Opening The Box
INK+ALLOY subscribers can look forward to receiving earrings arriving in a small white box. Inside, the earrings of the month are packaged in a simple, low-waste way.
Our welcome card for January gives us a checklist of things to do in 2026. There's something for movement, creativity, exploration, and more. Some great ideas on here!
Here's What's Inside
There's a little variation in the ways that INK+ALLOY packages our earrings for us—sometimes in a poly bag, and other times in a paper bag with no adhesive. I appreciate this eco-friendly option.
Marilyn Solid Beaded Fringe Earring Silver — Retail Value $40
This month I was sent a pair of silver seed bead earrings. And, to be honest, I pondered whether they could be considered a duplicate from last month. There are minor differences: these earrings are a solid color versus striped, and they're posts instead of hooks. I'm not usually one to turn down earrings that resemble each other, because even small differences can change the vibe, but these ones serve a very similar function to last month's. Note that if you ever receive a duplicate pair, INK+ALLOY will replace them. Would you reach out in this situation? What color did you receive?
All that aside, I'm loving these earrings paired with my coziest sweater. In December I pondered whether sparkly beaded earrings were something I could pull off for everyday, turns out all I needed was to lean into the contrast between sparkle and snuggle!
The Verdict
INK+ALLOY sent me another pair of sparkling beaded fringe earrings for January. While the wow factor is dimmed by their similarity to the earrings I received last month, stand-alone they are a lovely pair.
