Michelle in a Midi

Friday afternoon First Lady Michelle Obama made an appearance at a nonprofit award ceremony in one of this season’s latest styles.

Mrs. Obama attended the 2011 Military Child of the Year award ceremony, in Arlington, VA. Each year five military children are honored in this ceremony as a part of Operation Homefront, a national nonprofit organization which provides emergency financial aid and other assistance to military members and their family.

At this event, Michelle was dressed in a white and brick red, graphic print top, which she wore tucked inside a long, slim-fitting skirt. She cinched in her waist with her signature accessory, a thick belt, and wore her hair back with drop earrings.

With no full length pictures of the skirt, the only question is how long was it? Did the first lady go with a full-length skirt? Or perhaps she opted for this spring’s latest midi (mid-length skirt), a style which Vogue has popularized this season (seen here).

What is your guess?
