3 Cocktails In
Addicting conversations between friends who have been there, done that and still want more.
We are 3 friends who got this crazy idea to start a podcast based on our friendships, family lives, professional lives and experiences! This idea kept coming up in our conversations, especially after a cocktail or two or maybe three, and we finally decided to ACT on it!
We don't claim to be experts on too many things, but friendship? Well, we've got that down. We're making our way through major life changes, searching for work that excites us, busting myths associated with 'old' people, and keeping a sense of humor about it all.

P.S. Isn't our intro music great?! Yah, we think so too. Thank you, Ivy States for "I Got That Wow".
I got that. Wow, who wants some heads right now? We got that. Turn it up loud. I know you're wondering how I got that, why here I go. Here I go, coming. I can never stop. I'm a tour the force running. Give me to the top, I don't need an invitation, oh there we go, hello everyone hello, how are you guys?
Speaker 2:good, how are you?
Speaker 4:good, got my pink on getting a little holiday. You know, valentine's love going where my sparkly necklace.
Speaker 2:Recognize that yeah, I have one on two. That's interesting, can't see the bottom. It is like a. Why have that one, do you?
Speaker 4:yeah, I do, ladies love it, yes. Well, this is so fitting because tonight, on three cocktails, in addicting conversations between friends who have been there, done that and still want more, we are going to talk to kitty about this leap of faith she took a couple years ago and started what was a side hustle that is kind of trying to bump into center stage, I think it may be trying to bump into center stage.
Speaker 4:Yes, yes, so different than the conversation we had with Sarah a few episodes back. Who Sarah left? Sarah left corporate America and jumped into private entrepreneurship with a yoga studio that she'd always wanted to have. So, kitty, you haven't quite done that. No, you wanted I need to know. Well, I was kind of there, we were all kind of there, but you never really talked to us about you know how this happened?
Speaker 3:mm-hmm that's right. And you know what? I remember we were at a twins game when I told you that I was doing this. Okay, remember, maybe you don't remember that, but so I launched this in October of 21 and so we were at a twins game and it was probably sometime in September. Okay, but I'll back up and the concept, the business. I'll talk a little bit more about that a little bit, but the business was brought to my attention. I want to say it was around. Well, when did you have your garage sale?
Speaker 4:the one you forced me into having. Yes, correct that.
Speaker 3:I did not enjoy having but was necessary because you were getting ready to sell your house.
Speaker 4:So yeah was that I know because we I move, I moved. It was, I think it was, may of 21 okay, okay.
Speaker 3:So this actually goes back to being there at that garage sale and my sister called me and I remember because I walked around the side of your house and I was standing out in your backyard and I'm talking to my sister. She said have you heard of this paparazzi jewelry? And I hadn't. I said no. She says I'm gonna send you a video. You have to watch this. It's five dollar jewelry and immediately I have this. What?
Speaker 1:my reaction was I what?
Speaker 3:how can that be even a thing? So she said, trust me, I'm gonna send you this video. It's on Facebook, check it out. So then got off the phone and, I don't know, it was probably a week or two before I finally watched it. And so then, within the next few months, I started shopping it and then I decided I want to do this and then I launched it in October of 21. So I gotta tell you, this came from nowhere on this topic of so I think just the concept of side hustles, the concept itself is fascinating. Side hustles have always been around. Oh yeah, you know, great people have always, always, at various times in their life. It's not uncommon for people to want an extra stream of income, but I think it wasn't really until recently that this term side hustle has become right, more prevalent and and popular yeah and then, I think, with you know, in the 20th and 21st century we really saw the rise of what's called the gig economy.
Speaker 3:You started hearing that phrase. People have in these side gigs. Now they're side hustles. We've had so much change in technology, we've had so much change in just the nature of work itself. So all of these things have just increased the visibility and the prevalence of side hustles. But, like I said, it came from nowhere. I never had, I didn't have this thing in me. That said, you know, I really should start something on the side. I started this side hustle simply because I fell in love with this concept that had been put in front of me.
