Landing in Senegal

The First Lady landed in Dakar, Senegal on Thursday wearing a Zero + Maria Cornejo dress from the designer's Pre-Fall 2013 collection. 

Off to Africa

The Obama family left Washington today for their week long trip to Senegal, South Africa, and Tanzania. For her travel attire, Mrs. O went back to a classic - a striped Narciso Rodriguez dress from Resort 2008, first seen at a Florida campaign rally in April 2008. A look at the dress then:

Mrs. O in Carolina Herrera

The President and First Lady attended a dinner given in honor of President Obama at the Orangerie of Schloss Charlottenburg Palace in Berlin, Germany on Wednesday evening. The dinner was hosted by German Chancellor Angela Merkel and her husband Joachim Sauer.

For the occasion, Mrs. O wore a Carolina Herrera Pre-Fall 2013 cocktail dress, as seen in the designer's collection here. Bows at the shoulders and statement earrings by Rene Escobar punctuate the festive, formal look.

Colorblock at the Berlin Wall memorial

The First Lady, joined by her daughters, visited the Berlin Wall Memorial at Bernauer Street in Berlin today. For the visit, Mrs. O wore a colorblock black and white top, black pants and flats. Long strands of pearls from Pearl Paradise accessorized the look.

From Mountains to Jet Planes

The First Lady started her Tuesday with a visit to Wicklow Mountains National Park in Wicklow, Ireland. For the outing with her daughters, Mrs. O wore a green army jacket over a printed blouse. 

Later this afternoon, the Obamas traveled to Berlin, Germany for the next leg of their European tour. Deplaning at Tegel Airport in Berlin, Mrs. O wore flowing black pants and a draped black tunic. A studded belt completed the look.
