{ concrete details }

I know that you're thinking that cement feels cold and dark, but just look at how incredibly cool it can be when added into your home decor.

You can go big and do cement floors (love.) or even just adding in cement details like a lamp base or coasters. However you do it, you have my huge stamp of approval on this very modern and chic design.

Want to do a more dramatic eye look during the day? Do a sleek ponytail, a light lip and a perfectly highlighted bone to set off a bold look and you are golden.

Got mobbed by a pack of photographers. Because my friends are pretty.

Took a billion blurry iphone photos of models on parade. 

Still can't believe this is my job and will not apologize.

Spent my days with my two fashion week rocks. Swear I'd quit without Courtney and Julia.

(and our personal photog Thomas. Thanks, buddy. )

Definitely wore a rap battle tee shirt to a show or two. #sorrynotsorry

Swung by Coach presentation and added 100 things to my shopping list.

I hope you followed along in real time on Instagram? Yes?

Hard lines juxtaposed with soft color palettes and feminine details? Yah, masculine meets feminine makes for a very pretty design aesthetic. 

Here are some other favorites:

{ color pops }

a little emerald under the eye and a bright orange lip? yup, we're so into all of this. don't be afraid, it's just a few color pops, darling.

Here's how you can get this look:

{ jimmy choo }

When this bag came in the mail, I could barely contain myself. I ripped the packaging open, carefully unwrapped the mirrored clutch inside and held it up lion-king-style to show my friend Katie, who after a long pause and a hard squint responded : "I don't get it."

It never occurred to me that I couldn't wear my new Jimmy Choo "candy" Clutch with everything. So, I tested that theory out. I wore it with my black curator pants, over my boyfriend jacket and then with the look above. Three days, three wears. So, in the end, I think I'm right- red lips go with everything.

Worn above with my favorite Joie wedges, destressed denim, fitted cropped jacket & tassel earrings . Oh and red chanel lipstick. Because, duh.

{ Dal's tips: If you invest in a designer bag make it a unique one.
If you are going to make the splurge, it should a showstopper. }

Maybe you saw this on insta, but I just had to share it with you here too because that's how excited I am about it...

Yup, so I collaborated with Pretty Smitten (!!) and together we created two limited edition phone and iPad cases to make your daily life just a little bit prettier. 

You can pick yours up here! And will you promise me one thing? I need a mirror insta of your faces and cases... it's all I ask. tag me in your insta-- I have to see.

Straight from Vegas, I hit nyc for nyfw- which I know you probably know (hi. instagram. )

Wanted to share some of my favorite memories and share the inside scoop on what went down.

Arrived at my home away from home, The Empire Hotel...with only the bare necessities ;) 

They are SO GOOD TO ME. Highly recommended.

Gawked at the bandage dresses , and celebs, at Herve Leger. Max- always a fave.

Made a pit stop at Chelsea Market between showroom stops just for old times sake. 

And also for chinese food. At this very moment I wish there were emojis on this blog.

Stopped by the McKittrick Hotel with the Hilton sisters (sort of) for an hauntingly creative Alice and Olivia presentation. 

Got my hair done by Sean at the Serge Normant team. (priorities)

More to come next week!
