a woman! Just because she represents the country doesn't mean she has to dress like a cardboard box and play it safe.

She took so many fashion risks while in the White House and that is why we are celebrating those looks today.

Let's all look back and enjoy the looks of our favorite first lady. These looks aren't listed in any particular order. When thinking about her looks I realize I could never put a whole lookbook together because her style is just that good!

These are some of her best looks but also memorable! Once a fashion icon...always an icon!

1. China State Dinner 2015 - Vera Wang


Even Barack is digging the look!

2. Inaugural Ball 2009 - Jason Wu


The first time we ever saw Michelle as the first lady! Such a special night and historical night! An all-time favorite look.

3. Dinner with the British Queen 2011- Ralph Lauren


She and Barack are goals! They are still killing the game six years later and Michelle really wasn't messing around with this look.

4. The Kennedy Center Honors Reception 2013 - Marchesa


Emerald green is one of her best colors! She outdid Barack in this look.

5. Congressional Black Caucus Foundation Annual Phoenix Awards 2013 - unknown


Her signature belt is from J Crew!

6. BET Black Girls Rock 2015 - Zac Posen


One of my favorite looks on her!

7. Congressional Black Caucus Foundation Annual Phoenix Awards 2015 - Tadashi Shoji


She rocks the floral print!

8. State of the Union 2016 - Narciso Rodriguez


This started an internet frenzy because of the color. Is it orange or yellow? The dress was sold out that day online. SEE?!?!? TRENDSETTER.

9. State Dinner 2016 - Atelier Versace


This is personally my favorite look she has ever worn. This was the final official visit and state dinner of Barack's presidency and, of course, they saved the best for last.

10. State Dinner in honor of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau- Jason Wu


This print is perfect. She is the biggest fan of Jason Wu.

11. White House Correspondents' Dinner 2016 - Givenchy


SHE IS NOT MESSING AROUND!

12. State Dinner in honor of the prime minister of Singapore 2016 - Brandon Maxwell


Barack gives it a thumbs up!

I started with five best looks and ended up with 12. When going through her looks I realized that only five looks was not realistic.

Comment below some of your favorite looks from Michelle!

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.
