Melania Trump Nowhere In Sight on Trip to Vietnam

While the cat’s away… Hope Hicks has been accused of stealing the spotlight from Melania Trump while the president visited Asia. Well, as Melania headed home, Hope busted out another eye-catching outfit in Vietnam!

Winter might be settling in throughout the northern hemisphere, but Hope Hicks, 29, was a springtime vision when she arrived at the Vietnamese presidential palace on Nov. 12,. The White House communications director wore a flirty, fun dress with puffy sleeves and a very elegant floral print. To complement this lovely look, Hope had her hair pulled back into a bun, appearing as if she was almost wearing a crown. With a pair of braids and a set of high-heel pumps that could have come out of Melania Trump’s shoe closet, Hope once again was a fierce fashionista.

Speaking of the First Lady, Melania, 47, didn’t make the trip to Vietnam. Her third and final appearance on President Donald Trump’s Asia tour was in Beijing, China, according to CNN. That may be good news for fans of Hope’s fashion. The longtime Trump aide became a huge sensation with her choice of outfits during this Asia trip – and sometimes, it seemed as if she was stealing Melania’s thunder. Uh-oh.

Hope first caught everyone’s attention with her decision to rock a stylish tuxedo at a state dinner in Tokyo. Hope’s choice of an androgynous outfit for the Nov. 6 event was a bold choice, one that seemingly upstaged the First Lady’s elegant floor-length gown. When Melania donned a black outfit for her time in South Korea, Hope was back at it again. Trump’s PR specialist got people buzzing with her puffy turtleneck and cascading hair.

The South Korea stunt seemed to be the straw that broke the camel’s back. Hope seemed to dress down while in China. Melania was absolutely stunning in her floral print gown (and excellent fuzzy sleeves. Work it, Melania!) Meanwhile, Hope looked like she was going to pick up the kids from soccer practice. The downgrading fashion choices continued on the tarmac, as Hope wore a baggy top with her hair in a messy up-do. With Melania not completing the rest of Trump’s 12-day trip, does this mean Hope is free to wear whatever she wants? How will things work out back at the White House?

Liberals judging women by their appearance, and what they wear.
The article goes on and on about braids, pumps, turtleneck, and fuzzy sleeves. One is led to think that the man who wrote this blather says “fabulous” a lot.

VietNam is the APEC summit. Any world leaders bring their spouses? Typical US news organization. They can tell you what the women are wearing or what Trump just tweeted, but substance is lost on them.

“Rectal-gas windbag” is the the only descriptor I can think of for this screed’s author!

the MSM has no clue how to stop flotus popularity numbers from trending up, that is what scares them! Hope comes out smelling like a rose and known around the world

“Not really the look for Vietnam, IMHO.”

My opinion also. Wearing a dress that is significantly above the knee and a bit low cut is not at all what one would consider appropriate attire for a high level government official, especially one accompanying our President.

Confident women like our FIRST LADY aren’t petty or jealous of others. The writer is trying to make something out of nothing.

Hope Hicks would do better to dress a bit more professionally, with discretion and humility as an aide, and not seek excessive visibility.
