It’s time to finally start talking about Nice! James and I visited the French Riviera earlier this month and I finally got around to editing my photos and putting some of my thoughts together on our trip. I’m planning to share our whole itinerary and travel tips for you, but first things first: let’s talk about what to pack.

Summer Style / The Perfect Slipdress

As gorgeous and magical as the South of France is, it’s still very hot and humid there during this time of year. That’s why my wardrobe consisted most of dresses like this tie-front slip dress, this off the shoulder, and this Lilly Pulitzer beauty. Of course, another easy option would be to pack all your favorite rompers. I brought this pink polka dot number along with me and nearly spilled gelato all over it from the famous Fenocchio (whoops). I did pack t-shirts and shorts as an on-the-go option, but it is France after all. There’s something about the gorgeous plazas and secret alleyways of Old Nice that make you want to dress up just a bit.

One of my favorite things to do while we were there was wander the streets of Old Nice, where there are a ton of restaurants and shops. During most mornings, they also have a market called the Cours Saleya market. They sell anything from fresh produce, flowers, artwork and clothing. I ended up buying a handmade straw market tote (looks like this) for 25€ — one of my few, but cherished souvenirs!

Is there anything you’d like me to cover about our Nice trip in my upcoming posts? Let me know in the comments section below!
