Michelle Obama’s three-stop trip to Liberia, Morocco, and Spain is coming to a close, and along with her mission to promote education for girls around the world, she succeeded in making it one of her most fashion-y tours to date.

One helpful reason why: the entirety of the trip was a dude-free zone. While MObama brought both Sasha and Malia, as well as her mother Marian Shields Robinson, Barack was left at home, as she explained cheekily, "because he’s a boy." Pretty solid reason, tbh.

And just like Taylor Swift demonstrated the ideal wardrobe for a Roman holiday this same week, the First Lady wore appropriately floral, paisley, and abstract print dresses for the occasion. Below, all the looks, plus where to shop ‘em.
