Michelle Obama's latest outfit, which combines a cute Bottega Veneta bag with baggy cargo pants, perfectly encapsulates the former First Lady's post-White House style.

Obama—whose stylist is Meredith Koop—has been cultivating a brand new aesthetic since her husband's presidency ended. On Thursday, April 17, the former-FLOTUS was photographed in Los Angeles with her brother, Craig Robinson, who also just so happens to be her new podcast co-host. For the outing, Obama carried a Bottega Veneta Small Arco Intrecciato Leather Tote Bag in black, which retails for $3,700.

The Becoming author wore an almost entirely olive green outfit. She matched her cardigan to a V-neck sweater in the same shade, while her baggy cargo pants, which were cuffed above her ankles, were a lighter khaki green. Obama completed the sleek outfit with brown slingback pumps and gold knot earrings, while she wore her long hair in a ponytail.

I dunno... This might prove that Mooch is a female....

Because only a female would pay $3,700 for three dollars worth of leather and three dollars worth of sewing.

Sir Publius
(GENTLE HUG AND CHASTE SMOOCH)

I could paddle down the Androscoggin in those.
(Gotta bail before the Rapids or the Falls though!)

Seriously..fashion models have the same problem.
They turn sideways, they look like the letter L!

My feet are now a size 6, (I’m almost 70, after all!)
But in my prime, they were a petite 5 1/2.

Dear Lady Ms. B,

(GENTLE HUG AND CHASTE SMOOCH RETURNED)

I'm still size 12. Gotta get your size 6s out of the way of those.

He would NEVER do that!
My lord husband is a gentleman!

Besides, he would face the wrath of His lady wife should he try to clean you clock.

My clock runs pretty well as it is. I don’t think it needs cleaning.
