Melania Trump gets in the festive spirit in a red chequered Gabriela Hearst Trench coat

Melania Trump got into the Christmas spirit after attending the annual national Christmas tree lighting ceremony in Washington, DC yesterday with her husband, Donald Trump. The former model was pictured in a stylish Gabriela Hearst Trench coat that embodied the festive times.

Hearst is one of first daughter Ivanka Trump’s favourite designers to wear, though Melania has worn her designs from time to time.

For the Christmas tree lighting, Melania opted for an effortlessly glamorous makeup that consisted of heavily lashed eyelids, contoured, bronzed and rouged cheeks – that provided Melania with a warm glow in the cheeks – smokey eye shadow and matte pink lipstick.

The First Lady of America appeared to be sporting a freshly trimmed hairstyle with the length appearing to be slightly shorter than usual, her fringe also appeared to be more cropped and defined.

Melania kept her caramel coloured locks down in a natural wake on top of her shoulders.

She was joined on stage by husband, President Donald Trump who, for the occasion, opted for a dark trench coat, black trousers, a crisp white shirt, and a striking blue tie.
