SPRING VIBES

More and more colors please! Spring brings all the beautiful blossoms to Istanbul, sky starts to get bright and the Bosphorus looks even more magnificent.
All these colors also come to our office.

The perfect idea to do in spring if you are in Istanbul is to take a ferry to one of the islands. It takes around one hour to go and you won´t believe how quite it will feel comparing to Istanbul even though they are in such short distance!

When spring comes, colorful peshtemals go out as they are so easy to carry in the bag for a quick picnic, beach or when you just want to lay down and enjoy the sun.

You can find them HERE

Right before summer comes it s a good idea to freshen the skin with Traditional organic soaps that are handmade in Turkey and each one has different plant based ingredients that can also cure blemishes. 

You can find them HERE

Hope the spring came to your home town too and if you are planing to visit Istanbul, do not forget to send us an email for tips :-)

TREND ALERT - ROUND BEACH TOWELS / PESHTEMALS

Since I have started to do yoga, I am in love with all different & colorful sports bra, leggings, yoga tops and mats! With the amazing spring&summer mornings, the best thing is to wake up around 6:00 and have a peaceful Vinyasa at the beach.

As I do it at least two times a week, I notice that the yoga mat is not that comfortable on sand, as they are rather small, I always get sands all over my hair, arms and legs at the end.
And so lately I am in love with the Round Peshtemal Towels! They are just perfect to do yoga on and if i want to jump to sea I use them to dry (they are really absorbent and dry so fast!) They are also perfect as beach towels, especially if you want a little more space to lay down and place your stuffs (cosmetic bag, sunglasses, sunscreen etc..) on the towel instead of the sand. They are thick enough to use when relaxing on hammock and maybe even as a colorful summer rug in a summer house!

Turkish Peshtemal, what is so special about it?

Turkish Peshtemal is known as Traditional Turkish Towel and used in the Turkish Baths. Peshtemals can be in very different colors and styles.

The peshtemal absorbs water as fast as a traditional towel, dries more quickly, takes up less space an is very easy to carry! Because of these reasons, it is a great alternative to the traditional towel in bathroom, SPA, beach, pool, sport facilities and for a baby care. Grand Bazaar is a great spot to find your unique peshtemal, if you don't have a chance to come, you can always shop these beautiful peshtemals and other Turkish handcrafts from Grand Bazaar online!
