Back home, back to basics! Melania dresses down in denim jeans and a white shirt as she returns to D.C. after flaunting an array of luxury high-end fashions during week-long Europe trip

Melania Trump went for a casual look as she and her husband returned to Washington, D.C. on Monday night, after a week-long trip to Europe during which she showed off lavish fashions.

The first lady, 48, wore a simple white button-down shirt tucked into slim jeans as she and President Donald Trump, 72, walked across the South Lawn.

She completed her relaxed outfit with a pair of navy flats — likely giving her feet some rest after spending much of the past week in designer heels — and a matching Hermes Birkin purse.

Melania, who wore her hair down in a sleek blowout, buttoned her shirt all the way up and rolled up her sleeves to perfect her casual-but-chic look.

On the make-up front, she went for neutral shades, lining her eyes with black eyeliner and dark eye shadow and finishing off her look with nude lipstick.

Her husband, meanwhile, went for a dark suit, white shirt, and red tie, a look he often favors.

Donald and Melania touched down in D.C. on Monday following the president’s first summit with Russia’s Vladimir Putin, which took place in Helsinki and left a wake of confusion and outrage in the U.S.

After a remarkable 45-minute joint press conference, the White House struggled to explain why Trump aligned so closely with the Russian leader, a chief geopolitical foe.

Several prominent Republicans expressed disappointment with the president’s performance. Intelligence officials publicly broke from the president’s comments about Russian meddling in the 2016 campaign.

The aftermath was a reminder of Trump’s singular, political positioning. After a year and a half in power, Trump still alienates both his party and some in his own government.
