There are some mornings when you don’t want to miss a thing. The sun hasn’t yet risen from behind the mountains. The sea is calm, the air cool, birdsong fills the air. You dip your feet into the water, coffee in hand, surrounded by a soft and quiet stillness. Life hasn’t begun yet — but it’s just about to, and you can feel it.

When we think of vacation outfits, the first thing that often comes to mind is the colors and cuts we shy away from in the city—brighter tones, bolder shapes, and subtle touches of skin. It’s as if the beach gives us permission to be a bit more daring. But with that freedom sometimes comes a bit too much effort. And somehow, when it’s too deliberate, elegance starts to lose its charm.

On May 15th, ME LIKE Summer and SEVERİN-TA came together for a private luncheon held exclusively for special guests in the tranquil village of Söğüt, Marmaris. The event took place at Manzara Restaurant, a venue known not only for its name but for its stunning location — perched high above, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of the sea. With its serene yet striking setting, the restaurant perfectly echoed the refined aesthetic of both brands.

When you think about it, the reason analog frames have returned so powerfully to our lives might be something as simple — and as human — as this: the beauty of imperfection. Burnt edges, light leaks, heavy grain... On a digital photo, we might call them mistakes. But in analog, they’re character. They carry the spirit of the moment. Maybe that’s why these photographs feel more meaningful when they’re in our hands, not on our screens.

Departing from Söğüt, one of the most unspoiled corners of the Aegean coast, MedSea Yachts is not just a blue cruise company, but a lifestyle that creates unforgettable memories at sea. This unique formation, where the distinct cultures of Turkey and Canada meet in elegant harmony, offers guests not just a holiday but a carefully crafted sea journey.

The word “hygge” actually comes from Old Norse. In that language, it originally meant “comfort, safety, and inner peace.” It became part of Danish culture in the 1800s and has since become a central piece of their way of life.
