Melania continues to exude elegance and sophistication.  She certainly continues to outshine the other first ladies around the globe...she carries herself well and always is tastefully and respectably dressed.

I love the dress; she looks very "summery".  Shoes are gorgeous!

Happy Bastille Day!

I'm making a quiche to celebrate the occasion.

Yeah, and the drinking age is lower too. I know that's a complaint from Europeans when they come over here. The kids can't drink here if they are under 21 but they can drink in their home countries.

Remember when it was legal at 18?

Legal here at 11, if you are in the company of your parents. 18 officially for drinking on your own - but yeah. That's not exactly enforced in pubs. Although under 18s buying booze from shops is pretty rigorously enforced. The thinking is, if they're in the pub there's people keeping an eye on them. Buy from the shop and drink it down somealley - not as good.

Oooooohhhhh! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Beautiful dress on Melania.

First time I have seen the Frog's school marm looking good. Looks like she should stick to skirt suits and pointy toe 4" heels.

Teachers in the US go to prison for this..

Kids at 15 are so impressionable. I think she was creepy to seduce him. That makes me wonder what sort of influence she wields over him to this day. Is she behind his political ambitions? What are her political beliefs and are they now his? I find this relationship disturbing on a psychological level.

Perfectly beautiful.   ^-^

Remember ... she was also a married woman with three children @austingirl

The skirt's also longer ... I think this is a better length for her.

I didn't know that, one of her children is older than Macron, one is the same age, and one seven years younger. Being married with kids makes her even more disgusting to me.

I'm not sure what she is concealing about her neckline, but she sure likes those nehru collars all buttoned up tight. Imho, open the collar spread the lapels, shorten and taper the jacket and take the skirt hemline to mid calf, and she'd look better, even with a high neckline and a lighter colored blouse. If there is something she wants to conceal there, do it with the blouse, not the jacket. Her hips will fill out the skirt enough to conceal the thin thighs, the length would cover all but lower legs which are in fine proportion, and the overall shape would work.

Melania looks lovely as always, albeit she is squinting or appears less than happy. No one, I don't care who you are, can smile for the camera all day long.

Did she seduce him, was it mutual, did he hit on her? We don't really know. Different culture. What would be unacceptable here, is different elsewhere. Moot point at this point, they're both of age, and it is what works for them.

The décolletage is the first noticeable sign of aging in a woman...or so I have been told...maybe that is what she is hiding.

I would love to see a younger picture of her..probably one in his school yearbook..lol

She was in a position of trust and influence over him- to exploit that with someone who was the age of her children and while married is just wrong.

I too noticed the high neckline and I think it looks rather awkward. I'm not a fan of the school marm's looks either.  There's a way to look chic without looking like your trying to dress at 1/2 your age.  This outfit is better than what she usually wears.  IMHO she looks like she would have a deep voice, smoke 2 packs a day and tie one on early in the day.

Possibly sun damage.  I knew a woman whose skin in that area looked grainy, like reptile skin, from laying in the sun.  I still wish she would bring that hem down an inch or two.

You're probably right.

[Smokin Joe]

Now I agree with that part. As a TA in Grad School, I wouldn't date any of the girls in any class I taught (until after the final grades were in). No conflict of interest allowed, and that was a personal standard. Not being the one who asked, I simply replied "If you are really interested, contact me after final grades are in, and your asking me will not influence them one way or another." But, as I said, different culture, and I'm no sure what the standards are there.

[Smokin Joe]

You're probably right.

I think that's it. Then a high necked blouse and an open jacket.

Yes, the 'healthy tan' thing gets to be damage fairly easily. I agree about the hem, and taper the blouse a little to the waist. Her calves are fine, her thighs make them look too thin. Move the hemline down and everything comes into better proportion.
