MOSCOW (AP) — Russia's first lady Svetlana Medvedeva has taken Michelle Obama and her two daughters on a tour of the Kremlin.

They toured the Kremlin as President Barack Obama held talks with Russia's President Dmitry Medvedev on arms control and other issues.

The fortified Kremlin is a leading tourist attraction in Moscow as well as where the presidential offices are situated.

Michelle Obama and daughters Malia and Sasha toured the Kremlin's Winter Garden and the Cathedral of the Assumption.

They also visited the Armory, which boasts a large collection of imperial regalia, and the State Diamond Fund, home to the 190-carat Orlov diamond and the world's largest sapphire.

The Obama family's Kremlin tour came just hours after they arrived in Moscow on Monday afternoon.

The high belt is designed to create the illusion of longer legs,draw the eye upwards, and accentuate the vertical dimension, so that it doesn’t focus on the...horizontal dimension.

Why does she insist on wearing short sleeves....she has long arms and make her tops look like she has grown out of it.
Actually she looks like Clyde in any which way but loose.

Either she got a two-fer on the belts or one with interchangeable buckles(the one she yesterday was clear with a purple buckle)

She looks decidely unhappy...
