LuLu*s NYFW Style Studio Event Recap! Part 1

2012

On Friday, February 10th, we were lucky enough to throw our own Fashion Week party in NYC! We called on all of our favorite bloggers, whether they lived in New York or were visiting for fashion week, to join us at Openhouse Gallery for a night of fashion and fun. Decorated to look like Central Park in Spring, Openhouse Gallery was the perfect venue to host our Fashion Week kickoff party! Upon entering, guests were given a Style Map that would lead them to their style destination, where they could then browse from tons of cute LuLu*s pieces to find the perfect item to take home...on us!

Below we have some pics of our lovely attendees, all looking fashionable and ready to party!

Love the brights and polka dots!

Super cute trio of lovelies!

This beauty reminds me of Blair Waldorf! Love the tan and black with sheer overlay!

Such a rosy and cheerful ensemble!

Jewelry Designer Shayla Cox Goes Guerilla Glamorous!

March

2011

For New York Fashion Week, there are simply so many things to see! Fashion rules the roads, sidewalks and stores showing up in all shapes and forms.

This year jewelry designer Shayla Cox and stylist Pamela Shepard decided to team up to create a guerilla installation on the streets of New York. Using fashions from none other than Lulus.com to create a neutral-toned backdrop for Cox's bold ceramic pieces, this dynamic duo was able to attract the attention of GQ Magazine in Gordon Steiner's "The Wandering Eye: New York Fashion Week."

What is a guerilla installation, you ask? Well, the purpose of guerilla art (also called street art) is to create what is usually a temporary work in a non-traditional space. Instead of the runway or a store window, these fine ladies decided to take to the streets where passersby could experience the unusual in an everyday location. Check out the video below!
