Melania Trump rocked a red coat as she boarded a plane Monday afternoon in West Palm Beach, Florida that was bound for Washington, D.C., ahead of Christmas with President Donald Trump.
The first lady looked fantastic as ever in the full-length coat when she was spotted boarding a C37A government plane — an adapted Gulfstream V— for the trip back to the White House, per the Daily Mail.

The news comes following reports over the weekend that FLOTUS would be returning from Mar-a-Lago to spend the holiday with Trump after the president shared that he had cancelled his plans to spend Christmas in Florida due to the government shutdown.
“I am all alone (poor me) in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come back and make a deal on desperately needed Border Security,” President Trump tweeted Monday ahead of her return. “At some point the Democrats not wanting to make a deal will cost our Country more money than the Border Wall we are all talking about. Crazy!”
