BOOK A PRIVATE PERMANENT JEWELRY PARTY IN DETROIT

LINK x LOU® is not only a jewelry brand, it’s an experience. When you invite us to your party, we bring the experience to you, in the comfort of your own home. We thrive on special occasions, but a girls’ night is just as important to us as the big day. Regardless of the reason, an event with LINK x LOU® is always a celebration.  

The beauty of a private party is intimacy. We get to know you & your people in your true environment while providing something totally unique & fun. Parties require a minimum of five guests making a purchase. The bonus? The host receives a 20% discount on all jewelry going on their body.  

Adding us to your guest list comes with minimal effort on your end. All we ask for is an outlet, a table & chairs, & some good lighting, which we all know & love. This is explained more in-depth in our beloved host letter. Other than that, you party, we link. As a host, you have no reason to worry about us. We’re happy to go with your flow & serve as the main act or just an added bonus. Guests Get Linked™ one at a time & once everyone gets their gold, we’re out of your hair. Unless, of course, we’re having too much fun. This is common, but keep in mind we never link & drink ;)  

Link parties are what you make of them! We love to chat with you ahead of time to hear more about your special event & how we can curate the best experience for you & your guests. You can always count on us to provide great vibes & beautiful jewelry, the rest is up to you!

LINK x LOU® also partners with local businesses in a pop-up setting — find a pop-up through the "attend a pop-up" link below to Get Linked™!

HOST A POP-UP

Pop-ups pop off. Partnering with LINK x LOU® is an experience you won’t regret. As a small business, we are always eager to collaborate with other brands to create hype. Whether female-founded, climate-positive or loved locally, client crossover is inevitable. We pop up with pride & are happy to represent you & your brand just as much as our own. The pop-up side of our business revolves around event efficiency & big reach in a condensed amount of time.

By lending us space in your shop, salon, or studio, we maximize our impact by bringing new & recurring faces in the door. The pop-up version of the Link experience is short & sweet, but just as special as a private party. Appointments are booked in 15-30-minute intervals, allowing ample time for the linker to guide guests through size, fit & the hardest part, picking their chain. This gives the linkee a taste of the full LINK x LOU® experience & extends an invite for private parties or future pop-ups. It’s perfect for the on-the-go gal or guy who is interested in getting Linked & needs to witness the magic before committing to a party or becoming a repeat pop-up goer.  

Keep in mind, this is not our first rodeo. We have perfected the pop-up adventure & know how to draw a crowd. All we need from you is a small spot in your shop to make ours for the day or a handful of chosen hours. The rest comes naturally! Our partnerships are curated based on ethical ethos, clientele, & most importantly, the confidence that we will deliver a memorable experience. After all, permanent jewelry is meant to last. We care about the relationship we’re building with you just as much as the person sitting in our chair, so the more we can collaborate, the better. Let's link up!

THE LINK X LOU EXPERIENCE

MEET OUR DETROIT LINKERS

Detroit, Michigan Linker Mckaela Myers portrait
MCKAELA MYERS
Born & raised in a tiny beach town on Lake Michigan, McKaela has spent the last 10 years in Grand Rapids, MI. A 3x Grand Valley State University Alum, MK is living her best life using not a single one of her degrees. Aside from LINK x LOU®, MK works in luxury retail & loves every minute of it! She is entirely obsessed with CrossFit (hey, her Whoop pairs nicely with her Links ;) ), sneakers, tacos, & Pinot Noirs from the Willamette Valley. 

MK is the oldest of four girls, a dog mama to an 8 year old Australian Shepherd, Zeus, an Enneagram 2, & an ENFJ. Other hobbies include reading (mostly fiction & mostly mystery/thriller), doodling, exploring her new city of Detroit & all of the amazing food it has to offer…& attending games of the not-so-amazing sports teams (despite it all, she is a huge Detroit sports fan), staying active either in the gym, riding her bike, walking her dog, or playing pickleball. 

