This is "Something Borrowed," a reference to the superstitious among us. "Something borrowed, something blue, a sixpence in your shoe." Time is borrowed, the jewel is blue, and the sixpence is in a usb drive in the form of cryptocurrency. If you have seen the program "Say Yes to the Dress," on the TLC network, you might understand the deeply personal and intimate choice a wedding dress invokes, and so I've personified them here. One is accepted the other is rejected. Perhaps there are no ceremonial events that can be more curated by a living person for themselves than a marriage. Skip the dresses? Skip the event? Some do.
