Which do you think is Michelle Obama's best look so far?
Take a look and vote for your favourite!
While the world is busy deciphering the political content of US President Barack Obama's visit to India, fashionistas are busier dissecting his wife's fashion statements, giving preference to parkas over Pakistan and cashmere over Kashmir.
In case you haven't been able to catch her many different looks on the news (where do you live, really?), we bring you her Indian wardrobe in pictures.
So here's Mrs O on the go -- like her style? Let us know!
We kept our eyes peeled when the Obamas boarded their aircraft on Friday, waiting to catch a glimpse of what Michelle was wearing to India -- a blue printed dress, over-the-knee boots and a beige jacket.
Chic and sensible enough for a flight, but the thought of her landing in sweltering Mumbai decked out in winterwear had us sweating!
Whatever would happen to that perfect coif?
And disappointingly, there were no desi twists, although it is believed that her outfits on this trip are mainly by Indian-American designers like Naeem Khan and Rachel Roy.

And it wasn't just the understated outfit that matched -- her attitude did too, as she joined in playing a tambourine and had a game of hopscotch with the little ones.
