Pura Vida Palma Huggies 5PK
Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
Sculptural Huggies Built for Everyday Stacking
The Palma Huggies from Pura Vida take the classic huggie hoop and give it dimension. A sculpted double-band front catches light from two angles while keeping the overall profile close to the ear, so these read as effortless whether you wear them solo or layer them with studs and other hoops. At 7mm wide, they strike the balance between presence and wearability that makes a huggie a daily-wear staple.
The finish is smooth and polished throughout, no texture or stone to snag on hair or collar. The hinged latch clicks shut cleanly and sits flush, which is what you want for earrings you reach for every morning without thinking.
Construction and Materials
Pura Vida builds the Palma Huggies on a brass base with gold plating, giving the earring its warm, consistent tone. The latching posts are stainless steel, which makes them hypoallergenic and comfortable for all-day wear. The brass base keeps the earring lightweight so there is no drag on the lobe, even when stacking multiple pairs.
Because the finish is plated metal rather than solid gold, a little care goes a long way toward keeping the shine. Keep the earrings away from water, sweat, perfume, and lotion. Store them separately in a soft pouch to prevent scratching, and wipe with a soft cloth when you want to restore the original brightness. These are crafted for everyday style with occasional wear in mind, not waterproof use.
Wear and Stack Options
The Palma Huggie is designed to fit snug and low on the lobe, the defining trait of the huggie silhouette. The sculptural double-band front adds visual interest without bulk, which makes it an easy anchor piece for a curated ear. Stack with a simple stud above or a slightly larger hoop below to build an ear look with depth. The earring works equally well as a standalone for a cleaner, more minimal look.
