LOOKBOOK + TRAVEL DIARY | A DAY AT THE ABQ RAIL YARDS AND FARMER'S MARKET

HAPPY AUGUST, EVERYONE!

I SPENT A LOVELY SUNDAY MORNING AT THE RAIL YARDS MARKET, WHICH IS LOCATED AT THE ALBUQUERQUE RAIL YARDS IN NEW MEXICO.

IT HAS BEEN THE BACKDROP FOR MANY blockbuster MOVIES, INCLUDING TRANSFORMERS AND THE AVENGERS, AND IS SUCH A COOL LOCATION WITH SO MUCH CHARACTER THROUGH THE BROKEN GLASS. 

I IMAGINE IT WAS QUITE THE TRAIN STATION IN ITS DAY AND IT DEFINITELY MADE FOR A UNIQUE BACKGROUND TO SHOOT MY LOOKBOOK AS WELL!

THEY TURN IT INTO A CHARMING FARMER'S MATKET ON SUNDAYS FROM MAY THROUGH OCTOBER.  I LOVE EXPLORING FARMER'S MARKETS IN DIFFERENT CITIES SINCE MY visit to THE ASPEN MARKET LAST SUMMER, ONE OF MY FAVORITES!

BELOW, I TAKE YOU ALONG via SOME OF MY TRAVEL DIARY HIGHLIGHTS. ❤

TRAVEL DIARY: ASPEN, COLORADO - DOWNTOWN AND THE ASPEN SATURDAY MARKET

Happy Saturday, Bogland!
Every Saturday, during the warmer months, they have the Aspen Saturday Market from 8AM - 3PM.  
It is an outdoor Farmer's Market complete with fresh fruits (the cherries and Palisade Peaches are fantastic), vegetables, breads, cheeses, wine, pastries  crafts, jewelry, clothing, art and so much more located in the heart of downtown.  
Needless to say, it was our first stop on Saturday at 8AM, and we walked the couple miles from our rental home to town, which was just beautiful!
I spent the late afternoon and early evening blogging outside at our rental home, enjoying the beautiful view before enjoying a lovely glass of wine at sunset.  
Below are pictures from that and our morning and afternoon walking around downtown, at the market, looking at art sculptures and more.  Enjoy!

Beautiful center of downtown, they have done a fantastic job!

Loved this pink vespa!

Lama downtown, too cute!

Aspen is such a biking town, and I love their how beautifully they display all their plants and flowers.

Blogging from the backyard of our rental home is so relaxing with just a calming view - this is the life!
