No offense to the 46 male presidents the United States has had in its nearly 250-year history, but one of the most exciting things about the possibility of a woman in the White House (for a fashion-lover, at least) is that we’ll finally get a little more than boring blue suits at those press conferences.
But seriously, while there are so many things to admire about Vice President Kamala Harris, we had to take a moment to give a nod to her style. Over the years, she’s never been afraid to play with color and texture, representing her office in the best way.
As we await her speech accepting the Democratic Presidential nomination, check out some of our favorite Kamala Harris looks over the years.
