Michelle Obama's memoir, Becoming, has gone on sale and to coincide with her book launch, the former first lady rolled out a Becoming 25-piece line of merchandise, (offers sizes S-2XL) filled with clothing and accessories donning inspirational quotes.

Her highly anticipated book chronicles the experiences that have shaped the woman she has become, inviting readers inside of her childhood on the South Side of Chicago, during her time as a young executive that juggled roles in motherhood and work, to how it felt like living and working in the White House. She goes through her successes and failures, both in her family life and in her public persona, and shares what wisdom she has learned along the way.

Seeing how it's an inspirational, motivating book, it only makes sense that Obama created a line of merchandise that tied in some of the famous quotes from the memoir, letting you carry around that kind of encouragement all day long. The collection includes things like enamel pins (one of which is of the Obama family's dog, Bo!) mugs, tote bags, bookmarks, journals, baby onesies, pencils, and a chic collection of womenswear that spans across hats, tees, sweatshirts, and crewneck sweaters.

The full collection is available today, and you can either nab your merch at one of Obama's book tour stops or hop over to becomingmichelleobamashop.com to shop online. All of the net proceeds from the sales will be donated to one of Obama's foundations, Global Girls Alliance, which supports girls' education initiatives across the world. Check out some of the merchandise picks below, and prepare to become inspired.
