US President Barack Obama’s wife Michelle is keeping it real – the mom-in-chief along with expensive Hollywood interior designer Michael Smith is redecorating the White House with items from the reasonably priced shop Pottery Barn, according to reports. Smith said that he would take design cues from the Obamas'' "casual style" while "utilizing affordable brands."

Michelle's goal is to keep her daughters grounded.
In addition to doing chores despite a huge White House staff, "pretty much we'll see Michelle and the girls in the White House kitchen, trying to bake something together, and her raising them as if they were still in Chicago," family friend Kim Lightford said.
