Authentic Alfama in Lisbon, Portugal

Hello from beautiful Lisbon, Portugal. 🇵🇹

If you’ve been following my recent European adventures on Instagram, this spot may look familiar. Alfama is the oldest neighborhood in Lisbon with narrow streets covered in cobblestone, graffiti walls and beautiful mosaics. This traditional side of Lisbon is a must-see and experience. As a solo traveler, I loved walking up to the top of Alfama and enjoying this beautiful view. Not to mention, every street has something unique to explore.

Alfama is definitely one of the top Instagrammable locations in Lisbon. It is a colorful district with lots of character and charm. Tram 28 is another major attraction in Alfama. Even if you don’t ride the tram, you can’t miss snapping a pic or two.

If you like to feel the vibe of the neighborhood, explore one of the cute little restaurants or enjoy a glass of wine admiring the sunset and this gorgeous view of Lisbon up top.

Accessories Are Everything…

Happy Friday, world! 🍸

Surprisingly I’m home tonight working on the blog as I have been neglecting it for the last couple months. It’s nice to take a break from traveling and be home for the next few weeks. Although I can’t wait for my upcoming vacation to Europe. I will be seeking some outfit inspiration, so feel free to share with me your fabulous ideas and suggestions!

I’ve been wanting to wear this outfit for a while. Truth is that it’s just been way too hot in Vegas this summer. I fell in love with this plunging flare jumpsuit on Forever 21, but it’s not one of my most practical buys. The cleavage is a bit too open for my taste, so I decided to style it with a bralette from the VS summer sale. What I’m most excited about, is this belt bag I found at Topshop in London. Talk about shoppers’ heaven!

What are some looks you are obsessed with lately?

Styling Stripes in the Desert

There is something fascinating about the desert! 🌵 I love shooting here, and even though I go to the same spot every time, I find something different. If you have plans to visit Las Vegas, you should definitely make time to explore Red Rock Canyon. There are so many insta moments to collect there, and the energy is amazing.

This time I decided to add a pop of color and style stripes on my 5-ft height figure. Say whaat! I love a lot of color, and more so I am not afraid to experiment with prints. You shouldn’t be either! Find the colors that work for you and start having fun! Whether its stripes, flowers, geometric figures or even polka dots, add it to your closet. You can thank me later. 😉

If you need help, or have questions DM me on Instagram @eurochique. Until then… Au Revoir 💋
