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.
Michelle appears to have instilled that confidence into her children, Sasha and Malia.
Confidence?
More like entitlement and arrogance.

Not the hell from where I’m sitting she isn’t.
Moore Rubenesque then statuesque!
Too many late-night collegiate pizza and beer runs!
Personally I think she’d look a lot better if she smiled. Maybe I’m old fashioned.
Oh, the comments there could be to this one, as to how she found it...
Well they got the “esque” part right
Needed to add the Grot part...
Belly fat
When did they change the meaning of statuesque to “fat & ugly”?
Pudgy comes to mind.
FR NEEDS A ‘LIKE’ BUTTON!!!
When you don’t have to do any physical labor in this world (like the rest of us) you can get away with nails like that.
To me, they signal helplessness, ineptitude and/or a willingness to let others do all the dirty work.
But, you know - it’s her birthright. Right? *SMIRK*
That’s a big part of it for me also.
Is that a Telfar bag?
If not, why would the rag misidentify it...?
That’s not a pic of a happy, healthy young lady...
statuesque? a statue of a pig maybe
