Michelle Obama Goes Shopping at Target.

When Michelle Obama proclaimed herself a "Target shopper" during her husband's 2008 election, she wasn't kidding! The First Lady was spotted yesterday doing some incognito shopping at the Target on Route 1 in Virginia. Dressed in a flowered button-down shirt and jeans, Mrs. Obama kept a low profile by donning a Nike cap and oversize aviators.

Back in May, Michelle confided to Oprah that random shopping trips to Target were one of the things she missed most since moving into the White House. But according to the First Lady's communications director, Kristina Schake, "It is not uncommon for the First Lady to slip out to run an errand, eat at a local restaurant or otherwise enjoy the city outside the White House gates." To ensure the First Lady's safety, the AP reports that Secret Service agents were of course present for the excursion.
