Gold Black White Triple Disc Earrings — Retail Value $38
1 of 2
January's earrings are so much fun. Their stacked discs have black-and-white beading, and mine have metallic "gold" (more like bronze) centers. They're an awesome way to spice up an outfit without introducing too much extra color—a problem that maybe not everyone has, but I occasionally need to tone down the rainbow I'm wearing!
Subscribers are sent one of three Triple Disc colorways at random. The other variations have rust or peacock-blue centers. I personally love them all and feel you can't go wrong this month.

I popped these earrings right on with the outfit I was wearing that day and headed out the door to meet my family for brunch. I thought they went with a hoodie and beanie perfectly, but would absolutely wear them with something nicer—a sweater or a dress. I've had my eye on the checkerboard trend over the past couple of years but not been sure if I want to fully commit to it, and these earrings feel like a checkerboard-adjacent design that let me dip my toe. I'm having a blast styling them!
Verdict
Hello 2023, and hello to these black-and-white checkerboard earrings from the INK+ALLOY Insider Club! They welcomed us into the new year with such balance: contrasting colors that are bold without being overly bright, and a unique design that's as well-suited to super-casual outfits as it is to something spiffier. Fantastic start to the year!
