After a jam-packed week starting a new internship and rubbing elbos at an HBO party, Malia Obama took it easy this weekend - grabbing coffee and walking around her New York City neighborhood. 

The former first daughter moved out of her childhood bedroom in the White House and into a Manhattan apartment last month, so she can work this spring at the Weinstein Co. before starting college next fall.

In addition to reading scripts and pitching executives at the production company, the 18-year-old political progeny also mingled with industry types at an HBO party for the series Girls last week, where she also interned two summers ago.

Malia Obama has been taking to the next chapter of her life in New York City like a true pro. She's got the creative internship and the cool closet to go with it.

All-black is practically the New York uniform so it's no surprise Malia stepped out in this ensemble. It's dressed down but she's given it some edge with her must have moto boots which are by luxe label 3.1 Phillip Lim.

These boots will be staples of your off-duty wardrobes and will punctuate your best looks with a heavy dose of designer style. Saying that they do come with a price tag, $695 to be exact.

But this weekend, it looked like President Obama's daughter was taking it easy. 

She was pictured picking up a couple of iced and hot coffees at a Starbucks with a girl friend.  

Malia was already looking the part of a typical New Yorker -  wearing head-to-toe black except for her crisp white Nike sneakers.   

On Monday, it was back to work for the eldest Obama daughter. She donned another all-black outfit including a turtleneck sweater and $695 shearling-lined Chelsea boots by Phillip Lim, covering up with a berry-colored coat and carrying her essentials in a boho-print backpack. 

After her first week of work, Malia unwound during the weekend with a coffee date with a girl friend (above, on Sunday)

The eldest Obama daughter graduated from high school last spring, but is currently taking a gap year before starting at Harvard in the fall.

Before starting her internship, she spent the fall travelling South America and attended the Sundance Film Festival last month. 

Her parents have moved into a new home in the DC neighborhood of Kalorama, so that younger daughter Sasha can finish high school.
