Melania Trump continued her Manolo Blahnik BB pump streak yesterday for a “Be Best” panel on vaping at the White House. The first lady looked chic in a charcoal-gray dress, which she teamed with python-print shoes. Animal print in all forms — from leopard to cow — is a major trend for fall ’19 and into spring ’20, but snakeskin may be the biggest must-have of all. Snake print appears on nearly everything this season, and Melania found a way to incorporate the reptilian look without sacrificing her style. After all, the BB pump has long been a staple of...

The White House fired back after social media users criticized first lady Melania Trump over a coat she wore in a photo tweeted by President Trump on Wednesday to mark the 18th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks. White House spokesperson Stephanie Grisham, who previously worked with the first lady, told USA Today it was "ridiculous" that some Twitter users called the coat insensitive.

The Givenchy number is from the brand’s...
