You ever wonder where stars like Rihanna and Alicia Keys get their cute accessories from? Well look no further we found the source of all those dope earrings, necklaces, and bracelets you’ve been seeing black stars wearing this year.
Cubannie Links is the brainchild of jewelry designer Annie Basulto. This Miami native has been making major moves this year with her handmade accessories.
‘CL’ as she likes to call it, started earlier this year and has already caught the eye of fashionistas like Rihanna (who can be spotted rocking her pieces at numerous events), Alicia Keys, and Kat Deluna.
SOME OF THE PIECES THAT THE STARS LOVE
ANNIE ON HER INSPIRATIONS & GOALS
NAME DROP: Cubannie Links was officially born in March 2007 but was cooking in my oven since Summer 2006. The name is a blend of “Cuba” my heritage, and “Annie”, my name, creating my fabulous alter ego!
INSPIRATION: My inspiration is my Mom and my family. I have a really supportive family that has always been there, no matter how stupid my choices have been! I am inspired by the strong woman I see in my mom and a lot of female entrepreneurs in the world.
GOALS: I see Cubannie Links expanding nationwide, maybe a few Cubannie Links Stores. Not sure, absorbing and learning all that is happening now. As far as I know the future has so many roads and possiblities to take me! I’m ready for that ride!
For more info & to make purchases:
A -you keep doin your thing!! So proud of you!! I know its not easy and you got great support from all your friends and family!! cant wait to see whats comin for next year!!!
That shit’s a hit or miss. Not feeling the names of some of the jewelry nor am I feeling the design. Bullet earrings? You can miss me with that.
I own 3 pair of Cubannie Links earrings and they are the BOMB!!! Very well made.. I can’t believe all these people have the time to sit around and talk shit about this creative woman doing her thing! What are you doing with yourself? Sitting around dissin people on the internet? And the jewelry designers? Hating on a fellow designer? I am a tshirt designer and even when I think other people’s designs aren’t so great I will STILL give them props for getting out there and actually DOING it! People need to calm down and give props where due. I can’t wait to buy my next pair of earrings!!!
MUCH LOVE TO CUBANNIE LINKS!!!
**** I agree with # 63’s comments ! ! ! ****
Annie, your jewelry is creative, fun and trendy. Keep your production rolling.
~ Bang-Bang !
Cubannie Links is on her grind every day and every night. you have people hating, wishing they was in her position, questioning her creativity and on top of that you have other jewelry designers hating as well because nobody is rocking their shit. this is what it is right here, let me separate the dumb ones from the dummies. take a stroll down as you read to see if you find your name.
Daphneyvette you said ‘ain’t nobody wearing bullet in their ears, bitch they already are. Phillyfashionista, chocolatekisses, foxy380, lola falana, niecy, anole, jersey bred323, you told harpo to beat me, cee, gingerbread 21, foxxx, capcity chick, beauty q.t, all of y’all are just hating because you didn’t come up with a idea of your own. see you love to hate when you see someone doing good instead of just giving them the compliment they deserve so as people say when you hate on someone that means that they actually doing good, good enough for you assholes to say anything about it. Next.
willpwr for you to be a guy you sound fruity homeboy with that comment, go check your status. rubygirl just get a life, it’s that simple for you. lori you said ‘ummmm…..no’, well ummmm….yes asshole, she’s doing it. jscene you look like you been passing all your life. tizzy-t, noone is impressed with you either. rachel, she doesn’t need your support now go brush your teeth. last but not least cp and neshanesha. you claim you are designers yourself regardless on if it’s jewelry or clothes, you feel as if you somewhat a part of the game. well guess what, YOU NOT because your shit not being talked about so you decide to hate together against her. her jewelry is actually being rock by a lot of people including your favorite artist. your jewelry is being rock by you so that’s why you hate. WATCH HER, GET A GOOD LOOK, ALL OF YALL HATING BECAUSE HER BANK ACCOUNT IS BIGGER THAN YOUR MOMMA HOUSE. YOU ALREADY SEE WHAT SHE ABOUT, BOI. as far as i’m concern, i will always be on that person side who’s not afraid to take it to the next level. it’s that simple
Happy 18th B-dae chris
I would love to know who your target market is. Do we really need another black or brown person perpetuating a thug lifestyle? If you are a designer be a designer and stop this foolishness. Let a trip to Cannes, France or New Zealand inspire you not ak 47s and 9mms. if you want your line to ascend to greatness you need to know that the world is much bigger than the hood……………get your mind and bussiness right.
P.S. Why do you only have one tank top on your sight?
