Where are all our anik-anik girlies at? You who love anything cute. After all, they're just hard to resist. Your abubots are quickly filling up your space-taking over your lives. They deserve to be shown off, either dangling from your bags, necks, or ears. For that last part, we know just the place where you can get the cutest and quirkiest ear decor (and other jewelry pieces). Meet local brand Luwad.
LOOK: Local Brand Luwad’s Quirky Accessories
Just recently, the local shop's recent creation blew up on X with over 6,000 likes and 127,000 views (as of this writing)-and for good reason. Like their previous jewelry pieces, the unique pair of earrings take the form of a teensy sack of calamansi. Yup, a sack of calamansi-three in each sack-plus a sliced calamansi version, hanging off a fish hook ear wire.
Another design shows two sides of a whole calamansi. Upon first glance, and without the hooks yet, you'll easily mistake it as real, freshly sliced calamansi fruit complete with seeds. In case we ever need to emphasize, these will not complete your sisig. It will not produce juice. What it will do, however, is zest up your fits.
Plus, the whimsical collection just dropped last Friday, September 20.
Luwad is also the mind behind the kiat kiat earrings. Although they're not posted on their website anymore, those are like miniature versions of the bag of kiat kiat you see in markets-small, bright orange fruits inside a red bag.
They also made miniature lumpia keychains for "lumpia queen" Abi Marquez.
One quick scroll on their Instagram and website reveals more creative designs for earrings perfect for all the anik-anik girlies. One pair, to be more specific, is for the tita and titas-at-heart. What is it, you ask? White Flower-themed earrings and necklaces. Yup, if the stress and pain of everyday life are getting to be too much, or you're just fully embracing your tita-ness now, these earrings are perfect for you.
The collection features a replica of the well-known white flower ointment They're made from polymer clay topped with a glossy finish, resin, and acrylic paint for all the details. They're then attached to hypoallergenic hooks or cords for the necklace.
The White Flower Collection is available on their website. Prices start at P370 (for the necklace).
Another design that also caught our attention is the bees and bibe pairs. Do you remember that trend with the duck clips? But instead of the ducks sitting on your head, let them hang from your ears. You can get them as singles or by twos or threes. Or if you're into sewing (or had a TLE subject back in grade school or high school), you're very much familiar with the tomato pin cushion. Luwad made an earring inspired by those as well.
Aside from necklaces and earrings, Luwad also offers crochet bags.
