I first discovered Jet Set Candy back in 2015, about a year after it was launched by former L’Oréal creative director / Rhode Island School of Design-trained designer / avid traveler Nicole Parker King, who thought of the idea while searching for souvenirs in Sri Lanka. As a frequent traveler myself, I was drawn to the line’s destination-inspired pendants, bracelets, rings and more, particularly the passport stamp- and luggage tag-style charms emblazoned with airport codes from hundreds of spots around the globe. For my first cluster of necklace charms, I chose to group the cities in which I was born, grew up, and have lived the longest; for my second, I picked overseas cities in which I have briefly lived or have spent a lot of time.
And while the necklaces have not always been in my regular rotation these last couple of years, I have found myself turning back to them now as a way to honor those places I love, and can’t currently visit. With Jet Set Candy just releasing a new pendant online this week—with a portion of the proceeds to benefit Doctors Without Borders though March 31st—it’s also a perfect time to pick up some new pieces.
