I don’t know about you, but to me, it feels like summer is slipping away faster and faster. I can’t believe that August is almost gone. I’m a huge fan of summer and summer clothes, so I’m a little bummed out that it’s coming to an end, but fall in New York City is something to be excited about. We still have a few weeks left of summer, and I will be spending my last couple days of August traveling to London, Positano, and Lisbon.
I had to squeeze in one more vacation before the end of the season. Plus, one of my friends is getting married in Lisbon, and a few of my friends will also be in attendance, so I have decided to make a mini European summer getaway out of it. This, of course, has taken tons of look planning. Since it’s my first time traveling to Europe, I had to make sure every outfit I planned was a 10/10. I love to style myself and put looks together, so this was definitely a labor of love. I even made a PowerPoint presentation of everything I had on my itinerary along with what look I’ll be wearing to each place. Yes, to some, maybe the PowerPoint is a bit much, but to me, it’s just enough, and pro-tip: It helps you not overpack.
As I mentioned, I made sure my European looks were ones that turn heads, and of course, I’ll be bringing along my holy-grail beauty products as well. Keep scrolling to see which looks and beauty products will be traveling with me.
