When it comes to shoes, it’s clear that Melania Trump has her favorites.

In 2018, the first lady has returned to the same styles over and over again, favoring designer stilettos from Christian Louboutin and Manolo Blahnik.

Trump tends to match her footwear to her looks, choosing different shades of Manolo Blahnik’s BBs and Christian Louboutin’s So Kate pumps to match her looks.

While visiting a children’s hospital ahead of the holidays, the former model added a touch of Christmas spirit to her ensemble, choosing a pair of candy cane-striped Manolo Blahnik pumps that perfectly matched an oversized coat.

On a trip to Belgium with President Donald Trump this July, the 48-year-old wore a long-sleeved red shirt with a tan skirt that belted at the middle, completing her outfit with printed So Kate pumps that added a little personality to her look.

In the cooler months, the stylish first lady often incorporates boots into her outfits. At the National Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony this November, she stepped out in taupe boots, which she paired with a white Max Mara coat. Trump wore her hair in a stylish updo and battled the Washington, D.C. chill with a pair of gloves.

Although Trump loves her heels, she has been known to ditch them for more casual footwear on occasion. For instance, she went with Converse sneakers while boarding a plane in Ghana this October.
