Sasha Obama may have opted for casual attire for her recent jet-setting adventure, but her nails were far from low-key.
The 22-year-old daughter of Michelle and Barack Obama was photographed striding through the airport in Los Angeles after flying in from New York.
She donned casual sweatpants and a cropped t-shirt for the journey, and opted for chunky clogs and her trusty Telfar bag.
Sasha may have flown under the radar with her everyday look, however her super long, neon nails were hard to miss as they stood out against the neutral hues of her outfit.
She appeared to be traveling solo as she returned home to California where she lives with her sister Malia, 25.
Sasha has inherited her parent's height. IMDB.com lists her as standing 5ft 11 inches tall, which is the same as her mom. (snip)
Sasha carries her height with confidence, while Michelle has confessed to being uncomfortable with her own stature when she was growing up. (snip)
In a personal essay for British Vogue, she further detailed her angst when she wrote: "I was tall. And tall became something to contend with. Tall stood out. 'Tall' became the label that got attached to me first, and it stuck with me right through."
She said she "showed up tall for kindergarten," and topped out at where she is now at the age of 16.
While it was a lengthy journey to accepting and being comfortable in her own skin, she said she eventually found it.
"I'm tall and that's a good thing," she added. "I'm a woman and that's a good thing. I'm Black and that's a good thing. I am myself and that is a very good thing."
Michelle appears to have instilled that confidence into her children, Sasha and Malia.

LOL!
LOL!
I knew when I read that, that was exactly what I was going to see. LOL!
Quite possibly. I just can’t get over how different she looks from just a few short years ago. She and her sister were cute not that long ago. (I don’t know what Malia looks like these days)
Bordering on Rubenesque.
Here's the statue:
With nails like that you’d absolutely need a bidet as well LOL
LOL!
LOL!!
I get it. Different strokes for different folks. Not every woman is getting a particular manicure for the same reason. To some extent, we’re conditioned by a century’s worth of TV and movies. It’s kind of a Hollywood trope to give a femme fatale character an aggressive-looking manicure... like she might scratch your eyes out if you get on the wrong side of her.
I thought the costume party was over in ‘71??
Ha! No way she’d let him in front!!

Yes, but why post it to FR. I really don’t care about any of the wives and children, plus my Idea of who looks good or ugly is going to vary. For example, personally, I do not find Melania attractive at all. Not my type. Besides, these type of comments are always filtered through political viewpoints, which is unfortunate.
I guess she could be related to the obamas?
She does not look anything like either one of them.
When did they change the meaning of statuesque to “fat & ugly”?
When Caliph Baraq and his beard ascended to the throne.
What corner is she working now?
