Sasha Obama can do it all. The youngest daughter of Barack and Michelle Obama was recently photographed out in Los Angeles. While she's often associated with maxi skirts, tight tops, and bright and colorful accessories, she was photographed in a reliable and comfortable combination of a crop top and sweats, showing that she's not afraid of mixing it up every once in a while.

For the occasion, Sasha wore a grey long-sleeved crop top that she matched with lighter shade sweatpants. She styled her hair in braids and wore her oversized glasses, pairing it all with flip flops and a brown purse.

Over the past year, Michelle Obama has launched a podcast alongside her brother Craig Robinson called "IMO." The pair have been featured on different podcasts and shows, discussing their relationship and their life experiences.
Michelle has opened up about parenting her daughters, Sasha and Malia, especially when it comes to ensuring that they grow up as hardworking people despite their privilege and the access that they had thanks to their parents.

“Once we left the White House, their lives slowly began to inch a little closer toward normalcy,” she continued. “But the truth is, their circumstances have been extraordinary in so many ways—and that forced them to learn critical skills like discipline, flexibility, and determination to go after what they really wanted.”
In her podcast, Michelle has discussed the importance of opening up and letting people in on her life and experiences, even though her first instinct is to keep the messy bits to herself. "It's so easy for us to curl up into this protective instinct and not talk about the messy or more complicated bits of our lives. It can feel dangerous to expose those imperfect parts of ourselves. But over the years, I have learned that it's really the opposite," she said.
