Blogs and the tabloid news have been full of comments on Michelle Obama’s fashion sense. But, what can we say for the candidate Obama? We often hear presidential, but if you break that down to fashion terms, we think that translates to classic, conservative, and clean lined. Matching that look to a laptop bag isn’t too hard for us to do.

Skip the backpacks, messenger bags and other non-traditional silhouettes. Our style advice to Senator Obama is to stick with a classic laptop brief, like aaron irvin’s double gusset flap laptop case. While this comes in burnt sienna, we recommend that Senator Obama stick with black for a more presidential look. Another stunning selection suitable for Capitol Hill is mcklein’s harrison partners laptop briefcase. The more structured look is even sharper because of the full grain, oil tanned leather of which it is made. Perfect in Washington is the secure key lock to keep the wrong folks out when the Secret Service is not looking.

As a side note, take a look at the Runway to Change section of the Obama campaign store. You can’t say that he does not have some care for fashion, since his team has tagged the likes of designers Tory Burch, Vera Wang, Juicy Couture, and Diane von Furstenburg to create fashion for his campaign.
