Vice President Kamala Harris recently made headlines for her visit to the U.S.-Mexico border in Douglas, Arizona — but not exactly for the reasons you might think. While her brief 20-minute stop sparked some criticism for its brevity, it was her choice of jewelry that really got the internet buzzing. Harris was seen rocking a $62,000 Tiffany & Co. gold necklace during her visit, a luxury piece from the company’s “Hardware” collection, which, according to Tiffany, has a “look that’s sure to turn heads.” Well, mission accomplished, because people are definitely talking.

At the rally, Harris slammed Trump’s immigration policies, saying, “He made the challenges at the border worse, and he is still fanning the flames of fear and division.” She continued to criticize his legacy, while promising that as president (yep,…
