America’s smart sisters are doin’ it with style

Sasha and Malia Obama have shown poise and grace while growing up in the public eye. As they visit Ireland, Rachel Marie Walsh looks at their Mum-influenced fashion choices

THE First Lady always adds glamour to any event but fashion fans will be just as keen to see the style choices of her daughters Malia and Sasha in Ireland for the G8 summit this week. Michelle Obama and her girls will reportedly be staying at Dublin’s Shelbourne Hotel and are expected to attend a number of events while President Barack Obama is at the summit in Fermanagh.

Malia and Sasha were just sweet little girls when their parents visited in 2011 but have swiftly grown into poised, intelligent young women their parents can’t stop talking about. Sasha turned 12 last week and Malia, who currently stands a model-esque 5’11, will be 15 on July 4.
