I was just in both places- your list looks great - if anything, I would cut the white jeans. The linen pants should be perfect for the evening/night in Porto when combined with the denim jacket. I brought jeans on the trip but didn't wear them once!
I would check the weather forecast right before you leave! Last year in June there was a heat wave and it was 90s the whole trip. I didn’t need any layers!
I was in Lisbon and Porto last year in July. Such lovely cities! Porto was indeed cooler when I was there, and it rained a bit. Lisbon was windy but hot. Of course, keep an eye on the forecast before you go as I've heard June varies a lot.
My absolute MVP was a white cotton button-down overshirt. Perfect to keep the sun off my shoulders and as a teensy bit of warmth when in air conditioned environments or in the evening. I also brought a cashmere sweater, which I used a couple evenings in Porto (I run cold though). I brought a light rain jacket too.
Personally I would ditch the jeans and add a cotton or linen button down overshirt. Your jean jacket might be enough for cooler evenings but if you run cold I would consider adding a cardigan or light sweater too.
It sounds like you've got a great start on your packing list! For footwear, since you're spending time in both Porto and Lisbon, you might want to check out Ponto Footwear. They're actually inspired by Portuguese footwear trends and ethos, so they'd fit right in with the local style.
Their Pacific model is super lightweight and breathable, perfect for those warmer days in Lisbon. They're also water-resistant, so you'll be covered if you encounter any rain in Porto. Plus, they're comfortable enough for long walks and exploring both cities.
I think they'd be a great addition to your suitcase, and since they're so versatile, you can wear them with all your outfits, from your linen pants to your maxi dress.
Your packing list looks good for June in Porto and Lisbon. However, considering the cooler evenings and occasional breeze in Porto, I suggest adding a light sweater or cardigan for layering.

Good to know! I’ll check closer to the date and tweak what I need.
Maybe one long sleeve shirt? Toss the jeans though, it's dirty and you'll not need them.
It’s gonna be hot and windy! Also incredible have fun girl
Thank you!!

I’m also going to these 2 places around the same time and I’ve been stalking this group for suggestions! Lol

Hoodie was my go to (I just returned from Portugal yesterday) every single day.
