Bluegrass Town to Brazil's Modern City

My week in Kentucky is coming to an end. I'm so sad that my mini vacation is ending but I'm also excited for my next destination, Brazil. I'm leaving for São Paulo, Brazil today to work with Schutz, a Brazilian shoe brand. It'll be my first time in Brazil and all I can think of are the beautiful people of Brazil, so I'm excited to see for myself! Any Portuguese phrases I should know that would be useful?

beijos!!!

You should proove "caipirinha"
It's really great!

I've loved seeing your trip to KY, and I'm super excited to see your pictures from Brazil! You probably know this, but don't forget it's winter there! Sao Paulo is in the south, so it does get cooler. As for phrases, probably the most useful is Fala inglês? (Speak English?) Have fun!!

Ok gorgeous
here we go. First of all, it's SAO PAULO, you miss spelled. I am from Sao Paulo and leave here in LA. I get to visit at least twice a year.
You need to make sure to go to Ka, it's unbelievable, and you ove interior decor you going to appreciate.
Eatly, delicious food.
JK shopping. New mall, there is a restaurant san paolo.
Shopping Cidade Jardim, all stores in the world are there, restaurants Pobre Juan and Duecock
Mani, another good restaurant
Daslu, make sure to visit, you will never see another store like that in the world.
Have a great time and message me on twitter if you need anything

Those shorts are so aawesome and loving those sneakers as well <3

love from the NANA girls xoxo

I'm portuguese but Brazil is on of my favorite contries. I really love Rio de Janeiro but I don't know S. Paulo.

First of all, Brazil has great brands. The have the best bikinis in the world! Check Blue Man, Lenny, Água de Côco Banco de Areia, Salinas, Rosa Chá... (Just a few top brands.)

Check the clothes also. Rio de Janeiro has a more kind of boho chic style than S. Paulo but you can look for Osklen, Espaço Fashion, Cantão, Totem (great prints), Colcci...

Havaianas and Melissas are a must have!

Schutz is one of my favorite shoes brands. They're absolutly gorgeous and very well made.

Don't forget to taste caipirinha and água de côco (Coconut water) and all of the amazing juices and sweets such brigadeiro.

Have fun!

i do love the shirt!!!
ad shorts and shoes areperfect with it!!!
the romantic and light blue accent of this outfit are special and very feminine;))
kiss, AMY

i can see that some girls have already wrote some of Portuguese words and phrases that would be helpful so i'll just - wish you a very nice trip and work! have fun!

- Desejo uma muito boa viagem e trabalho! Divirta-se! -
