As the overseas debut of President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump draws to a close -- the couple is set to return to Washington this weekend -- there was the usual bluster and bravado from the President.
His white-knuckled handshake with France's new president made headlines. The speech to NATO was memorable, as was his brusque, push-aside of the leader of Montenegro to make his way to the front of a pack of world leaders. It was classic, unadulterated Trump, a man the country has come to know for all of the above quirks, mannerisms and machismo.
But this trip was especially telling about Melania Trump, a first lady about whom the country is still learning, four months into her husband's administration.
From the moment she stepped off the plane in Saudi Arabia, it was clear she had given thought to her wardrobe, using the fashion diplomacy tactic that worked so well for her predecessor, Michelle Obama. Her flowing black jumpsuit, by designer Stella McCartney, looked consciously similar to an abaya, the traditional robe garments worn by Muslim women in the region. In Israel, she donned white, a color considered by some Jews to be sacred, and a symbol of purity and peace. To meet the Pope, it was formal black lace with head veil. For Brussels, she donned a tan suit made by a Belgian designer and in Italy, both the Rome and Sicily legs, Trump stuck to outfits by the Italian fashion house of Dolce & Gabbana.....

Like I have been saying.
A Massive Step Up from what came before.
“using the fashion diplomacy tactic that worked so well for her predecessor, Michelle Obama.”
WHAT?
“I think the fact that they are the only first couple to live apart is telling,” says Brower.”

Yeah,for about 3-4 months.
I guess this idiot never heard of Bess Truman,who detested D.C.
.
Just think how proud the folks back in Slovenia must be.
The Daily Mail also did an incredible tribute to Melania with tons of awesome photos and video clips. The nicest one I’ve seen. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4548042/Melania-Trump-signs-winning-hearts-trip.html
YIKES!!! Michelle's too tight layers, too tight sweaters, wrinkled ill fitting pants/skirts, continuos boob belt utilization costumes were a fashion diplomacy tactic...who knew?
A lot of foreign leaders learned that they need to trade up to stay competitive in the wife game.
Of course, the msm never mentions that once the Clintons left the WH, they basically lived separate lives in separate residences.
No one ever talks about the very curious relationship between Hillary and
Huma.
DT is 70 years old and MT, although stunning, is approaching menopause. Perhaps the first bloom is off their romance, but that doesn’t mean there is no affection or commitment between the two of them.
Yikes..continuos=continuous
“YIKES!!! Michelle’s too tight layers, too tight sweaters, wrinkled ill fitting pants/skirts, continuos boob belt utilization costumes were a fashion diplomacy tactic...who knew?”
Yep, they’re still trying to polish that turd.
That’s one lucky airman! God she is beautiful. What a joy to have a real woman as FLOTUS.
Wait... I missed the white knuckle handshake... anyone have pics of the French president’s eyes bugging out?
Delusional.
Anyone know the deal on the ring on right hand. I think she mostly wears that one..or at least on this trip.
You can find it on twitter..along with that bizarre diss of trump ..walking towards him on the left....faking him out..veering to Merkel. I think that deal was intentional.
LOL! Idiots.
NOTHING worked for Michelle Obama on visits to other countries. That is a joke right there.
Fashion diplomacy by the former FLATUS?? It looked more to me like a declaration of war. (And no, FLATUS was not a typo.)
