Michelle Obama Slips Into a transparent Tiered Dress for Date Night With Barack

Michelle Obama is in an era of transition—transitioning away from saying yes to things she doesn't want to do, and from living with the restrictions she put up for herself when she was the first lady of the United States. And this era, I have to say, has great fashion.
On Tuesday evening, the Becoming author was seen stepping out for a romantic date night with her husband, former President Barack Obama, in New York City.
The two coordinated in elegant black looks. Barack opted for a sleek black suit and matching dress shoes, while Michelle chose a fun and flirty little black dress. The midi dress was tiered and featured frilly details along the neckline and throughout.
The ruffles along the horizontal pleats moved as Michelle walked, proving this dress was made for dancing. And the long sleeves featured transparent panels, revealing just the right amount of skin.
Michelle expertly paired the black date-night dress with pointy black leather slingbacks with small heels. She carried a horizontal black leather clutch and accessorized with chunky, oversize silver hoops.
Mrs. Obama's hair was styled into a long braid, and she wore a perfect smoky eye.
The couple was photographed leaving the Lowell Hotel restaurant and heading into a black car, surrounded by their security detail. Their date night comes weeks after Michelle addressed those pesky divorce rumors (which stemmed from her deciding to skip some public events, like Donald Trump's inauguration).
'The interesting thing is that, when I say 'no,' for the most part people are like, 'I get it, and I'm okay,'' she said during an interview on Sophia Bush's Work in Progress podcast. 'That's the thing that we as women... we struggle with disappointing people. I mean, so much so that this year people were... they couldn't even fathom that I was making a choice for myself that they had to assume that my husband and I are divorcing.'
