Ella Emhoff looked ready to hit the treadmill rather than the catwalk when she shared a snapshot of herself sporting fitness apparel this week.

The stepdaughter of Vice President of the USA Kamala Harris posed in her edgy apartment wearing a pair of tiny shorts, an ab-baring top and matching socks, pulled up high over her legs.

Rather than stick to the black color-theme, Ella opted for a pair of fluorescent, yellow sneakers, and gave a shout out to the brands in the caption: "@ganni x @newbalance TYSM," she wrote.

Ella dazzled at the Met Gala

"Growing up, I never saw myself as someone stylish, at all," she told Elle. "Obviously, I loved fashion and cared a lot about it. But I was really into doing my own thing and being really comfortable in my own body, you know?" 

She added: "I never saw myself as a ‘fashion person.’ And I don’t know if my classmates did either!”

Ella has an edgy look

As for her sense of style, she says it's all about feeling good. "If I had to describe my style right now, it’s not even a way of dressing," Ella added. "It’s just wearing clothes that you feel good in, not really being influenced by what other people want you to be wearing.

"And also, not getting boxed in by what you used to wear, or what people think you would be wearing. Because it’s not the actual clothes you’re wearing. It’s the confidence you have, and the ability to live your life, in those clothes.”
