We Love Gifts


Gift for SelmA(ki)


Hey everybody! 'Happy' would be the key word for this post - Happy birthday to everyone who celebrates It this month, Happy anniversary of every kind, and Happy International Women's Day (which was a few days ago). 
This post is related to the International Women's Day because the female side of this blog, Selma, won a gift in a giveaway by the sneaker store "Buzz". 
The task was to take a screenshot of a video posted by the shop on 'Instagram' and get as many likes as possible. The winner receives woman sneakers from New Balance as a gift for the Women's International Day. Selma was the winner :D Yayy!! So here you can see what was happening in the store.





Selma chose the '574 Premium Cruisin' model from the new collection, inspired by the landscape of the sun-bleached and salt-washed hues for the suede and textile upper which makes them a perfect choice for the upcoming spring. 



They are very comfortable, soft, warm, and easy to wear, also a great finishing touch to every outfit.




And here is how the first outfit looks like with the new sneakers...
Top - Bershka
Jeans - Bershka
Scarf - Stradivarius
Vest Coat - Custom Made
Watch - Michael Kors





 The staff in "Buzz" are awesome, positive, kind and were very happy for the shooting in the store, they gave us freedom to use the store for some great shots. Thanks to the whole "Buzz" team for this great gift.



Visit "Buzz" Sneaker Station Store, they have excellent choice of sneakers and some other sport stuff. You could find many new models from Nike, Adidas, Converse, Asics, New Era, and Helly Hansen. Definitely worth It you stop by!

Gifts are always a great choice!

Make someone happy.

Different Love Day

Different Love-Day


Hello everyone. Valentine's over and It is time to share some impressions. This is a quick post about how we spent Valentine's Day, It was great and refreshing. We decided to go shopping in Thessaloniki and spend the day walking through the city and updating our wardrobe :) Since we have a looong relationship, we have bought a lot of gifts and made many surprises, so It was a bit tricky to decide what to do. We wanted to visit Thessaloniki because we never went there together, and this seemed like a great solution. Here are few photos of the day...



We started off with a walk by the port in the centre and we grabbed coffee from our favorite coffee shop 'Starbucks'.



After that we went to the shopping mall 'Mediterranean Cosmos'. It is a great shopping mall with more than 200 retail units. They claim It is the largest retail and entertainment development in Southeastern Europe. 


The mall has wonderfull backyard where you can chill and relax, and we took our photos there.






For this day we didn't want to wear red because we are not fans of the usual and clitche things, so we decided that our main clothing piece is going to be a trenchcoat. We love It because you can pair it with pretty much everything and It adds a dash of style to your outfit.

Our day was awesome, we bought some interesting stuff and we spent the whole day together. We hope that you received many gifts and something more important - a lots of love.

Shop, Love, and be loved
xoxo

Ready to Celebrate Love??

Couples, are You Ready to Celebrate Love??



It's February, and that gives us one thought on our mind - Valentine's Day. Our perception of Valentine's is that It is just a day to give your love a bigger meaning, to remember why you love each other, what you like about one another... Actually we should do this more often, not only on this day, because that will help us build a healthy relationship with more understanding.


We have decided to do a post for Valentine's Day so that we give you ideas on how you can spend your day and list a few possible gift choices...


  • Couples Mugs


These are very cute and could be a nice gift if you are in a fresh relationship or you would like to buy something on a lower budget. Similar thing are the recently popular glass jars and bottles if you feel like the couple mugs are a bit of cliche. 



You could find more mug ideas here

  • Personalized Wooden Photo

This is our gift from few years ago, Its is interesting, unusual and unique. You could choose one of your favorite photos together and turn It into a wooden souvenir. 

  • Books

For all the book lovers out there, you probably thought of this, but actually a book could be a nice gift even for those who are not bookworms. There are many great books with love content, for instance all titles from Nicholas Sparks are amazing. More titles here

  • Personalized Pillows

This is very cute and also more intimate gift. But you don't have to share the same bed for this gift, for instance you could make pillows with your names and swap them with your partner so you could see their name every time you lay your head on your pillow ^_^ . Just like we did with ours below


You can find more ideas and designs here and here

  • Pyjamas

Maybe one of our most favorite gifts. We looove pyjamas, and we believe they are a perfect gift because everyone needs pyjamas :) We were looking for these above by Women'secret, but sadly we couldn't find them so here are our pyjamas we got from Extreme Intimo. Both brands have very lovely designs.


You could look for matching pyjamas, they could be a perfect Valentine's gift.

  • Bedding


Here is another idea with the theme of 'Sleeping' :) This is nice if you're living together, and along with the matching pyjamas you will feel like the coolest couple ever ;)

  • Matching Tops


Another lovely gift are these matching tops. This is our gift from last year's Valentine. It is really nice If you have a pair, you will look like the perfect couple everyone loves. There are many other designs you could choose from (here).

  • Photo shoot

A photo shoot seems like a great idea for Valentine's Day. You could do something interesting, something crazy, or romantic... Last year we did this photo with our matching tops for a 'Best Couple' competition, and we had so much fun shooting. Here you can find some ideas for an interesting photo shoot.

  • Spa Getaway

You could use this day for something more relaxing and romantic. Go to a spa centre with you partner and enjoy the indoor pool, the jacuzzi, the sauna and  massage treatments. We had really nice experience at Bushi Resort & Spa, you couldn't go wrong If you choose this.




  • Trip 
This suggestion is on a bit of a bigger budget. You can use Valentine's Day as an excuse to visit a certain city outside your country. For instance Paris. We went there and we fell in love with the city, It's so magical... Here are a few photos from our trip there, and we hope you will also visit the place of your dreams.







and here are a couple of photos from our last Valentine's Day





Hope you like this post and that you will find It useful and inspiring. If you still want something different and you would like other ideas, feel free to contact us via message on our Facebook page SelmAki we will try to be helpful so you can have the best Valentine's Day ever ;)

Love ya!!
xoxo