Speaker 4:No, Well, you know, I think that what I see from on the whole subject of side hustle is a lot of women Maybe that's just because of the social media that I'm on, you know a lot of women, and a lot of it is stuff that they're passionate about, that they love. Yes, it fulfills part of their life that doesn't get fulfilled with a corporate job or taking care of the kids at home or all these various things that we have to do to make things work, and I think side hustles are a great way of justifying a love. Maybe it starts that way. You know, people tend to do side hustles of stuff they love.
Speaker 3:Yes, right, and it's. We hear people say a lot. You know, whenever you see the little inspirational things pop up on whatever social media platform, you're on, the ones that say do more of what you love and do less of what you don't love. That's the world that we're living in right now. People are finding ways to do more of what they love, and I think that's why I gave myself permission to do this. Sure, I have a good job. There wasn't. You know, I wasn't looking for additional income. That wasn't my motivation at all.
Speaker 3:I saw this and I looked at it and I thought, okay, there's something. Okay, so well, let me explain what it is, because this is part of what made me fall in love with it. So the business, the brand is paparazzi, it is fashion jewelry, it's been around for 12 years and it is $5 jewelry. So everything that you see that I'm wearing, each piece that I am wearing, is $5. And so the whole concept, the business I'm an independent consultant and so I named my business Good Glam, and what I talk about with my customers and what I share is that you can look like a million bucks, you can put yourself together with great fashion jewelry without breaking the bank. You don't have to spend hundreds of dollars buying fashion jewelry, and so I was introduced to it via Facebook.
Speaker 3:So my sister sends me this video, I pop it up. Here's now my friend Shannon. I didn't know this woman before, but now she's become a very good friend. So here she is in the middle of Nebraska on Facebook live and she's showing jewelry and she's holding it up to the camera and she's talking about it and she's got people watching and commenting and they're buying. Now we've all seen that, of course, but it was fairly new. It was fairly new to me.
Speaker 3:One I didn't know anybody doing it. I mean, I would come across the videos on Facebook, but I hadn't really bought anything through that method and I became obsessed. I really became obsessed. I would work my schedule around when is Shannon going to be live? When is she live? A Saturday morning nine o'clock? I'm going to make sure you know, and then I would watch and I'd buy a couple of pieces. So I started buying it to make sure the quality was good and I got it. I'm like, oh my God, this is only $5 and this is great jewelry. So what did I fall in love with? I fell in love with the interaction through Facebook, so that social selling approach.
Speaker 3:I fell in love with the product and as I sat there and looked at it, I kept hearing this voice in my head saying you could do that, you Kitty, you could totally do that. And after several weeks of that little narrative going through my brain, I thought all right, I think I'm going to do this. It was not. It was not anything more than just that and just this confidence that came from me that just said okay, I think I would be good at that. I want to give this a try.
Speaker 2:Yeah. So with that in mind, then, how did you really start? You know what are the steps to start it and how you've built it over the past two years.
Speaker 3:I reached out to Shannon, talked to her about it and you know she also had a full time job, so she was doing it as a side and I asked tons of questions, just every question that I could imagine. And then to jump in, you know, like a lot of these companies and we'll talk a little bit about that as well say these companies, there's a startup kit that you buy. So I bought my startup kit and then I put together a couple of little videos to put out on Facebook to let people know what I was going to be doing. I set a date for the launch, so I invited people to my Facebook event and have not looked back ever since.
Speaker 3:And the one thing that I know has helped me to build this business is that I have remained consistent with it. I have never stopped. I have never stopped. I am live three times a week and when I have a bad day, when I have a bad week and I don't feel like going live, I still go live. And so you know it was just really being active and I developed a business page. So I've got that persona now on Facebook and then just interacting with people.
