Sunny in the Buckeye State

The first lady spoke at Cuyahoga Community College in Cleveland, Ohio today. For the appearance, Mrs. O wore a sunny, embellished L'Wren Scott cardigan (previously seen in March, here) paired with pinstripe grey trousers. Love the optimistic hue! A Miriam Haskell crystal and pearl necklace completed the look.

Any style predictions for the debate tomorrow night?
