Michelle Obama wears Mary Katrantzou for tea with Prince Harry: lovely?

Something about seeing Prince Harry and Michelle Obama together (again!) gave me flutters. It’s not that I think Harry has a crush on the First Lady or anything, but it feels like they belong together in some way. Harry is arguably the most popular member of the royal family, and Michelle is arguably the most popular member of the first family. So of course Michelle had to stop by Kensington Palace on Tuesday morning to have tea with Harry. Michelle brought Sasha, Malia and Marian Robinson (Michelle’s mom) to the tea as well. Do you think Sasha and Malia have little crushes on Harry too?

The First Lady came to London for a two-day trip to launch the Let Girls Learn initiative, which helps fund girls’ education in developing nations, nations that have historically deprioritized education for girls and women. You can read more about the initiative here. Harry and Michelle spoke about the initiative as well as their ongoing work with wounded warriors and with military families. A palace spokeperson said: “Prince Harry was interested to hear from the First Lady about the Let Girls Learn initiative to further adolescent girls’ education around the world, which is the focus of her visit to the United Kingdom.” The spokesperson also said Harry was “very pleased” to host Michelle, Sasha and Malia for tea. Ten bucks says that Michelle laid some mom-guilt on Harry about finding a nice girlfriend.

On a superficial note – because I know people actually do care about this and because we haven’t covered Michelle’s fashion in a while – Michelle’s paisley dress was Mary Katrantzou Pre-Fall 2015. People seem to love it! I think it’s okay – I don’t really get Michelle’s affection for fuller skirts. If I had her amazing body, I would be wearing pencil skirts all the time.
