We can't be sure if Michelle Obama [1]'s had this outfit in her closet for some time, or if she just went shopping after her vacation with Barack [2]. What we do know is that there's something so laid-back about her brand-new look. The former FLOTUS was spotted leaving Upland restaurant in New York [3] in a tailored gray coat and classic trousers.
Her separates were no doubt sophisticated, but her slouchy striped blouse that she unbuttoned at the top, hoop earrings, and edgy chain-link Alexander Wang bag gave off relaxed vibes. We predicted that Michelle would keep her wardrobe in tip-top shape [4] after leaving the White House, and she didn't disappoint. As it turns out, Michelle has mastered everyday businesswoman style with ease.
Scroll for a look, then shop the must-have bag that added a unique touch to her simple suit.
