A Portuguese-American Love Story
In the 1950’s a beautiful, intelligent female pharmacist from Lisbon, Portugal became pen pals with a handsome, sweet man in Tampa, Florida. They wrote each other back and forth for a few months, and eventually started to form a strong friendship. So strong that the man invited the woman to take a holiday to visit him in Tampa so they could meet in person.
The day finally came when the two met, and sparks flew! After a few weeks of hanging out, he asked her to marry him, and she never looked back.
They got married, and a few years later they had a baby girl named Maria. That baby was my mom!
I’ve never had a chance to visit Portugal, but I live vicariously through stories like this one that my mom has told me over the years (this one is my favorite). I’ve always been very proud of my Portuguese heritage (as well as my German and African American heritage), and even took Portuguese in college to learn the language. So when I saw this shirt, I knew I had to have it!
Verão Em Porto is Portuguese and translates to “Summer in Porto” (it should really say Verão no Porto, but oh well). Porto is a coastal city in Northwest Portugal, only about an hour and a half south of the Minho wine region where Vinho Verde wines are produced.

Vinho Verde
Vinho Verde (“green wine”) is a dry, white, low alcohol, fizzy, young wine that is super refreshing and perfect for day drinking.
This fizzy-limeade-like wine can be made from a blend of 25 different white grapes indigenous to Portugal like Alvarinho, Loureiro, and Trajadura!
If you need an under-$10 poolside beverage
you can drink all day without needing a nap, try a Vinho Verde. They are so easy to drink, and with its soaring popularity in the US, you should be able to find it at your local wine store.
Here I’m drinking the Broadbent Vinho Verde, which was refreshingly crisp with notes of green apple, lime zest and flowers on the nose, and a dry and spritzy finish on the palette. Super easy to drink, 9%ABV (again, perfect for day drinking) and only $8.99!
You can buy it here– thank me later.

Portugal Inspired Summer Style
I don’t normally wear graphic t-shirts, but when I do, I pair them with a tropical print turban, a bamboo purse and chambray sandals!
This shirt on its own is pretty plain, so I knew I needed to add in some color when I styled it. My turban is perfect for summer, and it’s under $6! The yellow tassel earrings added a much needed pop of color that tied in perfectly with the turban headband. My chambray shoes are so comfy and under $30!
Like I said, I’ve never been to Portugal (it’s on my bucket list!), but my good friend Jordan from Dancing for Donuts has an awesome travel guide she published from her trip last year! She even has a whole section dedicated to Porto (such a beautiful city that I tried to channel in this post)! Check it out if you’re planning to visit anytime soon.
How do you style your t-shirts? Tell me in the comments below!
Felicidades,
Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize. Watches are my go-to, but as of late I’ve been mixing in bracelets and necklaces as well. When it gets cold, I’ll add a light jacket or cardigan. Great post!

So glad you liked the post, Doug! Watches and bracelets are always a great and easy way to add some personality to your t-shirt style. I also love cardigans for fall!

Thank you! I’m so glad you loved it, that story is one of my all time faves. And yes to styling t-shirts with girly skirts!

So much love to ya ?
I enjoy what you guys are up too. Such clever work and coverage!
Keep up the excellent works guys I’ve included you guys to my blogroll.
Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme of this blog.
It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s challenging to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appearance.
I must say you have done a very good job with this. In addition, the blog loads super fast
for me on Firefox. Outstanding Blog!
