The sighting: Billionaire artist and entrepreneur Rihanna has 8.5 million TikTok followers even though she has only posted twice.
That second and most recent video revealed the famous trendsetter wearing a very interesting toe ring.

The jewels: Rihanna’s toe diamond is a 9 carat pear shape diamond from XIV Karats. It’s simple, just a big ol’ diamond on a simple band. On a toe!

The trends: When Rihanna posted the video of her toe ring on TikTok, the only thing she wrote in the caption was “quiet luxury.” Her TikTok has two posts and 8.5 million followers, so it’s hard to overstate how many people have seen this one video.

There’s been a lot of buzz about Quiet Luxury as the next big thing, but does a 9 carat diamond on one’s toe truly count as quiet? I am not sure.

The top comment on Rihanna’s Tikok post is “Rihanna rocks a toe ring so I went out and bought a toe ring.” It has 31,000 likes. So I think it’s safe to assume this moment is influential.

What do we think? This is bananas in the best way. It’s exactly the kind of absurd, opulent weirdness that I love to see in celebrity jewelry. What is the point of being a celebrity if you don’t have the courage to wear a giant diamond on your toe when the fancy strikes you? Rock on, Rihanna.

Judgement: 10000/10. Male billionaires can waste their money on phallic rockets, Rihanna knows that toe diamonds are a better way to go.

Retiring? Let Wilkerson Do the Heavy Lifting

Retirement can be a great part of life. As Nanji Singadia puts it, “I want to retire and enjoy my life. I’m 78 now and I just want to take a break.” That said, Nanji decided that the best way to move ahead was to contact the experts at Wilkerson. He chose them because he knew that closing a store is a heavy lift. To maximize sales and move on to the next, best chapter of his life, he called Wilkerson—but not before asking his industry friends for their opinion. He found that Wilkerson was the company most recommended and says their professionalism, experience and the homework they did before the launch all helped to make his going out of business sale a success. “Wilkerson were working on the sale a month it took place,” he says. “They did a great job.”
