We've all been there. You needed to leave the house five minutes ago but are still grappling with your outfit.

Obama appeared on the Today show wearing the Rachel Comey Sunder Stripe Viscose Dress ($675) with matching white pumps that looked crisp and put-together. Obama was on the show to celebrate International Day of the Girl and to reveal her latest project, The Global Girls Alliance, which supports young girls' education around the world.
"When girls get the opportunities they deserve, amazing things start to happen; poverty goes down, economies grow, families get stronger, and babies are born healthier," the program's website explains. "And the world, by all accounts, gets better." How can you possibly argue with that? Scroll down to see Obama's outfit and shop the look for yourself.
