Get Michelle Obama’s $10 Gap T-Shirt!

Samantha Appleton

Michelle Obama has become a fashion icon to many, but we’re particularly loving her ability to mix high and low with ease. While hosting a lunch for former First Lady Nancy Reagan at the White House, Michelle paired her luxe white boucle Michael Kors skirt with a striped T-shirt from the Gap as well as its coordinating floral cardigan. Both Gap pieces come out to only $35 total– that’s a lot of style for a little price. We can’t wait to see what affordable fashion she’ll wear next! In the meantime, pick up her Gap striped t-shirt, $10 at gap.com as well as her Gap floral cardigan, $25 also at gap.com.

Spotted: Penn Badgley sporting some major new facial hair growth. The Gossip Girl star (and real-life boyfriend to costar Blake Lively) is saying good-bye to his clean-shaven baby face and adding some serious facial hair that borders on a beard. Could this be Dan’s new grown-up college look? Or is Penn just taking a more relaxed approach to his personal grooming these days while on hiatus from the CW show? Either way, we want to know what you think of his new hipster look. Tell us: Do you prefer Penn clean-shaven or hairy?

Kendra Wilkinson might be busy finalizing plans for her upcoming nuptials to football star Hank Baskett, but the bride-to-be is still finding time to keep in shape with a pinup-worthy workout — which she’s just announced she’ll bring to market soon. The former Girls Next Door star, who recently told PEOPLE.com that the active couple hikes, bikes and spends time in the bedroom to maintain their hot bodies, is adding a new routine to her fitness regimen: hitting the pole! “I’m an outdoors girl so it’s hard to find fun ways to exercise in my house that keep me from getting bored,” she says in a post on her Web site. “I’m like a little monkey and love to swing around on things. So that’s why I decided to create my own line of sports poles which will be coming out soon!” And stay tuned: The former centerfold, who recently took a professional lesson with fitness instructor Estee Zaka to finesse her pole work, also promises to post her own video of pole workout tips on her Web site. Tell us: Would you work out on a “sports pole”?
