GTS: The First Lady and Her J.Crew

Note: I have debated this since I saw the program if I should write an entry about it, after I have read all those comments (not all related to fashion but always something else) on other web sites...However, I am thinking of keeping it straight to fashion, so it shouldn't be a problem. If any, let it be. :)

The First Lady Michelle Obama walked in NBC studio on Tuesday night to sit down with Jay Leno and talk about eating healthy. :)

I didn't watch the show but it was the outfit Michelle had on that caught my attention.

We all know how much Mrs. Obama wears her J.Crew wherever she goes. The latest outfit was a mix of "old and new". She wore the green pencil skirt a couple of years ago when visiting UK (See here). This time she topped it with a Michael Kors (not confirmed) gold embellished short sleeve sweater, a gold skinny belt and finished the look with a pair of sofe pink pointy toe pumps.

It's a very classic silhouette, just like most of her looks, and a almost rococo inspired pastel color game: gold, minty green and soft pink.

It should be pretty easy to copy this look by taking a glance at jcrew.com.

Here are some potential pieces:

J.crew Jackie Pullover in Creamy Peach

She looks great! I'd still love to get my hands on that green skirt.

Hi there. I read somewhere that J.crew might have a special line for the first lady only...so...but with all those color options it shouldn't be very hard to find a drop dead alike piece. :) Did you try ebay?
