Mark My Heart - A gift-givers guide to jewelry for every chapter of a modern love story.

January 14, 2026By Marny Bassett

Some couples measure their love stories in candlelit dinners and double taps on selfies. Others with the slow creep of toothbrushes across bathroom shelves. But if you’re a real romantic, marking time becomes significantly more meaningful and memorable when sparks fly. And yes, by sparks, we mean sparkle.

Think of it as a breadcrumb trail of brilliance. First date nerves call for something flirty and feather light. Month one wants a gleam you can see across a dim bar. Three months into a good thing and suddenly jewelry becomes an accessory other people ask about at brunch. And then one day you wake up ten or twenty five years in with a collection that tells the entire saga.

It turns out love has a timeline. And every chapter deserves a little memento to remember it by. Holly Yashi is here for the whole arc. From sparks and butterflies straight through to the big wow of building a life together. Seven milestones. Seven gifts. One glittering love story.

(And if your role in the romance is unwrapping the gifts rather than shopping for them, send this link directly to your designated Cupid. Subtlety is vastly overrated.)

First Date – The Spark

First dates are glorious chaos. Nerves pretending not to be nerves. Half formed jokes. That electric moment when you realize you might actually like this person. A gift here is light and fluttery like those butterflies you tried to ignore on the way to the restaurant. Think petite pieces that twinkle but do not shout. The Budding Heart Earrings or Blooming Butterfly Earrings are perfect. They bring color and charm with the same energy as a coy smile across the table. It’s the accessory equivalent of saying I’m delighted to be here without panicking either of you.

One Month – The Glow

You survived early text etiquette. You discovered they laugh at the same absurd memes you do. Somewhere between date four and eight you stopped pretending you weren't invested. That soft glow in your chest deserves a shiny emoji in real life. The Budding Heart Necklace hits this milestone beautifully. So does the Charming Hearts Bracelet. There’s just enough sweetness and shine here to say things are getting interesting without forcing anyone to define the relationship on a Tuesday.

Three Months – The Threshold

Three months is where romance becomes repeatable and real. You know their coffee order without asking. They’ve met your friends. Your couch has officially seen two people fall asleep mid movie. Jewelry at this milestone should feel like it belongs in their life and not just their jewelry box. The Esmeralda Earrings or the Love’s Journey Necklace earn their spot as a signature piece. When you’re out and about, compliments will follow. You’ll get the credit. Feel free to look modest for five to seven seconds.

One Year – The Real Deal

A year together is a medal-worthy accomplishment in the modern dating environment. You’ve shared holiday road trips, weird dreams, and the odd crisis over dinner plans. This is the moment when jewelry becomes a touchstone. The Eternal Rose Pendant Necklace or the heartfelt message inside the Roman Cuff Bracelet feel exactly right. These are pieces that say we chose each other every week for a year and we are still excited to wake up and do it again. They shine without fuss and they carry memories of twelve months of tiny victories.

Five Years – The Root System

At five years you know each other the way gardeners know soil and seasons. You’ve watched strength grow and quirks blossom into something almost charming. Five years calls for jewelry with staying power and substance. Think sculptural metals saturated color or heart motifs that have graduated to the grownup table. The Climbing Rose Earrings or All A Flutter Earrings bring depth and warmth to this milestone. They feel beautifully grounded just like a relationship that has taken root in real life.

Ten Years – The Legacy Years

A decade is basically six mini relationships under one roof. You have evolved together, tolerated each other’s playlists, and perfected the art of tag-team grocery shopping. Ten years is a milestone worth marking loudly. The Eternal Rose Earrings or 2026 Valentine’s Limited Edition Earrings are exactly the mood. These are heirlooms-in-training pieces and someday grandkids will fight over who gets them. Feel proud now.

Twenty Five Years – The Icon Era

Twenty five years means you’ve co-authored a saga. You’ve reinvented yourselves more than once and endured everything life thought it could throw your way. Jewelry at this milestone should be sweeping, unforgettable and worthy of applause. The Hawaiian Wedding Earrings and the Stella Starburst Ring are a fully radiant ensemble of pure celebration. These are the pieces that mark not just a year but a life built together. In the end, every love story is really a series of moments. First spark. Daily discovery. Commitment. Seasons. Adventures. And Holly Yashi is ready to mark every single one with a keepsake that turns time into treasure.