Speaker 4:Yeah, you do a really nice job and you've kind of brought the family into it. But I think that that's what makes it enjoyable for people, because you, some of your lives, are maybe right around an hour, but people stay, and it's they stay because they're enjoying the experience. They, you know, they feel like your friends, yes, which there's a lot of people, I mean, we've all been on Facebook forever and, like you said, we've seen a lot of these different things and some of them are so freaking disorganized and they people don't know what they're doing on camera and half the time, you know, you've done a really, really nice job of making it an enjoyable experience. And I pop in because, you know, I've got this weird schedule, so I pop in and catch it, sometimes on Saturday as well. I'm getting ready to go to work and drop a little comment. Hi, nice to meet you. Whatever, kitty, would that look good with this outfit that you know I have, which is always fun.
Speaker 2:Yes, yeah, I've seen behind the scenes and I'm always so impressed now how there's a lot going on that you can't see, like, for instance, kitty's scanning the tags, where you and you can't see that in the camera, and she's picking up other things and she's putting stuff on her. You know form and at the same time she's, you know, talking with the people on, not just talking, but you know, asking questions. She's reading all the comments and talking about what they're saying. She asks questions and they might answer. They ask her questions and she'll answer. So there's a lot. There's a lot more going on than I think Most people realize just from that show.
Speaker 3:It's a lot.
Speaker 2:It's a hustle, that's for sure.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and I you know what I think back to the first months of it where I didn't have very many people tuning in and you do feel like you're just sitting there talking to yourself, because I do it into my phone that I have on a tripod in front of me. So I'm staring at myself and again in those early days when maybe only five people would pop on, I'd have to sit there and kind of have a conversation with myself. So it felt really good to get to the point where that number went from five to ten to fifteen. I'm right now hovering anywhere between forty and we get to mid fifties. So you know I've got a long way to go. There are a lot of consultants out there that have hundreds of people on when they go and do their lives. So you know I have my goals, I know where I'm planning to go and it will continue to take a while, but it's been. I feel so good about what I've been able to achieve with this.
Speaker 4:You should so talk about, if you could, the process of going from five to ten to twenty, five to fifty. Clearly at some point, as you, stacy, just alluded to everything that happens behind the camera. I know we got the Bling boss we got. I don't think Bling baby went over. Well, I don't know that that's exactly the right term for the twenty one year old son who helps out.
Speaker 3:That's what I continue to call him so and he's accepting of it. Yes, bling boss is my husband, bill, so he is, he's on every show with me and when I say on, he's upstairs. So he's monitoring comments so that I can just interact with people. So as I'm showing things, you know, I give pieces, numbers and then people claim. So if I've got twenty five of this bracelet, I'm giving it a number and then people will comment for that bracelet. So Bill is getting all of that down that. I didn't do that in the beginning. I was able to manage that myself, but now we've gotten to a point where G it would be really nice, once I'm done with the show, that. So he texts me all of the claims and then I can go right into fulfillment. So that has just. That's something that just evolved out of necessity and I expect that as it takes its next growth, you know, as we move to the next level, we will need to put different processes in place as well to handle that.
Speaker 4:So so a long time ago, before social media was a thing I sold, tastefully simple, which is a side hustle for a lot of women, I had to go into people's homes and I had to order all the product ahead of time and sat with tons and tons of inventory and go to a show where they tell me there's going to be 14 people there and four show up. I cannot tell you how much better this seems. But part of that push as I'm sure that you've been, you know thinking about is not only are you a built-in revenue stream by selling, you've got that other part where some companies are very, very aggressive with the idea of team building as a secondary revenue stream, and I have only heard you talk about it just a little bit.
Speaker 4:So I think sometimes these side hustles, companies like this get a bad rap. Yeah, I mean there's, there's a. You'd be real if you really thought about it. You'd be really hard pressed to find any sort of business that does not have some sort of additional revenue stream that's not related to their sales. Let's put it that way. Yeah, so what are your feelings on that? And you know what's your goal there, what I mean, how are you dealing with that?
