We Forgot How Cute These Boots Were Until We Saw Them on Michelle Obama

It's a bittersweet, picture-perfect moment: Michelle Obama welcoming the White House's Christmas tree for the last time. But while many may be wondering where Malia and Sasha were for the joyful occasion — Michelle's nephews, Austin and Aaron Robinson, stood by her side instead — our most pressing questions were, admittedly, fashion related. Such as, "Hey, Michelle? Where did you get those shoes?!"

The first lady's footwear choice happened to be trendy black mid-calf boots, which paired perfectly with black pants, a fit-and-flare coat, and hoop earrings. They reminded us that there's more out there than over-the-knee and ankle options and to snag a pair ASAP, especially while sales are going on.
