My 4 favorites shops in New York
Taschen
I am a bookstore lover, and so Taschen was my New York crush ! Everything in the shop, from the books to the contemporary furniture, is a work of art. A secret haunt of all creative souls, this chic bookstore offers a cutting-edge selection of every beautiful photography book ever printed, from standard size to extra-large format. Design, travel, comics, novels, music, film.... You can find the perfect book on one of the stunning shelves designed by Philipp Stark.

Package Free wants us to stop throwing things away. This smart concept inspires everything in this interior design and everyday object shop hidden away in Brooklyn.

Sport Gallery
The Sport Gallery is first and foremost a temple for sports photography ranging from the 40’s to the present, all based on the archives of the seminal SPORT Magazine. However, the shop also carries an exclusive line of clothing and accessories that are well-known but underappreciated. Baseballs, NBA and hockey jerseys, boxing gloves... The universe of sports is truly celebrated here.
Sport gallery, 23 8th Ave, New York, NY 10014 - Phone : +1 917-262-0753
Glossier
The inclusive, fun and accessible American skincare brand Glossier has been buzzing in the beauty world. Behind the young brand is beauty influencer Emilie Weiss, who runs the successful blog Into the Gloss, boasting 602K Instagram followers. She launched her cruelty-free cosmetics line in 2014 by including her community in almost all aspects, from product recipes to packaging, fabrication process and sale strategies. The result is an absolute homerun ! I stopped by Glossier’s first showroom in New York, and was greeted in charmingly pink temple by outgoing and knowledgeable beauty experts. My number one pick : their “cherry balm cotcom” lipbalm. A must !
Glossier, 123 Lafayette St, New York, New York 10013
