It seems as though politician’s wives are becoming more and more fashion conscious.

Following on from Samantha Cameron’s fashionable polka dot Marks and Spencer dress, first lady Michelle Obama has taken on the high waisted belt look.

At an event to kick off a White House leadership and mentoring initiative in Washington, D.C Michelle teamed up her trademark high waisted belt with another, season must have, leopard print.

We’re sure you’ll agree Michelle carries the style off well and it’s good to know our fashion inspiration can come from more than a few celebs.
