Ivanka was filmed in the backseat of a car with her seat belt sapped across her chest as she animatedly spoke about the day ahead of her.

The senior adviser was wearing a navy blue and yellow floral-print silk-jacquard shirtdress featuring pearl buttons, which she paired with navy blue ankle-strap stilettos.

Her long blonde hair was parted in the middle and straightened for her day of meetings, and she was sporting a smokey brown eye and glossy lips.

Ivanka went on to share a video of herself walking through the Lima Stock Exchange with CEO Francis Stenning, as well as a photo of herself sitting down during a roundtable discussion.

'Meeting with women business leaders based in Lima!' she captioned the image.

The day before, Ivanka posted a video of herself stepping off a plane in a cream sweater and tan, wide-leg pants upon her arrival in Peru.

'I'm extremely excited for my visit and look forward to highlighting the important work that the U.S. government and this administration are doing to empower women economically in the region and elsewhere around the globe,' she told reporters on Wednesday.

The president's daughter is representing the administration at a CEO summit that is taking place in Lima. Her husband Jared Kushner, and Vice President Mike Pence will be joining her on the trip. However, they were both still in Washington, D.C. on Thursday morning.

Jared, a 37-year-old senior adviser, joined governors and lawmakers in a meeting with President Donald Trump in the Cabinet Room of the White House. He and the vice president were later seen arriving in the Rose Garden for the president's speech on tax cuts. 

Trump was originally scheduled to be in Lima for the U.S.-founded Summit of the Americas this weekend before heading to Colombia. He nixed his visit to South America at the last minute and ordered Pence to Peru instead, allegedly so he could focus on the situation in Syria.

His daughter was always among the senior administration officials traveling to Peru, and she said on a call Wednesday that she would make an appearance at a companion summit for CEOs at the invitation of the Inter-American Development Bank.

She traveled with the acting secretary of state but had her own program of events.

Ivanka hitched a ride with the Trump administration official instead of traveling commercially, like she did on her last foreign trip, a solo visit to India for a State Department-run tech conference.

The first daughter as spearheaded women's outreach and issues in her father's administration, where she's been credited with pushing through an increase in the child tax credit and a sex trafficking bill her father signed on Wednesday.

Her portfolio has helped her to secure plum spots on her father's oversees trips to the Middle East, Italy, Germany and Japan.

She said on a call that she'd promote women's economic empowerment through public-private partnership on a panel in Lima this week with Overseas Private Investment Corporation President and CEO Ray Washburne.

'Women’s economic empowerment has been a core mission of mine and an ongoing priority for the administration. This work is critical,' she said. 'When women are empowered economically, it contributes to increased economic growth, peace, and global stability.'

Ivanka said she was channeling her energy into Latin America because the rate of business formations by women is especially low there.

'For those women who do start businesses, they face unique barriers to accessing capital, including a significant credit gap,' she explained. 

The president's daughter did not provide further details on the initiative she'd be unveiling or the price tag that's associated with it, other than to say it would be a joint collaboration between the U.S. and Peru in both the public and private sectors.

During her visit, Ivanka will also be making a stops at EcoInca, a Peruvian business that makes organic products. EcoInca is owned and operated by women.

The morning before her flight to Peru, Ivanka stepped out of her Washington, D.C. home in a spring-inspired look.   

She flashed a bright smile and waved to the cameras while making her way to the SUV parked outside as she headed to work at 8:25 a.m.

Ivanka donned a light blue blouse featuring a sparkling collar, which she tucked into a $1,100 silk floral pencil skirt from Calvin Klein.

The mother-of-three wore her long blonde hair loose around her shoulders and sported natural-looking make-up. She topped off the look with a pair of navy blue suede pumps.

Ivanka forewent jewelry — save for a pair of diamond studs in her ears — but she was seen sporting a red string tied around her left wrist.

Although she hasn't spoken about the purpose of the string, which she has been wearing since last summer, it does bear a resemblance to the type of red string that Kabbalah practitioners wear to ward off the 'evil eye.' 

After arriving at the White House, Ivanka attended a bill signing in the Oval Office, where she was once again pictured with a beaming smile on her face.
