“If you’re wondering why I always lock a shoe in the safe now, you can ask Lauren, my assistant, who once had to fly all the way to Italy to unlock the safe because of what I had. left inside,” Smith says in her 28-second video.
“Put your shoe in the safe right behind your jewelry so that when it’s time to pack up and leave your hotel, you never leave your valuables behind because you’ll always be looking for that second shoe. “, she continued.
