I walked behind tourists whom I overheard ask, “Can you find Michele Varian?” I said, “I am Michele Varian and my store is 1 block up.” They were referring to Sibella’s book, which they showed me and I got to see the photos of my store in her book! - Yay.

I picked up my copy of Sibella Courts new book today.

A Stylists Guide to NYC.

There are no words to describe how beautiful this book is. I have lived in New York before and this book makes me want to move back.

Once again Sibella has taken it to a whole new level.

I feel the person who owns these shelves must be my doppelganger. I’ve seen photos of shelves like these before and I love that they are reclaimed wood joists, but the Cafe Bustelo can and back issues of National Geographic? They must be me! (except that I could never get round to organizing my books by color)
