Kamala Harris inspires great-nieces to steal her chic childhood style
Vice President Kamala Harris has amazing style, we know that, but it seems sartorial prowess runs deep within her family, with her great-nieces making a statement of their own at the 2021 Presidential Inauguration on Wednesday.

Four-year-old Amara and two-year-old Leela, the daughters of the Vice President's niece Meena Harris, were spotted at Wednesday's event in the chicest matching faux fur leopard-print coats. A statement on their own, the coats drew plenty of attention from onlookers, but there's more to the adorable sisters' twinning moment.
Taking to Instagram, Meena shared a photo of her daughters in their cosy custom coats, along with a snap of a young Kamala with her family wearing a similar coat.
The caption read: "Special coats to look just like Auntie's."
In the vintage family photo, Kamala is joined by her younger sister, Maya Harris, who is Meena's mother.

The hooded coats, now called "Kamala", were designed and handmade for the sisters by I Love Plum — a female-founded childrenswear brand based in New York City.
"When I Love Plum heard back from Meena and that she loved the coats they had sketched, their designer spent the past weekend sewing them from hand," said the brand in a statement.
If you're looking to buy a coat with a special meaning for your tiny one, the "Kamala" will be available to order soon from iloveplum.com.
