First Lady fashion face off! Melania and Ivanka Trump join president trip abroad

Melania Trump modeled an orange leather pencil skirt as she and her husband President Donald
Trump embarked on their first foreign trip as the first family.
The 47-year-old First Lady was smiling and holding her husband's hand as they were photographed
walking across the White House's South Lawn towards Marine One for a short trip to Joint
Base Andrews in Maryland, where they boarded Air Force One.
The president's daughter Ivanka Trump is also taking part in the overseas trip, and while
her stepmother donned and edgy Herv Pierre skirt for their flight to Saudi Arabia, she
opted for a ladylike floral dress.
Trump, Melania, Ivanka, and her husband Jared Kushner flew out on Friday for the first leg
of their nine-day journey. The president and his wife will be making
stops in Saudi Arabia, Israel, Rome, Brussels, and Sicily during their first foreign tour
of his presidency. Ivanka, who has an unpaid position as the
president's assistant, will be with her father and her stepmother for six of the nine days
of the trip, traveling with them to Saudi Arabia, Israel, and Italy.
The trip also includes an audience with Pope Francis at the Vatican.
For her flight, Melania paired her custom leather skirt with a Max Mara cream top and
Manolo Blahnik heels, completing her look with her oversize engagement ring and Jackie
O-inspired sunglasses.
Meanwhile, Ivanka sported a figure-hugging pencil dress featuring cap sleeves.
Like the First Lady, Ivanka also donned a pair of nude pumps; however, she opted for
a budget-friendly pair of $135 suede heels from her eponymous fashion line.
Melania announced that she would be joining her husband on the trip on Wednesday.
'I am very excited for the upcoming trip,' Melania said in a press release. 'This will
not just be an opportunity to support my husband as he works on important matters of national
security and foreign relations, it will also be my honor to visit and speak with women
and children from different countries, with different perspectives.'
Trump will be accompanied by his wife throughout each day, but the First Lady will also travel
to participate in her own events including spousal programs at the NATO and G-7 summits.
She is also expected to deliver remarks to the United States military personnel and families
in Italy.
The White House isn't releasing a comprehensive itinerary for Melania, citing security concerns.
A White House official revealed on Friday that Ivanka would also be traveling with the
president to Saudi Arabia, Israel and Italy. The official was not authorized to be quoted
by name discussing the details of the plan in advance of the formal announcement and
spoke on condition of anonymity. According to the person, Ivanka will join
her father for some events, but she is also expected to hold some of her own during the
international tour. In Saudi Arabia, Ivanka will take part in
a roundtable discussion with Saudi women about women's economic issues.
The First Daughter wants to hear about the challenges women in the country face and the
progress they have made, the official said. In Israel, Ivanka, who converted to Judaism
when she married her husband Jared in 2009, will visit the Western Wall with the president.
And in Rome, she will take part in a discussion about human trafficking with the Community
of Sant'Egidio, an aid group with ties to the Vatican. She will also take part in a
meeting with the Pope. The meetings build on some issues she has
already worked on at the White House, as she has held meetings on both women's economic
empowerment and human trafficking. President Trump and his wife, who lives in
New York, kicked off Mother's Day weekend last Friday, by celebrating military mothers
at the White House. She was all smiles as she watched the president
address the crowd at the event, which was held on National Military Spouse Appreciation
Day. The two were also joined by First Daughter Ivanka.
During the event, he praised Melania saying he had become 'so popular'.
The president paid tribute to his wife and the 'great moms' of America before choosing
to spend Mother's Day morning playing golf at one of his clubs.
'Wishing @FLOTUS Melania and all of the great mothers out there a wonderful day ahead with
family and friends!' tweeted Trump, who spent Sunday morning at the Trump National Golf
Club, in Sterling, Virginia. Melania had also tweeted a simple 'Happy Mother's
Day'.
