Michelle Obama is Pretty & All Smiles for the Essence August 2014 Issue
She is arguably the coolest US First Lady ever, and she is on the cover of Essence‘s August 2014 issue.
Looking stunning and pretty in a ‘Michelle Obama

dress with a floral detail brooch and her signature faux-bob facing a

In the issue, Michelle shares her highly
