This was my favourite day! Hopped on the 6 to the Brooklyn Bridge, so we could both experience our first walk across it. This was also the first day I brought my 35 mm 1.8 lens along with us and it sure saved the day. The views from the Brooklyn Bridge are stunning and we went photo crazy. Once in Brooklyn, we explored around DUMBO for a bit and grabbed a small bite. Took a cab over to Lafayette and Vanderbilt aka the Saturday Brooklyn Flea. Cannot say enough great things about this flea market! So much amazing junk, art, treasures, handmade pieces, and local food vendors. We spent a few hours soaking it all in, taking shade and Popsicle breaks when necessary. I also bought a beautiful necklace from Jessica DeCarlo Jewelry, which I’ll be showing you very soon.
We then cabbed over to Williamsburg and spent the day shopping and sitting at McCarren Park watching a squirrel hang upside down, two overlapping baseball games, and general BK life. We had happy hour drinks and the most deeelicious meal at Allswell on Bedford Ave. They change their menu daily, which means you’re getting a fresh, local meal. Highlights were the spicy fried chick peas and vegetarian flatbread. Their patio is small, but definitely worth trying to score a spot on. Easily took the L train back home to refresh and have some late night drinks. It was a Saturday night on vacation after all!
{Day 3 BROOKLYN Recommendations}
HOW TO GET THERE: Walking the Brooklyn Bridge is a must. The L Train is also super easy/speedy.
WHERE TO SHOP: I have a soft spot in my heart for Flea Markets, so I very much recommend paying the Brooklyn Flea a visit. Also worth seeing is Beacon’s Closet for their great treasures. Bought a shirt from an awesome vintage store that I cannot remember the name of. Will look into this and get back to you.
WHERE TO EAT + DRINK: People’s Pops Popsicles. Coffee from Blue Bottle Coffee . Dinner and drinks at ALLSWELL on Bedford Ave. Ended the night back in NYC with drinks at the Ace Hotel Lobby Bar, which was always full of cool people. We shared some great convo over 90’s R&B jams. The BEST!
DOPE post, Alicia. Love the pics and sights – and your man is a HUNK! Hope all is well 🙂
Stunning photos, love the one of you on the BB!
