One of the wonderful things about New York Fashion Week is reconnecting with friends (new & old) over fashion, beauty and entertainment.  Many friends made over the years through cross country conferences, fashion shows and even online relationships build via social media.

Taking a much needed break from the runway shows during New York Fashion week, an eclectic mix of beauty and fashion media, influencers and tastemakers came together to celebrate the bi-annual Cocktails & Couture at Caravan Stylist Studio. Hosted by Cocktails & Couture Founder and veteran beauty expert, Lianne Farbes, guests were treated to blowouts by BabyLiss, manicures by Oasis Day Spa, beauty products by Tarte Cosmetics, travel cases by CupCase Your Bras, skincare products by Proactiv, cocktails and sweets by Hpnotiq, hors d’oeurves by Honeybun Catering, music by DJ Belle DE Jour and a rocking gift bag provided by top beauty brands listed below!

As an added bonus, Proactiv held a raffle where one lucky reader won an Alexander Wang handbag in addition to other guests winning C +C raffle prizes from Clarisonic, DDF, Ulta Beauty and Hpnotiq!
