Blake Lively revealed how she treated herself to a luxury item after she landed her first job.

Lively made an appearance during Thursday, April 27, at the Tiffany & Co. store opening in New York. While talking to reporters, the Gossip Girl alum, 35, recalled a memory associated with her 2005 popular movie, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.

“It was when I got my first job, Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and it was like, what are you going to do for yourself that will be something that will last for your lifetime?” she told Entertainment Tonight.

“I bought the ball bracelet,” she added of one of the brand’s most well-known pieces. “I couldn’t afford the one with the heart.”

She then jokingly added, “I might have had a knockoff of that when I was in sixth grade, but we don’t talk about that.”

For the jewellery store’s opening, the Age of Adaline star stunned in a Brandon Maxwell maxi-dress. The brown leather number featured long sleeves, a plunging neckline, a belt wrapped around her waist and button enclosure.

The mom of four accessorised her look with a gold snake necklace and beaded bracelets.

During her appearance, Lively also revealed that she will not be attending this year’s Met Gala. While this news disappointed many fans, the It Ends With Us star shared that she will be watching the event from home.

Lively, who co-chaired the event last year alongside husband Ryan Reynolds, was asked about her favourite looks she has served over the years.

“I can’t pick a favourite,” she said. “It’s like picking a favourite kid, except I love my looks even more than my children, so it’s even worse!”
