Four more retailers have dumped Ivanka Trump's fashion brand just days after it was dropped by Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus following an online boycott started in response to her father's election victory.
The first daughter was seen taking a phone call on Tuesday at the White House as she held her 10-month-old son Theodore, while her husband, Jared Kushner, accompanied President Donald Trump to a listening session.
Following Nordstrom's lead, Belk, Jet and ShopStyle have washed their hands of the first daughter's fashion line following the widespread #GrabYourWallet campaign to boycott businesses the Trump family profits from.
Nordstrom denied partisanship in the decision to drop Ivanka's brand, insisting the move was made as a result of poor sales months after it was hit by the grassroots boycott started by a marketing specialist and a grandmother.

Ivanka Trump shared a sweet photo of her and her 10-month-old son at the White House on Instagram as more retailers dumped her fashion brand after it was dropped by Nordstrom
Following Nordstrom's lead, Belk, Jet and ShopStyle have washed their hands of the first daughter's fashion line following the widespread #GrabYourWallet campaign
The Grab Your Wallet campaign was launched on October 11 by Shannon Coulter and Sue Atencio after they 'simultaneously realized they could no longer in good conscience shop at retailers that do business with the Trump family'.
The campaign compiled a list of businesses that sell Trump family goods. The extensive list also includes companies that advertise on Celebrity Apprentice or executives that have raised money for the president.
The campaign name was direct reference to the president's infamous 'grab them by the p***y' remark from a 2005 leaked audio tape that led to numerous allegations of sexual assault.
In November, Nordstrom responded to a shopper's letter calling for the company to stop selling the brand, tweeting: 'We hope that offering a vendor's products isn't misunderstood as us taking a political position; we're not.'
ShopStyle no longer showed any of Ivanka's items for sale as of Tuesday.
A representative from Belk also said their removal of the merchandise was based on 'the performance of the brands we carry'
Jet has also stopped selling Ivanka's fashion line and her father's Success fragrance (pictured). However, the company is still selling pro-President Trump merchandise
Nordstrom said the cut was based on the 'brand's performance' and that they decided 'not to buy it for this season'
By Thursday evening, Nordstrom had completely taken off the first daughter's merchandise from their website (above)
A representative from Belk told the site that their removal of the merchandise was based on 'the performance of the brands we carry'.
Jet has also stopped selling Ivanka's fashion line and her father's Success fragrance. However, the company is still selling pro-President Trump merchandise.
On Tuesday, Ivanka shared a sweet photo of her and her son Theodore on Instagram as she held him while on the phone at the White House.

'Taking a call in the White House with my personal assistant Theodore,' she wrote in the caption of the photo.
An adorable Theodore appeared to be flashing a wide smile as his mother handled business.
The photo was captured just a day after it was revealed that Nordstrom presidents, Peter, Erik and Black Nordstrom, sent an email criticizing President Trump's ban on immigrants from seven Muslim-majority nations entering the US.
The Seattle-based retailer were among the first to announce that they would no longer carry Ivanka's line of clothing, handbags, shoes and accessories.
That decision was due to poor sales of Ivanka's merchandise they said at the time.
Meanwhile, Ivanka's husband, Jared Kushner, was spotted hurrying from the family's home Tuesday morning to attend a listening session at the White House

Meanwhile, Ivanka's husband, Jared Kushner, was spotted hurrying from the family's home Tuesday morning to attend a listening session at the White House alongside his father-in-law and president, Trump.
Kushner, who is the senior White House adviser, accompanied the president to the session in which Trump met with county sheriffs in the Roosevelt Room of the White House.
The Trump administration returned to court on Tuesday to argue it has broad authority over national security and to demand reinstatement of a travel ban on seven Muslim-majority countries that stranded refugees.
Justice Department attorneys made the case for Trump's contested travel ban to be reinstated, in a high-stakes hearing before a federal court of appeal in California.
The Trump administration returned to court Tuesday to demand reinstatement of its travel ban on 7 Muslim-majority countries that stranded refugees
The latest twist in the legal showdown comes four days after a federal judge suspended Trump's decree, opening US borders back up to refugees and travelers from the seven mostly-Muslim nations it targeted.
Three judges from the appellate court in San Francisco began hearing an hour of oral arguments to determine whether to lift the injunction, or uphold it.
A court spokesman said a ruling would likely come later this week.
Trump's January 27 executive order barred entry to all refugees for 120 days, and to travelers from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen for 90 days, triggering chaos at US airports and worldwide condemnation.
The White House defends the decree as essential for national security, giving the new administration time to beef up vetting procedures to keep potential terrorists out of the country.
