More from Footwear News

The former first lady took to social media last night to check in following the latest episode of her new podcast; as she offered meaningful words of motherly advice and thoughts, the best-selling author shared a moment of herself journaling on a scenic patio. She continued her mom-chic style in the black and white image, lounging in a short-sleeve cardigan over a relaxed tank top and classic skinny jeans.

Her first guest on her podcast was none other than her husband, former President Barack Obama. As the two recorded the episode in what appeared to be a family room, Michelle chose a linen top and printed shorts while the former chief of the nation kept up his cool-dad style by layering an untucked button-down shirt with dark-wash jeans and a pair of sustainable sneakers.

His Allbirds Wool Runners have been tagged as carbon-neutral and sustainable, incorporating superfine merino wool into the uppers as well as laces formed from recycled plastic bottles with trademarked Brazilian sugarcane SweetFoam cushioning. The black iteration chosen by Obama retails for $95 at Allbirds.com.

Michelle’s legacy includes numerous campaigns like Let’s Move!, encouraging children to embrace a healthier lifestyle, and the Let Girls Learn initiative, which is dedicated to increasing access to education for girls. Beyond her endless charitable actions and positive influences, the “Becoming” star also turned into a style icon across her eight years in the capital.

Her personal style mixes together everything from affordable J.Crew shoes and accessories to standout glimmering Balenciaga boots from her 2018 interview with Sarah Jessica Parker.
