Whoops...Michelle Obama caught out by gust of wind
AMERICA'S First Lady wasn't quite prepared for the British weather as she attended a military ceremony at Buckingham Palace today.
Michelle Obama was left holding onto her skirt after a gust of wind sent the First Lady's dress into the air, flashing the photographers and a grinning Prince Philip a glimpse of thigh.
First Lady Obama couldn't help but smile as she struggled to control her skirt and hair as gales blew through Buckingham Palace grounds.

The President's wife struggled to keep control of her hair in Ireland yesterday and today was no different - even the Queen was forced to hold onto her hat as the Scots Guards performed the tribute ceremony.
The Queen, who was dressed in a powder blue suit and matching hat, stood with the president, as ranks of Scots Guards in red jackets and tall hats played the Star-Spangled Banner in honour of the American president and his wife.

A longer 62-gun salute at the Tower of London could be heard throughout the city, heralding the Obamas’ arrival.
The Queen held a private lunch for the Obamas at the palace, and was then to give them a tour of her private picture gallery.
The Queen picked out pieces from her collection that she thought might interest the Obamas, including items from the President’s home state of Hawaii and an exhibit about Abraham Lincoln, the former US president Obama greatly admires.
