Brace yourself, Kamala has sparked the imagination of young women across America.

Her signature style of pearl necklaces, black Converse sneakers and a black overcoat are about to become the fashion statement of Democrat supporting women from Gen X all the way up to Gen Z.

It all started when Brit pop singer Charli XCX tweeted ‘Kamala is brat’ playing off the title of her recently released album titled ‘brat’.

And TikTok blew up, meme-ing the album’s green background to feature Harris in multiple videos.

Harris’ team was quick to spot the once in a lifetime opportunity to embrace the social media movement and even copied Charli’s album color to Harris’ Xitter page.

Charli herself defines a brat as a girl:

“Who feels like herself but maybe also has a breakdown. But kind of like parties through it, is very honest, very blunt. A little bit volatile. Like, does dumb things. But it’s brat. You’re brat. That’s brat.”

However Harris may feel about Charli’s endorsement, it’s proven to be a lightning rod for the fears and worries of women across America.
