PICTURE EXCLUSIVE: Malia Obama steps out with mystery man for the SECOND TIME in a month
Former first daughter Malia Obama was the epitome of laidback LA style on Tuesday when she stepped out for a food and drink run with the same mystery man that she was pictured enjoying a stroll with just last week.
The eldest daughter of former President Barack Obama, 24, kept it casual for the outing in a pair of mom jeans and an oversized, blue hoodie.
Her unnamed companion, for his part, donned a black sweatshirt and baggy, green trousers. Both of them completed their looks with sandals – with Malia opting for a pair of Boston Vegan Birkenstocks while the mystery man wore Arizona Birkenstocks.
The two seemed in good spirits as they went for a stroll in Los Angeles, California, appearing totally at ease with one another, occasionally smiling and laughing as they chatted enthusiastically.
Malia – who is currently working as a screenwriter on Donald Glover’s upcoming Amazon show – pulled part of her long, braided hair up into a bun but left the rest loose around her face. She went makeup free for the excursion.
