Savor the Summer: Côte d’Azur-Inspired Salads for Sunlit Days

There’s something undeniably magical about summer along the French Riviera.

From the golden light that bathes the pastel villages to the scent of rosemary drifting from cliffside kitchens, the Côte d’Azur offers a way of life that’s as elegant as it is effortless. It’s not just about where you are, it’s about how you live: slowly, beautifully, with style and with intention.

At Roses and Dreams, we believe that style doesn’t end with what you wear, it’s how you gather, what you serve, and how you make the everyday feel like a holiday. Inspired by long lunches in shaded courtyards, barefoot garden picnics, and baskets brimming with market-fresh produce, we’ve created a trio of summer salads that echo the romance of Riviera living.
