The President and First Lady landed in Washington on July 16, and Melania traded in her ball gown for jeans and flats, but kept the glamour with a $10,000 Birkin bag.
Melania Trump is rarely seen without heels, and she just spent a week in Europe wearing designer ball gowns and sky-high Louboutins. When she returned to Washington, D.C. on July 16, she traded in her designer dresses for a classic white button down and fitted skinny jeans. She wisely choose to wear flats while walking across the grass after getting off the plane. But despite her “jeans and a tee” vibe, she looked ultra glamorous with a fresh blowout and carrying a Hermes Birkin Bag, which costs, at least, $10,000. (She has quite a few different colors as well.)
Melania and President Trump went to multiple countries on their visit — Belgium, England, Finland — and she looked polished and perfect in each location. She was seen wearing sky-high heels on the trip, paired with a striped Victoria Beckham dress, a lovely yellow J. Mendel ball gown for a state dinner in England, and again, a yellow dress, this one Gucci, for a meeting with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.
The jeans and button down look is classic and sophisticated. The clean lines are very flattering and elegant, despite the casual nature of the outfit. Her makeup was fresh and pretty — her eyes were defined and her lips were neutral. Unfortunately, the pair landed with the U.S. more divided than ever, with even Republicans shaming and criticizing the President over how he acted in front of world leaders, especially Putin. Time will tell if he is able to win back his base.