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's. I'm glad that we can talk about this here because it is something that I always, at any time. I mentioned to somebody that I'm a paparazzi consultant not any time, but maybe one, you know, one out of five times someone will say, oh, is that like one of those pyramid schemes? And I almost my head almost explodes every time.
Speaker 4:I get that from someone and good for not like throat punching. Yeah, yes.
Speaker 3:It's just rude. It's just, it's just rude to say that to someone. No, it's not. It's no, it's not a pyramid scheme. Is it a market multi level marketing company? Yes, and it's 100% legal, by the way. Right, so multi level marketing companies have gotten a bad rap because there have been some in history that weren't, and you know what. Those don't exist anymore. So, unfortunately, we still have to battle the bad rap that comes from that.
Speaker 3:But, you know, I, like I said, it will come up maybe once in every five conversations that somebody will mention it. But then people move on and for me, especially in the first year, I didn't have any interest in building a team Because I thought, you know what? I need to first build my own business before I can even pretend to be able to lead someone else in doing this. It's true that there's, you know, they the business structure. Yeah, they want you to be bringing other people in building your team as soon as possible, and some do and some don't. Like I didn't, I am building a team now. I have 10, I have 10 people on my team now. They're not all active sellers, they just wanted to be on the team and they want to buy the product at wholesale price.
Speaker 3:Great, that's fine. There's room. There's room for all sorts of different people in, you know, in this structure. So I would love, you know, here's the thing If I didn't have a full-time job, I would be more active building a team and I would scale this thing much faster. But the reality is I do have a full-time job. That I that I love very much. And this going back to one of you guys' questions at the beginning. This does fulfill something for me that my full-time job doesn't.
Speaker 4:Yeah, sure I mean, and that's the other thing Do you, would it be as enjoyable to you if you are leading this massive team and you're spending a good share of your time now administratively, versus the creative interaction portion that you, it seems that you really thrive on that. You really like the?
Speaker 3:yeah, you've asked me that before, so I've contemplated it, because we've had lots of conversation about what does retirement look like. You know, the three of us have talked about that. It's going to look different for everybody, and I think one of the things that this fulfills for me is that I am my own boss. I've always worked for someone else in my entire career. This is the only time that I have been my own boss in this business, in having this business, so it fulfills that. It also fulfills, you know, over my entire corporate career, I have always had to present, I've always been in a business development role, so I've become very comfortable doing things like this. It's also one of the reasons why I wanted to do the podcast with you guys, because what we're doing right now I truly, if I could have my dream job, it'd be this, right here. Mel Robbins, I'm coming for you. So I mean, I love this, I love this interaction, I love just being able to have conversations, thought provoking things. And I do want to circle back to one of the things that was probably the most unexpected benefit from doing this side hustle, and that is what I have the relationships that have been nurtured with these customers who I affectionately call the glam dolls and I do have some guys who shop with me too, and they're the glam dudes.
Speaker 3:But the messages that I get from people are I had no idea what $5 jewelry would mean to someone. I don't have that personal fulfillment. Stacey, you talked about the work that you guys do at Poet. You are actually. You are doing something that's great for our planet yeah, changing the world, supposedly and I love my job at Heroic. We do amazing work for our clients. But there's this personal fulfillment that I get from Good Glam.
Speaker 3:When I get a message from someone who says you know what? I just lost 100 pounds and you have no idea how good I feel when I put this jewelry on and I walk outside my house. That's awesome. Yeah, I am. Here was another message I got from a woman. She was going to conquer her fear of heights and she had on on her calendar she was going to take a helicopter flight and she said I am going to put my jewelry on and that is going to bring me comfort when I go on this helicopter ride. Wow, and I get these messages from people all the time. I just lost my husband this year. I can't tell you how much I enjoy 7.30 PM on Tuesday and Thursday night, because I get to spend it with you yeah.
