Chicago, IL (CNS) -- Oprah Winfrey believed in Barack Obama so much, she already had her presidential inauguration dress picked out. Now, she will get to wear the dress she's had picked out for months to President Barack Obama's inauguration in January.

When Winfrey called in to Ed Lover at Power 101.5FM in New York, she revealed that she created a vision board with a picture of her dress that she wanted to wear to the inauguration on the board.

"So help me God, I am looking at it right now," Winfrey told Lover. "Actually, I started in February. I was speaking with Michelle [Obama] and Caroline Kennedy and Maria Shriver. We were all doing a big rally out in California. At the end of the rally Michelle Obama said something powerful: 'and I want you to leave here and envision Barack Obama taking the oath of office.'"

"I created a vision board. I had never had a vision board before. I came home, I got me a board and I put Barack Obama's picture on it and I put a picture of my dress I want to wear to the inauguration. Last week I said to the stylist, 'Take it out of the closet. Let's take it out. Let's hang it up, and let it air out,' " she said.

Oprah Winfrey will get to wear that dress with Obama's victory as the 44th President of the United States. She was seen at Obama's Chicago speech joined along with longtime partner Stedman Graham and Gayle King. A teary Winfrey looked on at Obama's first speech as President.
