Welcome guys to Feira das Almas, that means Soul´s fair...
At the beginning sounds weird that name and if you are as curious as me, you probably go to see what they have if no one explains what they have on it.
In my trip to Portugal, i discovered so many places, most of them vintages areas, which were amazing and sometimes with nice prices, depend what are you looking for.
Second hand stuffs, always are a little bit cheaper than the rest; obviously vintages or retro copies or new arrivals are expensives.
You can go every saturday, and the entrance is totally free.
That market, is located in a very very hidden street, you have to walk or if you want it faster just take the tube to Anjos stop, and walk a little bit downstairs the avenue until arrive to a bridge. After that just go downstairs, and turn right, until you see a sign to enter inside the market which is a old factory.
First thing that i saw that is a very high trendy tendency in that spring summer are Kimonos.
All of them were gorgeous, and nice quality and desings, but in my opinion a little bit expensive.
The team is very bubbly, and they let you take pictures, try the accesorizes, ask them and also they try to make a good deal with you if you take more than one....Reminds me the hippie style from Ibiza their outfits.
Then, I just saw my favourite stand, RINGSSSS, woooah my god!! I loved all of them, but i just bought two in gold, every single ring for 0.50 euros, so what the hell let´s buy them!!!.
Of course, we can´t forget to mention those gelly sandals shoes with platform that our parents got us for summer on beach...they are very comfortable but i still dont like them at all.
The prices were really cheap if we compare to primark, or even topshop.
In the second floor, i found this stand with floral crowns, but those are very special because you can pick the flowers you desire and they made it, also they messure your head to do it in your shape....What a nice thing!!! I´m always having trouble with floral crowns because they are bigger than my head or sometimes very small...no way! The price for your crown was 7.99 euros.
That is a view taking from the second floor, as you see, crowded and a lot of items to see and try on.
Also you have live music on, and the dj is playing a fantastic music all time with his board!, Looks like a discotheque.
I fall in love with that amazing denim customizer jacket!!! Also the price was very cheap, 20 euros for a denim vintage one, and sewing in a nice way making a lovely tigger...now i ask myself why I didn´t get it....opportunities just once!
One of my friend obsession was sunglasses, so she bought one with a john lenon shape!. Prices are between 5 euros to 15 euros. I was trying to find mine one, but honestly i think when i see so many things i can´t think properly, so i didn´t give me a chance to find it and get it....how complicated are women!! special me!!!
And who doesnt like and need in their wardrove a pair or three denim jeans!!???. I think is a MUST HAVE item, and you can get smart, casual, formal and beach looks, whatever you want to wear, always match with a pair of denim jeans. They sell shorts and long denim jeans, al of them are levis and pepe jeans.
Prices are around 10 to 20 euros.
At the end of that amazing walk, i saw a little storage with so many books, dvds, and music cds. Bargainnnn!!! just 1 euro, but the funny thing is that there are just in portuguesse, so bad!!! I cant understand anything so i didn´t get a book....
Thanks so much for reading guys, hope you like this post and was informative as well.
If you go to Lisbon, please don´t forget to visit that amazing vitange market, for sure you will find items to buy and with good prices.