Speaker 4:Community. It comes back to the idea of community yes, without having to leave your home, yeah. And what's really cool is you've got people that buy all over the US, yes, and they become friends because I see them talking to each other about oh, I think you already bought that or that would look really good with that necklace you got last week and I'm like these people are just hanging out together.
Speaker 3:Yes, yeah, it's social time and there are some people who come and they don't buy anything, and that's okay, or they might buy one thing a month, that's fine. They're still welcome to be there and they're welcome in the conversation and they know it.
Speaker 4:Yeah Well, you know and I don't know that we really we're going to discuss this part of it but you teach people. So, even if they don't buy your jewelry and of course you know you'd like them to they're learning how to style themselves and how to take what you see in a photo or on your camera that somebody else is wearing. How do you put it together? The whole idea of a neck mess, the whole idea of all the different bracelets, the arm party.
Speaker 4:Yeah, An arm party. So it's not just about matter of fact. I'd almost go. I'd just go as far to say, as the buying is secondary to what people get out of this.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 4:Yes, I love that. Yeah, and can you feel free to use that. Do you want me to write that down as a testimony?
Speaker 2:Thanks, for that we really should. Yes, and you know a lot of it is. You know that you're so good at it, I mean, and you've improved over time too, and but they are. I see the comments all the time where they say you know how great you look and you know talking to you. You know what I mean. Yeah, so it's definitely you Over time, like at the beginning, the first few things or the first few shows. You know the things I bought don't go with anything. Well, now if you watch Kitty, she'll show you know like three necklaces and two bracelets and earrings that all go together and that's what has you know. I'm guessing that's grown your business, because then instead of just one single piece, then you're selling sets of things. And that's how I think a lot of people like to buy. They want to have everything that's going to go together. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 3:At the same time, yeah, yes, I get a lot of that, yeah, yeah. And yes, you're right, I've gotten a lot of comments from people saying that I never would have thought to layer things the way that you do. Yeah, so things that sometimes it aren't. We all amazed at times when there are things that are just natural to us, when you share them with someone, someone they're like.
Speaker 4:I never thought of that. Yeah, yeah. And and again, you layer all the pieces, you get the earrings, that couple necklaces, a bracelet, ring and you've spent $25 people. That's it. Yeah, so you know exactly.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 4:So you can spend.
Speaker 3:you can spend your money on other things, yes, and of course there will be times when you want to invest in a special piece. You know I have. Bill has given me beautiful you know wonderful Tiffany jewelry that I cherish and I and I wear that.
Speaker 1:Mm, hmm.
Speaker 3:And this jewelry serves its own purpose. I love having cute little things like this for Valentine's Day. You have to feel bad going out and buying something like this when it's only $5 and you're just going to wear it for, you know, Valentine's Day or St Patrick's Day or whatever it might be. So it's meant to be fun and people, it's good to feel good about a purchase that you've made. Okay, I got two questions.
Speaker 4:Okay, so we're talking about how other people feel good about what you do? Mm hmm, and I think doing this has affected your daily life, or what have you brought from this side hustle into your primary hustle? Mm hmm, that'd be the one thing. Yeah, maybe you should talk about that and we'll get to get to that second question after that.
Speaker 3:Okay, Well, definitely. I mean, I feel like every time I go live, which again is three times a week, I am practicing my performance. It is a performance and I do that also in my full-time job. So I'm on Zoom multiple times a day during meetings and I'm representing my company. So it's just, it's a constant practice which we all have to do. We all have to practice. You know, amy, you, every time you talk to a prospective buyer of a home, you get better. Each time you have that conversation. You see you, with your conversations with your coworkers, with the farmers, as you develop those relationships. So I do feel like, over time and just again, because I'm doing it three times a week, no fail, the only. There are very few things that disrupt the schedule. I will be disrupting the schedule for the wedding, mavlin, no.
Speaker 2:Mavlin, I feel honored, although I might have to do some bling shots you know, all dressed up for advertising for you?
