Nicole Scherzinger's over the NYC chill, so she’s reflecting on her recent time in Hawaii, where temperatures were through the roof!

The singer was smokin' hot in her blue bikini, flaunting her envy-inducing toned figure as she dropped some sizzling IG snaps, posing up a storm on the beach.

It wasn’t just a photo op for Nicole -- it was a full-on spiritual experience. In her caption, she explained she was carrying the serenity of the moment with her while in freezing NYC.

Looks like Nicole’s definitely found her happy place -- nothing beats soaking up the sunshine and gazing at the horizon, with a big dose of peace on her face.
