PHOTOS: Michelle Obama's FLOTUS style Always one to gravitate towards color (and wear it beautifully), the FLOTUS, 51, modeled a mint-hued Carolina Herrera cowl-neck dress, cinched at the waist with a matching skinny belt. Pointed-toe Jimmy Choo heels in a metallic hue completed her ensemble.

We support your call to all world leaders to support the communities most vulnerable to a changing climate and to come together to preserve our precious world for future generations."

He'll then depart for Philadelphia, where he'll see Independence Mall and hold a prayer vigil during the Festival of Families, to name just a few of the activities on his busy schedule.