Speaker 3:Yes, absolutely we will. But I think that and, and you know what, I hope that heroic. You know, my coworkers, my boss, I hope that he sees that and you know, I hope that he sees the benefit. Yeah, I believe that he does feel good about my abilities, my professionalism, my ability to tell the heroic story.
Speaker 3:And so you know, and he knows of my side hustle, he comes on to my show he and his wife will come on and they you know, they buy jewelry from me, so that makes me feel good as well. He's supportive. But yeah, so it's just. It's just a constant polishing of this, of this ability, I guess, which is so important for all of us as we go through, as we go through life, to show up, put together professional.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so if someone was going to start the room side hustle maybe not necessarily paparazzi or anything do you have any advice you can give them based on your experience?
Speaker 4:Well, what do you? What do you tell the new people that want to sign up with you?
Speaker 3:Yeah, the first thing that I will and I may not say why do you want to do this, but I will have a conversation with them to hopefully get them to articulate why they want to do this, like you know do you. Are you looking to supplement your income? Are you looking to build something up so that you can quit your full-time job? Are you just looking for an extra 50 bucks a week? Are you wanting to do it to conquer a fear that you have? What is it? Because, depending on what it is, then we can craft how you do it, because it's not a one-size-fits-all. It can look different. You don't have to do Facebook Live to do this business. But let's say that it's not paparazzi. Let's just say that somebody comes to me and they say, yeah, I really feel like I should have something on the side. Why? What is it? Just like we talked about at the beginning of this conversation, what are you trying to fill? Because that then will help you decide what it is. I'm not going to lie. This is time consuming.
Speaker 4:It's not easy.
Speaker 3:Yes, it is, it is and I carry my own inventory. So that is like you were talking about what tastes, fully simple. I buy all of my own inventory and then I sell it. So there are just things like that that you want to just ask all the questions. So discover your why Do your research, set your goals and then find a buddy, get an accountability partner who's also in the business, that you can bounce questions off of and that you can have as your cheerleader.
Speaker 4:Sure, I would also. I mean, you alluded to it a little bit, but I do think it's important in situations like this that you get the family on board, Because it will take up time. And, by virtue of having this second job, you're pulling time away from people in your household that may be used to having your full attention, so I'm sure that that is something that needs to be considered it absolutely is.
Speaker 3:Yes, I couldn't have done this 10 years ago. There's no way. When Bo was 10 years younger just would never have had the time to do it. I wouldn't have felt good about doing it because of the time allowed and I was traveling a ton Then it just never would have worked. So that's a very good point because it affects the whole household.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I know, I mentioned it when I talked about being a realtor and how I am just blown away by the single parents. That are realtors, because that's time away and, yes, you're doing it for your family and the side hustle still is funneling money or income or something that benefits either you financially personally, if you're a singleton, but that is time away and the more people you have that are your supporters and your cheerleaders, the more successful you're going to be.
Speaker 3:Yes, absolutely. I am so grateful for Bill and Bo's support. Bill won employee of the year for the year 2023. His prize is an all-expense paid trip somewhere in the United States.
Speaker 4:He hasn't told me where Houston he's going to. Houston he's going to.
Speaker 3:Houston. That's right, but I don't think that. I think he's got his sights set on maybe Florida or other Longer than a long weekend. No, I'll put it that way. Ok, it's Houston.
Speaker 4:It will probably not be one of the men tasked with keeping the broad squad in check and having to. I don't know why that would be an issue Can't imagine. Can't imagine, no. Ok. So we've kind of talked about all this and it's been so much fun to watch you build this and to see such joy that you get from it. You need to share with everybody. How do they find you? And paparazzi?
Speaker 3:OK, and Stacey and Amy, thank you for one letting me talk about this on the podcast. It was actually your guys' idea, so thank you. And for being glamdolls you guys shop with me.
Speaker 2:We did.
Speaker 4:And have shared and all of that I do say that I occasionally call Kitty and say, ok, this is the outfit I'm wearing, what do you have? Or if I come over, I'm like, can we go down to your room? I need to look at stuff in person. And then it's just like it's jewelry heaven. Yes.
