Gala Gonzalez Dior Diary
Credit: Gala Gonzalez

Gala Gonzálezis a lot more than "just a blogger." She is a successful model, having been cast in campaigns for brands like Loewe, H&M, and Mango, a fashion designer, and a working DJ. And somewhere in between all that, she also finds time to run her highly trafficked fashion blog, amlul.com, that chronicles everything from fashion week hair ideas to packing lists for luxurious vacations. 

RELATED: Checkerboards, Bridal Inspiration, and Other Takeaways from Dior Haute Couture

Here, González takes us along as she gets ready to go to the Christian Dior Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2018 show in Paris. A day in the life of an influencer of the chicest kind.

"A natural look for hair and makeup is always a must," she says, opting for a "just out of bed" look rather than overly done.

"The Dior show is so special because it takes place during this magical haute couture week and the theme for this time was surrealism. Loved it! There were lots of suits for women, which I found empowering."
