Stars, Hearts and Polka Dots! Cravebox made a bright entrance into spring kicking off New York’s Fashion Week at Lulu*s Style Studio. The event was at OpenHouse Gallery, during the winter season this indoor park is a place to play on the grass, catch some “sun“ or lie on a hammock. But, last Friday night, it was transformed!

The Style Studio was jam-packed with fashion bloggers including @krystalbick, @keikolynn, and @aclotheshorse. It was great to see their personal styles as they walked in the door. We have a feeling booties aren’t going anywhere and orange is back with a boom!

The event was just in time for happy hour so we toasted our debut on Hpnotic Liquor Cocktails and then added some crunch with popchips.

We then got some makeup tips from NYX Cosmetics and POPBeauty. Our favorite one – “modern cat eyes” - to do this look you apply two layers of liner to your upper lid instead of one and add a flick of color. We also were wowed by the Violent Lips temporary lip tattoos. What a unique idea!

The Cravebox team was there giving out “mini” Craveboxes with Mereadesso Woman Lip Treats, AMOREPACIFIC Moisture Bound Rejuvenating Trio, and EBOOST Super Berry Natural Energy Shot and Packet. The Craveboxes were a little taste of what Cravebox has to offer and people seemed to love them!

Lulu*s took NY Fashion Week creativity to a new level with their Style Studio for fashion bloggers. They grouped the clothing into different looks called Orchard Vixen, Hydrangea Uptown Prep and Roses Sweet Heart.

Their fierce fashion bloggers - @jenloveskev, @ontheracks, and @flashesofstyle - then helped you choose an outfit and you got to take one piece home!

Thank you Lulu*s! We were delighted to attend the Style Studio and we hope everyone enjoyed the “mini” craveboxes!
