My icon

My ICON charm marks a poignant moment in Paola's life when her sister Julia got married.

As that day arrived, Paola found herself preoccupied with playing outside, completely absent from her sister's wedding.

Once she got home after the event, reality hit her like a wave.

Climbing into her bed, suddenly realized that her sister was no longer by her side. Overwhelmed with emotions, she couldn't hold back her tears, using excuses like the discomfort of the countless pins in her hair and her longing for a cup of choco milk to mask the truth—she was somehow grieving. Till this day, she getsk emotional thinking about it, a reminder of the profound impact it had on her young heart. Her brain was confused, couldn’t accept it.

This was it. Childhood, was changed forever. Julia, her icon, was no longer there.

In a nod to the movie "Inside Out," this necklace becomes a mosaic of emotions. The yellow stars symbolize joyful moments, the blue ones hold sadness and loneliness, and the bear reminds her of the warmth & comfort of her sister's presence.
