Also yesterday, First Lady Mrs. O was at the Eisenhower Executive Office Building to announce a $45 million commitment by several foundations and private philanthropists to be used as matching funds for social programs chosen by Social Innovation Fund. For more information on the fund and donations, click here.

For her appearance, Mrs. O wore a black dot twist front tank with eyelash trim, paired with a black embroidered dot micro-pleated skirt, both by Jason Wu. The ensemble first debuted last summer, seen here, actually here (thanks Bevi!). Yesterday, Mrs. O paired the ensemble with her signature Alaia belt and a stack of diamond bangles.

Mrs. T,

Didn't Mrs. O also wear this skirt last spring when she toured the 10 Downing Street gardens with then PM Brown's wife Sarah?

Oh yes, Bevi, you're right! I've updated the post. Thank you!

Yeah, she's wearing diamond bangles again!

Do you really think all those bangles are diamonds? More likely they are rhinestones/crystals//zirconium.

@ Avo, I'm eyeballing those bangles too! I like how FLOTUS accessorizes her outfits just right, not too much nor too little. Sometimes I tend to be a little heavy handed with jewelry. Coco Chanel said it best, "when leaving the house, take off one thing (accessory) then go" or something to that effect. It's a good motto to live by. This outfit looks different from before, I guess it's because she wore it with the turquoise cardi. Jason Wu's clothes really suit her well. I like this one, being that polka dots are my favorite print. It's a good look for our Michelle.

Very fashion and the belt cuts the print making the dress more stunning. Bracelets are a perfect match. I'm seeing a lot of belts this season, all shapes and sizes and I luv 'em.

I liked this outfit very much when I first saw it and still like it. Black/white print is always a winner!
