Maniboo Florence

Need a manicure?

Kristina from Florence

About me I am an international cocktail that loves good cocktails :) I majored in work psychology to then become a community manager... life sometimes brings you where you should be. There, I found out my love for this city, food and helping the community live at its best, specializing meanwhile in marketing and branding.

""Maniboo" is the place to go if you notice that your nails aren't in the best shape! I live watching Sex and the City while I'm getting a pedi here..."

If you are in Florence and after some selfies you see that your nails are not in great shape, don't worry, you can go to Maniboo. They do great manicures with or without gel and make sure to ask for a massage after your pedi.

If you call in advance, you have a better chance to get an appointment, but if you just show up, Jessica will be sure to find you a spot with one of the girls. They also speak English, so you won't have to go crazy trying to translate what service you would like in Italian.

I love the interior design, but I try not to stay too long so as not to spend everything I have on me in Makeup Forever products and special creams they have for sale. Make sure you make up your mind on what color nail polish you want - if not, it will take you a while to decide, and they are fast! Maniboo's staff will offer you coffee or tea and ask you if you want to watch a movie while you are getting your pedi done, I always love to watch Sex and the City to get in the right mood!

Edoardo

Game changer gelateria

"Edoardo" Florence is a lovely gelateria just on Piazza Duomo that I love. The prices are above average, €3 for the smallest portion, but it's all organic.

Lila Toys

A toy store without gender stereotypes

Their idea of what a toy shop should be is: gender-neutral (it sounds like a revolution to me!). Kids are free to touch everything and to choose on their own.
