The $500 item Malia Obama owns that's got fashionistas' tongues wagging
Malia Obama and her boyfriend were the talk of Paris recently — but it’s her bag that’s got fashionistas’ tongues wagging.
Spotted in Paris on Sunday ahead of Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s “On the Run II” concert on a walk with her boyfriend, Rory Farquharson, the former first daughter was pictured wearing a short blush pink dress, her signature combat boots, and a stylish suede maroon bucket bag by Mansur Gavriel.
The Italian label has become popular with stylish individuals over the years for its vegetable-tanned leather bucket bags.
The brand’s latest bag, which Obama has, is a fresh update on the classic style, made of suede and in a smaller shape.
The mini bucket bag in Roccoco is available on mansurgavriel.com for $530 ($395 USD).
Obama and Farquharson’s relationship has seemingly been going strong for several months. Obama met her British beau during her first semester at Harvard in 2017. Their relationship was made public in November that year when they were photographed kissing at the Harvard-Yale game. In January, Farquharson and Obama were spotted strolling together around Manhattan.
