As we all know, President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama are currently in London where they will be visiting the Queen.

While she was visiting Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centre at Charing Cross Hospital, Michelle Obama was spotted in J.Crew. In this photo, she is wearing the Crystal constellation cardigan and Dazzling dots pencil skirt.

Click here for more photos of Michelle with Sarah Brown, the Prime Minister’s wife.

This outfit is so light and fun for a spring day. I think she looks absolutely stunning!

If you’re interested in purchasing either one of the pieces, please click below to shop. I am sure they will go fast!

It’s really nice to see the First Lady in J.Crew again. What are your thoughts on Michelle Obama’s outfit?

The video below shows you the clothes in action. Enjoy!

Update: The Crystal constellation cardigan ($298.00, Item 12280) that Michelle Obama wore in London today is completely sold out. Click the picture below to visit the J.Crew website and get on a waiting list for the sweater.

The Dazzling dots pencil skirt ($158.00, Item 11804) she wore is nearly sold out in every size online. As of this writing, the only sizes available are a 4 and 6. Michelle Obama surely does help J.Crew!

Michelle Obama’s J.Crew ensemble has also appeared on eBay. See the items below.

Thanks so much for this post! Mrs. Obama has been fascinating to watch and this trip to the U.K. is no exception. She looks absolutely fabulous and has a great knack for wearing clothes that make her stand out from the crowd in a completely appropriate way. Cheers to her and J.Crew!

My heart always smiles when I see the First Lady in J. Crew! I have a shorter torso, long-ish legs, and am slightly “hip”-y, too, so I get a ton of inspiration from her. I absolutely love this outfit. The colors are perfect. And the Constellation Cardigan is already sold out. I need to jump on these things sooner!

Regardless of her husband, I have grown to love Mrs. Obama! To be honest, her love of J.Crew has made me like her even more. She’s so classy and her outfits are so timeless. I don’t know about fashion icon, but I love her bold style and how she isn’t afraid to break the first lady mold. Love her!

I’m wearing the Italian deco tank today that she wore on Leno. While I am far from being the First Lady, I may need to also buy her latest look!

What a cutie! The colors are great, they match the happy look on her face. She often looks like she’s laughing or smiling on the inside.

Skirt is so cute, but didn’t ever carry it in my size which is J Crew 0P. Oh well. Not all their items come in Petite sadly. So when I see 0P in some skirts I buy in multiple colors! Too bad that color of green is my favorite color!

I had been waiting for this skirt to go on sale but had to order it last night at full price. Sweater is sold out but I don’t know if I could justify a $300 sweater anyway. She looks stunning! I love following Michelle’s fashion choices and when she is wearing JCrew, all the better.

I love the outfit and Mrs.O for many things including her sense of self and style.

~sadly though the cardi is sold out for the same reasons: I love it and, that Mrs. O probably did too!

We recently stumbled across a great transcript of an earnings call where Drexler answered questions from his investors right after the collapse of Lehman. He addresses the way quality and affordability are getting through the recession and the way Michelle Obama has impacted sales. The way he explains his strategic positioning is amazing.