MK is proudly Detroit-ish (by definition: someone not from Detroit, but loves the city & lives in or is from its suburbs). She could go on & on about her passion for this city. There is a lot of heart & love there, & there is nowhere on earth with more soul than Detroit. The city has had its share of tough times, but few things can break the spirit of Detroit. Through it all, the people of Detroit continue to believe in & work toward a better Detroit. Ever heard the saying "Detroit hustles harder"? MK is inclined to agree! No matter who you are or where you've come from, there's a place for you in Detroit. She has learned that to be a Detroiter, you need just to be kind, believe in what you do, & never give up.

 MK’s spirit animal is an otter! Mainly because she’s obsessed with them. She spent her 25th birthday in a fully immersive otter experience at the Shedd Aquarium. Upon googling "otter as a spirit animal," she found that it symbolizes more joy, playfulness, & creativity in your life - true, true, & true! It's also noted that those with the otter spirit animal take great pleasure in the success and happiness of others and they'll work untiringly to help others achieve their goals. The enneagram 2 in MK can relate all too well. 

Why LINK x LOU®? As someone who lives an active lifestyle, MK loves the convenience & quality of LINK x LOU® permanent jewelry. You bet she competes in CrossFit competitions, goes to the beach, & rides her bike in her Links! & nobody has to help her put them on... & she doesn’t have to lose them at the gym (RIP to that clasp necklace she loved & still hasn’t found). LINK x LOU® is so much more than a permanent piece of jewelry. She’s seen the passion behind the brand from the top down. MK says she’ll never forget the experience of getting her first Links (thank you, LINK x LOU® Chicago ;) ) with her friends & family! She is all about the connection, community, & relationship that come with the LINK x LOU® experience! The 14k gold beautiful, permanent jewelry is just a bonus, right?! 

Fun fact: MK has been to 21 countries (*cue Drake "running out of pages in your passport"*) but never to Mexico & only spent about 30 minutes in Canada while running an international half marathon... & she can't pick a favorite country because indecisive is her middle name. But MK’s favorite place in the entire world? Well, it's a tie between Mackinac Island & Disney World because yet again, she can't pick favorites.
KRISTIE BOLEY
Born & raised in a suburb just outside of Detroit, Kristie is a former professional dancer. With dancing as her first love, Kristie has danced her entire life! She has since been teaching for the last decade. Kristie’s family includes herself, her husband & their two cute dogs, but she considers her students to be children of her own. Teaching dance & training young dancers has been one of the most rewarding experiences of Kristie’s life.

Aside from Linking & dance, Kristie is a total foodie. She loves trying out every new restaurant, bar, coffee shop, etc., & she never says no to brunch or a girl's night out. Kristie is also a lover of travel. She has a scratch map of all 50 states & is always looking to cross another one off of her list. Her favorite destination thus far has been Santorini, Greece. She is looking forward to more international travel in the future!

Kristie’s favorite thing about Detroit? The comeback! According to Kristie, Detroit is absolutely thriving. The city has had its fair share of setbacks but has bounced back stronger than ever. The community is full of passion & is such a fun place to be. 

Kristie’s spirit animal is her dog, Levi, a miniature golden dachshund. He’s a tiny guy with a huge heart. Like Levi, Kristie also has to move her legs 3x as fast to keep up with everyone else (short girls, feel her?). Levi is extremely food-motivated & happiest when he’s hanging with his people!

Why LINK x LOU®? Everything! Here’s to no longer leaving the house without all of her jewelry again because she’s in too much of a hurry. LINK x LOU® has felt special to Kristie since the moment she got her first Link. The pieces are so effortlessly chic & she instantly regretted not getting more. Aside from the gorgeous pieces, the LINK x LOU® community stands for everything Kristie wants in life and in relationships. Dreaming big, hard work, unwavering support, kindness, & ultimately a culture that invites new experiences & making memories.

Fun fact: Kristie is in a movie with Miley Cyrus. While she has absolutely no lines whatsoever, she can confirm that spending her summer filming alongside Miley was such a cool experience!
