Jill Biden‘s shopping spree on Nantucket on Wednesday included a stop in Ladybird Lingerie, known for its ‘beautiful yet comfortable’ undergarments.
The window showed an array of lace bras and panties to choose from.
Dr. Biden and her daughter Ashley Biden spent over an hour visiting several local shops in the historic downtown area.
The first lady wasn’t spotted carrying any bags, but her personal assistant was with her and could make arrangements to have anything she purchased delivered.
The mother and daughter duo hit about a dozen high-end shops on the posh island off the coast of Massachusetts.
Jill Biden, wearing skintight brown leather leggings and black high-heeled ankle boots, even got a gift from Town Pool, a Nantucket-themed store. She received a t-shirt that read ‘Biden’ in the shape of the island.

Jill and Ashley arrived on Nantucket on Tuesday night with President Joe Biden to spend the Thanksgiving holiday. Hunter Biden, his wife Melissa and son Beau were also on the flight.
Only the mother and daughter hit the downtown area on Wednesday. The weather was sunny and in the 50s – a perfect day to shop ahead of the Black Friday crowds.
The Bidens are staying at the $34 million luxurious compound owned by billionaire businessman turned philanthropist David Rubenstein.
The 13-acre compound has a 13,000 square foot house, a private beach, and private dock.
It’s a sprawling property that sits on the island’s secluded inner harbor with gorgeous views of the water as the sun sets in the background.
Rubenstein bought the waterfront property in 2000 for his now ex-wife Alice and their three children. He tore down the existing house and put up a 13,000-square-foot home which features a tennis court, swimming pool, hot tub and private dock.
Zillow estimates it would cost $30,000 a month to rent.

The house is located on historic Abrams Point off of Polpis Road – named after one of the last surviving Native Americans of the Wampanoag people, Abram Quary.
The island has been making preparations for the presidential arrival. A cargo plane landed last week with the necessary equipment needed to transport and guard the president.
Coast Guard boats have been circling the waters around the island.

The amount of staff, security and reporters following the president where ever he goes numbers into the hundreds. Local hotels are booked and restaurants are preparing for the influx of people.
The Bidens have been going to Nantucket for 49 years, dating back to when Biden was a U.S. senator.
In his 2017 memoir ‘Promise me Dad,’ Biden wrote that Thanksgiving in 1975 was the first holiday he and his now-wife Jill spent together, going to Nantucket with his young sons Beau and Hunter for a little bonding time.
They rarely have missed a holiday on Nantucket since.
One of the few Thanksgivings the Bidens missed there was in 2015, which took place about six months after Beau Biden died.
The family went to Rome instead. They also skipped going in 2020 because of the pandemic.

The island became a spot of many memories for the family. Beau proposed to his future wife Hallie at the town’s 2001 Christmas Tree lighting and married her at a downtown church.
‘We had some great years in that span, and we had some lousy years, but whatever was happening, whatever bumps and bruises we were suffering, we put it all aside and celebrated Thanksgiving in Nantucket,’ the president wrote in his memoir.
‘The holiday trip was a constant in our grandchildren’s lives from the time they were aware, and they made it clear how much it meant to them.’
This year the Bidens will stay on Nantucket until Saturday, when they are scheduled to return to Washington D.C.
