THEY’RE Donald Trump’s golden girls.

And, Ivanka Trump and her half-sister Tiffany looked like they mean business today as they donned matching white tailored outfits to their father’s inauguration ceremony.

Ivanka, 35, looked radiant in an asymmetrical coat fastened with a silver broach, and skinny cigarette trousers.

Her glossy blonde hair was styled in a side parting and she carried a simple leather clutch bag.

Ivanka was joined by her husband Jared Kushner who looked dapper in a double-breasted grey jacket with blue tie.

The pair had clearly decided to leave their three children, Arabella, Joseph and Theodore, with their nanny as they attended the prestigious event alone.

Meanwhile, Tiffany – Trump’s only child with Marla Maples - was joined by her Democrat boyfriend Ross Mechanic.

Following her older sibling’s lead, the 23-year-old stood out from the crowd in a bright white, double-breasted coat.

Tiffany braved the January chill and ditched her tights, accessorising the bold look with suede green ankle boots, a pearl necklace and gloves.

Ivanka and Tiffany’s brother Donald Jr. and his wife Vanessa attended the day’s proceedings with their two oldest children, Kai and Donald Trump III.

Meanwhile, their brother Eric was accompanied by his glamorous wife Lara.

Vanessa donned an autumnal maroon coat, styled her hair in effortless waves and carried a beige clutch bag.

Lara opted for a more spring-appropriate look in a lavender coat, which featured black buttons and black piping around the sleeves.

It has been a momentous day for the Trump family.

The Obamas welcomed Donald and his wife Melania for a traditional breakfast at the White House before Trump was sworn in as the 45th US President.

Melania was left red-faced after an embarrassing encounter with Michelle Obama - she went in for a handshake, while the outgoing First Lady dived in for a kiss on the cheek.

There was unprecedented security on the streets of Washington with officers banning drones flying within 30 miles of Trump over bomb fears.

As the divisive Republican candidate prepared to take office, protests broke out between anti-Trump protestors and the police.

Shocking videos from the scene show windows being smashed and what appears to be tear gas fired at the crowds.

Meanwhile, it’s clear Melania Trump is keen to cement herself as the First Lady of fashion as she stepped out in a chic, high-necked cornflower blue dress.

Fashion watchers were left wondering who would dress the mum-of-one for the prestigious event, with many top designers reportedly refusing to offer her garments.

It was revealed that Ralph Lauren is the designer behind the elegant tailored ensemble, which Melania paired with her signature pin-thin heels and leather baby blue gloves.

Some observers claimed the cashmere, mock-turtle neck dress is reminiscent of the stylish garments worn by Jackie Kennedy.

The former First Lady wore a similar outfit back in 1961 when John F. Kennedy was sworn into office.

Melania kept her make-up simple, ditched her normal bouncy blow dry for an understated updo and wore diamond stud earrings.

Style lovers got a first glance of Melania’s outfit as she left Blair House alongside her husband on their way to a service at St. John’s Church.