Speaker 3:I know I love having people come and visit the Good Glam studio. All right, here's how you can find me. I am primarily on Facebook. This is going to be one of the next levels up because I do need to kind of redo all of my technology so that I can stream to more than one platform. So that is to come. But you can find me on Facebook. My business page is Kitty's Good Glam Paparazzi, so like and follow that page, and it's Good Glam on Instagram. Let's see my Gmail Good Glam great style at gmailcom if you want to reach out to me there. I have a couple of websites also, so I'll drop those links when we drop this episode. And, of course, if you come onto a live, anybody that joins me from if you've heard about this from the podcast I'll have something special for you. I'll give you some free shipping.
Speaker 2:There you go, that's a good idea. Does that work for Stacy?
Speaker 4:and I.
Speaker 3:I know, yes, you guys get the Friends and Family discount.
Speaker 2:Oh, yay, well ways yeah so thank you Thank you for your support.
Speaker 3:I hope that this is interesting for people Again, hopefully it's motivating If anybody has been thinking about doing something on the side. We're always wanting people to be encouraged to chase those dreams, and I'll just close with this. So my word for 2024 is reach the goals that I have for my paparazzi business. I am trying to hit diamond this year before we go to convention, which is the end of July, I am going to comfortably hit platinum. It will be a significant reach to hit diamond. So that is what I have my site set on and I encourage everyone to reach for your dreams. There is no better time than right now to take steps toward what you want, to do Right and nobody's doing it for you.
Speaker 3:Nobody is Nobody's going to come and do it for you.
Speaker 4:Nobody's going to do it for you, yeah, all right. So what are our three shots? Got three shots? Ooh, I have one. Good you go then. This is jewelry related this is in honor of Kitty.
Speaker 4:So I'm gonna say that a lot of us get into this little bit of a rut and we wear the same things, we buy what we're comfortable with and we're just going to the office, we're just going to church, we're just going to the families. I think everybody needs to put on at least one more piece of jewelry. And if you're not wearing jewelry now, I know you've got jewelry, I know you've got it somewhere. You've got a jewelry box, you've got a necklace rack, you've got some rings. I want everybody to go look what you already have. Yes, and this week, every day, this week, you put on at least one more piece of jewelry than you would normally wear. And then you watch Kitty and find out how two more pieces of jewelry just takes you up to even another latch, next level. That's my strength.
Speaker 3:That's a very good shot. It reminds me of, because you know that my mantra is quite opposite of Coco Chanel, yes, yes. So Coco Chanel says before you leave the house, go look in the mirror and take one piece of jewelry off. I say go look in the mirror and put one more piece of jewelry on and then hit the road. Yeah, I'm with you, I agree.
Speaker 3:Sometimes, you just want more. Yeah, we are, it's okay, we are in our statement jewelry era, yes, and we all want more, and we all want more and whatever that. What was that we talked about?
Speaker 4:it. It's a progressive commercial Right.
Speaker 3:Sometimes it's a progressive commercial, but also with each decade we get oh louder.
Speaker 4:We're getting louder. Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 2:That would include a lot of blingy jewelry, a lot of blingy jewelry, a lot of blingy jewelry.
Speaker 4:Yep, right Stace, you got a shot for us, I got nothing.
Speaker 2:I got nothing this time, all right. I forgot about the shot. I have my cranberry vodka today. What do you got White wine?
Speaker 4:I do. I had some girlfriends over to my house last weekend and they left a couple of glasses of wine in two bottles that are in my refrigerator and I need to make space so doing what I can we're glad that you
Speaker 2:could help us out by finishing those yeah.
Speaker 4:True Minnesota style Leave one glass in the bottle.
Speaker 3:I had no idea, I know.
Speaker 2:If we'd have known that, yeah, you would have worked harder for me, you would have worked harder.
Speaker 4:Okay, all right Next time.
