Elle proves that sometimes, pink stilettos and ambition can go hand in hand. She takes herself from her sorority house to the top of Harvard Law, showing that investing in your own growth and skills is always worth it.

Rom-coms love messy love stories—but when it comes to money, independence matters. Take Bea: sharp, witty, and financially capable. She can handle herself without relying on anyone else, even while navigating romantic drama.
