INK and ALLOY

2 Ratings | 2 Reviews

INK+ALLOY is a female-founded accessory brand with a mission to empower women through every day, modern pieces that make a bold statement. Their accessories are all designed in Atlanta, and made both in Atlanta and by artisans in India. Their seed bead earrings are hand-woven and their Insider Club sends one surprise pair of earrings per month for $25/month. That's 25-30% savings + free shipping!

Note: This subscription has updated its pricing to $25/month, with a saving of 25-30% off retail value and includes free shipping every month.

This box was sent to us at no cost for review. (Check out our editorial guidelines to learn more about how we review boxes.)

Opening The Box

 

INK+ALLOY subscribers can look forward to the same small white box with bright pink name customization written on the front of it. Typically the packaging inside is very minimal, which is a big draw to this subscription for me. This month we were sent 1 pair of earrings, in one of four possible colorways.

Here's What's Inside

Info Card

 

INK+ALLOY started teasing springtime earrings back in February with some amazing floral earrings, but now that the mild, springy weather has finally arrived in my area, this month's colorful pair feels like a celebration of the actual season finally arriving. The positivity theme this month is perfectly fitting. They always offer a 15% discount for additional purchases made outside the subscription.

Matilda Horizontal Stripe Earrings in Navy — Retail Value $45

 

How fun are these? The pops of fuchsia are such a punch! The quality is evident in the details of these post earrings, which are framed by brass outlines, backed with soft fabric, and really lightweight. Posts don't always agree with my earlobes, but thanks to the nice, wide backs of these earrings, they're no problem. There are four possible color combos for this style, and I personally am more moved by the colors in Desert, but since I received colors that felt spot-on for my style last month, it's a welcome change to be taken outside my comfort zone.

 

I'm generally drawn to larger earrings than these, but with all the color and pattern going on, they're actually the perfect size. I like how noticeable they are behind my hair and how well they pair with the muted tones I often wear.

Verdict

If my soul had a color, INK+ALLOY has made it into earrings and sent it to the subscribers of their Insider Club! I'm really connecting with the colors and designs going on here, and I know I'll get a ton of year-round wear out of these colorblocks.

Value - Was This Box Worth It?

The Cost: $25 per month + free shipping.

Value Breakdown: The INK+ALLOY Insider subscription costs $25 per month + free shipping. For April we received a pair of brass & seed bead earrings that retail $45. That means you save $20, or 44%, by receiving this pair through the subscription. We're promised a 25-30% discount for this box, and I've only ever seen a deal that exceeds that!

Other Things You Should Know

Can you still get this box if you sign up today? Yes, but you might receive a different colorway. INK+ALLOY functions on a rolling subscription model, so your order will ship 1-2 business days after you've placed it and then recur on that same day each month.

Do you think you'll stock up on ethically made jewelry with INK+ALLOY'S Insider subscription?

Hi there, I'm Christen. I am all sorts of things:

🌳 a writer who loves to convey feeling

🌲 a mother who wants to have just as much fun as my kids do

🌳 an outdoors-lover who's achieved #1000hoursoutside with my family

🌲 a low-maintenance self-carer

🌳 a general hungry person with an unstoppable sweet tooth

You'll find me collecting stationery and squirreling away stickers, riding bikes and swimming with my family, creating outfits in colors and silhouettes that make me feel amazing, wearing big earrings, drinking beer and asking my husband to feed me harmonies to sing, taking my vitamins, living for dancing to live music, roping everyone into a craft, being human and vulnerable, and celebrating the phenomenon of being alive.

...and doing it all with energy, delight, and jokes along the way.

Hey Laura! May’s review is launching today, keep an eye out for it! When my box came earlier this month it was empty. 😶 So we had to wait for them to send a new one for the review. Should be up in about an hour and a half!
