Michelle Obama and Yara Shahidi teamed up Tuesday for the International Day of the Girl to chat about girls’ education around the world.

We absolutely love when not one but two fierce ladies get together to discuss pertinent issues, and the fact that they just so happened to be flawless in the process is just icing on the cake.

First Lady Michelle Obama donned a gorgeous floral wrap dress with black pumps, while Yara rocked a super chic Alberta Ferretti suit with red heels.

Yara took to Instagram to gush about the experience saying that she was “truly over the moon.”

Truly over the moon ⭐️ Such an inspirational morning discussing girls' education on #internationaldayofthegirl btwn Me, @michelleobama and @cindi_leive + girls around the world! Thank you @glamourmag x @maybelline for sponsoring and putting together such thoughtful programming! More deets to come on how to watch the panel!

Following her appearance, Yara switched her look up and showed it off with a cute dancing post. We all know that wearing sky high heels is only ideal for short periods of time so we love how Yara threw on some fresh Adidas sneakers to give her suit a more dressed down approach.

When @michelleobama makes this young buck feel so at home at the #Whitehouse - Ya just gotta dance…IN THE WHITEHOUSE!! 😘 @albertaferretti x @adidas x @adesamuel 💃🏾

Both FLOTUS and Yara proved that this fall it’s all about fun, fearless takes on classic silhouettes.

Duly noted, ladies!
