Ivanka Trump attended an international conference in Qatar, alongside Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin on Sunday.
The First Daughter stood out in a black and pink $2,600 Alexander McQueen blazer, which she paired with slightly flared black trousers and heels.
Her blonde bob was dried poker-straight and parted down the center, a style she has favored since cutting her hair in September.
Ivanka, the senior White House adviser, was at the Doha Forum in the Qatari capital to ‘participate in the forum´s programming and meet with government and business leaders regarding key economic objectives’, a US Treasury statement said.

Ivanka and Mnuchin arrived in the Middle Eastern country on Saturday. Ivanka donned a red and beige trench coat, with knee high boots, as she touched down and met with Qatar’s welcoming committee, who were all wearing traditional Qatari gutras and thobes.
It’s been a busy week for Ivanka who stepped out on Thursday dressed to the nines to attend a White House summit on childcare and paid leave.
‘We have come together today because we have a historic chance to pass paid family leave and childcare reform so that every American family has the freedom to embrace the dignity of work and the joy of raising a family,’ she said during her opening remarks at the White House.
‘Our vision is to give each parent the resources and support they need to make the best choice for their families.’
Since Trump was elected, Ivanka has been working with members of Congress and private sector leaders to gain bipartisan support for paid family leave.

Family affair: Ivanka and Jared joined the president and first lady Melania Trump at a Hanukkah reception at the White House on Wednesday
‘At the heart of our reforms is democratizing choice and control and giving it back to parents — where it belongs,’ she said.
On Wednesday evening, Ivanka and Jared showed their support for her father when he signed an executive order targeting anti-Semitism on college campuses.
The first daughter converted to Judaism to marry Jared in 2009, and they are raising their three children as Orthodox Jews. She and her husband proudly stood behind the president as he addressed the audience and signed the order.
Ivanka stood out in an elegant peacock green dress that featured a square neckline and crystals embellishments at the shoulders.
While she opted for an outfit change after leaving her home in a black suit earlier in the day, Jared had on the same navy blue suit and light blue tie he had on when he walked out the door of that morning.
