First Lady Mrs. O paid a visit to the Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. today, joined by Malia and Sasha Obama, and of course, Bo!

Per the Washington Post:

"First lady Michelle Obama, daughters Sasha and Malia and Bo -- that celebrity hound -- paid a Christmas season visit to young patients at Children's National Medical Center on Tuesday afternoon. Continuing a tradition begun by Bess Truman for spreading holiday cheer, the first lady greeted patients, thanked hospital staff for their work and read 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' to about 50 children along with their parents and caregivers."

For his holiday appearance, Bo sported a red and white furry collar, adorned with jingle bells. Mrs. O added a bit of sparkle to her top, pairing a red v-neck with her diamond Garavelli brooch.

Our friends at W Magazine have shared a fabulous new detail. The pave diamond flower pin that the first lady wore for her interview with Oprah, and also in Oslo, Norway, is a custom piece by the Italian-based jewelry company Garavelli. The pin was purchased by the president as an anniversary gift for Mrs. O, secured from their favorite Chicago jeweler. Lovely!
