The Daily Cupcake: GAGA’S WORKSHOP

Gaga’s workshop

attention all monsters, music-lovers, and creative popculture protegees: lady gaga has hit the big apple. And she’s here for one season and one season only.

Barney’s New York is doing a holiday season special collaboration with Lady Gaga to create an extravaganza extraordinaire: Gaga’s Workshop. It’s pure logic and creative genius to merge Barney’s iconic fashion store with rule breaking fashion icon, Lady Gaga, and the final product is fantastic. Gaga’s Workshop is an “unprecedented project” by Barney’s and 25% of all profits will go to the Born This Way Foundation, by Lady Gaga.

Get ready to put your paws together for the two if you want to hear more! Not only is Gaga’s Workshop a creative masterpiece, but Lady Gaga has worked with designers to create special products, prizes, and collections just for the lucky visitors both to the website and the store in NYC! I mentioned in an earlier blog post about mascara that Lady Gaga’s cosmetics line for this event is not only glamorous but healthy—and it’s imperative that you know that the rest of her products and clothes are equally impressive. Available products range from $225 Press-On rocker Nails to a $95 chocolate Gaga-licious shoe! The craziness and creativity are endless, and for any Gaga fan or style devotee, visiting this site is 100% necessary! I refuse to spoil the entire surprise, but it’s simply impossible to end this post without telling you more!

“Working the Gaga experience,” as I shall call it, snatches your attention from the first instant. The website is literally the most creative format I’ve ever seen on the internet; if you’re afraid of special effects and novel graphic design, don’t bother checking it, but if you’re reading for a design surprise, check it out! Gaga’s Workshop at Barney’s New York also has the right packaging to make you want to buy more. The theme seems to be Lady Gaga-meets-Barneys New York-meets-the holiday season- meets cruella d’evil! The bags are artsy, pops out at you, and are unquestionably original.

As the site will inform you, there are 12 Days of Gaga (for anyone who wasn’t aware :P) and there are 12 Limited Time Collection pieces that are definitely worth your interest. My favorite is the BORN THIS WAY PLAYBUTTON. It’s a pin-on button that has the Gaga graphic on the front and plays 22 tracks from Gaga’s special edition Born This Way album. I adore it!

Here’s the website link, and feel free to check it out!

And, not to worry. If you don’t live in NYC, a few other Barneys’ throughout the country are featuring products from Gaga’s Workshop, and you can purchase and browse on the Barneys website as well!

Don’t let the holiday season get you stressed! Have fun with Gaga’s Workshop, Barneys New York, and you might even find the perfect holiday gift!
