Sasha wore a comfortable and stylish outfit made up of a long jean skirt and a tight teal top. She wore a green cardigan to keep herself warm and styled her look with various accessories, including bracelets, chunky rings, her glasses, and a necklace with a large round pendant. 

She completed the look with some flip-flops, and a large brown purse, showing off her long and braided hair.

Sasha was spotted walking down the streets of Los Angeles and picking up a pile of books. Among the books, there was Richard Power's "Bewilderment," a novel following a man and his son as they cope with the grief of the loss of their wife and mother. 

The instance marks Sasha's first public appearance since the wildfires that struck the city where she lives, which include five fires that affected various locations in Los Angeles County. While all fires are mostly contained as of this writing, the devastation has been immense, with the Palisades fires burning over 23,000 acres of land. 

Many people, including celebrities, have lost their homes and have been living with friends and family over the past month.

Michelle revealed that she tried not to react too much after learning the news. 

"So I just said, 'Okay, well that's interesting that you guys are going to try living together. We'll see how it goes,'" she said to PEOPLE. "But yeah, it feels good to know that the two girls you raised find solace at a kitchen table with one another. It's like the one thing you want for them."
