Two weeks ago I said one of my recent purchases was giving me wanderlust. Did you guess which one it was? In case you didn't, it was the Essie polishes from the French Affair collection, specifically the shade "Nice is nice". Just this one polish has me longing to return to Nice.
Because Nice truly is nice.
When I went to France for study abroad, I had no idea what to expect going to Nice. Would I love it? Would I hate it? Would the people be nice? (no pun intended I swear) Up until the trip, I really did not know much about this city, or the French Riviera for that matter. But that is why travel is so amazing.

As we drove from Milan into the French Riviera, I quickly started to fall in love. Upon our actual arrival to Nice and to our hotel, I knew I was 100% completely in love with this beautiful Mediterranean city. From the ocean, to the people, the culture, the food, the shopping and the overall atmosphere, I couldn't get enough.
Even though our stay in Nice was short, I enjoyed every single minute of it. Since there was so much I did not get to see, I will surely be visiting Nice la belle again as soon as possible. Here are some pics from my trip:
(HIGHLY recommend this hotel, it is FABULOUS)
I loved all the artistic elements around the city. I am not sure of the name of this one, but it would light up in neon colors at night.
La Tête au Carré de Sosno
brings new meaning to the term blockhead, no?
Acropolis Conference Centre
Monument des Morts (monument for the dead)

on the beach. I actually took that cream colored rock home :) it now lives on my floor.
one of my favorite shopping streets. Louis Vuitton, Zara, they had it all.
