Kamala Harris wears Rs 51 lakh Tiffany's link necklace to border, faces flak on the internet
Democratic presidential contender Kamala Harris was seen at the Arizona-Mexico border discussing immigration issues while wearing what appeared to be a $62,000 Tiffany necklace, which sparked criticism. This is not the first time.
The Democratic presidential contender was photographed Friday at the southern border in Arizona, attempting to appear tough on one of her biggest electoral weaknesses as she strolled near a razor-wire-protected fence in the town of Douglas, conversing with a US Border Patrol agent. Harris, 59, was dressed in dark sunglasses, a brown jacket over a black top, and dark slacks, and critics claimed he was wearing a $62,000 (Rs 51 lakh) Tiffany's necklace.
How did people on the internet react?
The gold chain-link item is similar to Tiffany & Co.'s Bold Graduated Link Necklace in yellow gold, which retails for a stunning amount. It is unclear whether Harris' necklace is the Tiffany item, and neither Tiffany nor the Harris campaign responded to requests for comment.
Some people pointed out about Harris being middle class others just simply said "Who does that?". Here's what people said.
¡®Middle class¡¯ Harris went to the border for a hurried photo-op that lasted 20 minutes, and made sure to wear her $62,000 Tiffany necklace.

Where did Kamala Harris go?
Harris visited the town of approximately 17,000 people and spoke about measures to address "our broken immigration system" to gain momentum on one of her most vulnerable electoral fronts as she competes for the presidency with Republican contender Donald Trump.
It was her first trip to the troubled southern border since a 2021 visit to El Paso, Texas, four months after President Biden appointed her border czar.
Harris' jewellery choices have already been called into question. Following her debate with Trump on September 10, conspiracy-minded social media users claimed her gold and pearl earrings included a secret Bluetooth device. The pieces seemed to be gold versions of Tiffany's Double Pearl pearl-hinged earrings.
Kamala¡¯s choice of earrings for the debate was very interesting. While the below is almost impossible to confirm as factual, it certainly appears suspect. pic.twitter.com/a5b4Yzj2Fz
