Opening The Box
INK+ALLOY subscribers can look forward to receiving earrings arriving in a small white box, typically with their name written on the front. Inside, the earrings of the month are packaged in a simple, low-waste way.
Our info card gives care instructions for our earrings, and lets us know that there is a charitable component to this subscription.
Here's What's Inside
Lexie Horizontal Lines Beaded Fringe Earrings Rust + Lapis — Retail Value $38
It's not a million dollar insight that when we receive a one-item subscription box, we open the box, and we either love it or don't love it. Those first impressions are part of what makes it so exciting. But the slow burn of taking a closer look and finding things to love is just as fun. These earrings didn't wow me when I first laid eyes on them. But I've been reaching for them almost daily!
What I appreciate about these earrings is that they stand out against my hair color and offer some interest near my face, without being so specific that I have to fuss over how to style them. I've found that they wear like a neutral earring would, even though their shiny bronze, rich blue, coral, and peach colors are out of the ordinary. With the white stripes sandwiched between the colors, they really pop. It took me a minute, but now I'm in love with this pair.
The Verdict
It was another set of luxe seed bead earrings for March INK+ALLOY subscribers. The way these tiny seed beads strike the balance between casual and sparkly is—chef's kiss! This pair wasn't an instant favorite, but they've been a real go-to.
