Melania Trump invited Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos to the Blue Room of the White House, where the ladies spoke to middle school students about their daily agendas. The FLOTUS dressed casually [1], opting for a bright, tomato-red Polo Ralph Lauren sweater [2] ($245) that she coordinated with colorful pumps [3]. The focal point of her outfit was an Agnona denim skirt, which came in a dark wash and was complete with a trendy tasseled zipper down the center, contrast stitching, and symmetrical pockets.
Melania's design came to a modest length, but while some might expect her in a wool pencil skirt or sleek work trousers, the first lady aimed to surprise, shopping the side of her wardrobe that might be more familiar to young children — something a school teacher might wear, perhaps. Ahead, catch another glimpse of Melania's look, then shop for similar midi pieces that fit the bill.
