First Lady Melania Trump rocked gold embroidered pumps for a Saturday night date with President Trump at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., ignoring the fallout from late-night host Jimmy Kimmel’s personal attacks.
Mrs. Trump stepped out in an A-line black coat, a silhouette she has repeated during cold weather days, pairing the simplistic ensemble with a baroque, Versace-esque pair of black pumps that featured gold embroidery and a gold heel.

The first lady, nor President Donald Trump, have spoken publicly since Kimmel mocked Mrs. Trump’s accent during his monologue last week.
Kimmel released a statement on Sunday apologizing for using offensive gay slurs to attack Fox News host Sean Hannity and President Trump. Kimmel’s statement, however, failed to offer a sincere apology to Mrs. Trump.
The ABC host is still under heavy fire as a petition calling for a boycott of his show has been signed by more 100,000 people.
