Transcript

I just got officially divorced. No, obviously, I wanna spend the rest of the day celebrating. So let's go do all of my favorite things. How about some fresh ice for a fresh stat? I love me some Rank Cleef. These are absolutely gorgeous earrings. I think this bracelet could be the perfect addition to my stack. Champagne because we're celebrating. The goods have been secured. I went with the bangle. It is so pretty. Next stop, Tier. I'm looking at the love ring. I shockingly don't own one of these, but it is so pretty. K. I'm looking at the Tier watch. Look how good this looks with my current stack. It looks like complete with this watch. I know this is not something I would normally get, but this is so cool. Look at this ring. Okay, guys. I'm gonna go with the ring. Champagne round two.
