My mum. It was her birthday. Her 70th. She looks amazing. We cant believe she is 70 already. Mind you neither can she. Mum has always been stylish. I have very early memories of her all dressed up and ready to go out for the night coming in to kiss me goodnight before her and dad headed out, wearing sparkly dresses, hair dressed and up, fab make up and I remember orange earrings for some reason. I also remember a story where her and dad were going out to a dinner dance and mum wore a pant suit with gold top and white trousers. The guys on the door wouldn't let her in because she was wearing trousers..... Luckily the top was on the long side (mini dress length) so she went back to the car took off the trousers and carried on with the night. I always loved this story. <br />The bag she is carrying is also steeped in memory - for all of us it is the memory of another similar bag she had, had which we all loved. It was so loved I think it fell apart over the years but was missed by us all (I have 3 sisters). Mum found this replacement recently in a vintage shop and I have to say I am envious. I want one. It reminds me of a poem I read once by Ruth Fainlight  called Handbag - or the other way round actually the poem reminded me of the bag when I first read it on the London underground. Here it for you all to enjoy too -<br />"My mother's old leather handbag,<br />crowded with letters she carried<br />all through the war. The smell<br />of my mother's handbag: mints<br />and liptsick and Coty powder.<br />The look of those letters, softened<br />and worn at the edges, opened,<br />read, and refolded so often.<br />Letters from my father. Odour<br />of leather and powder, which ever<br />since then has meant womanliness,<br />and love, and anguish, and war."<br /><br />Happy Birthday Mum. Love you xxxx

When I went back to the store there was a long queue to get in, so I asked for the manager to ask if it was OK for him to come out to have his picture taken and then Benny to see if he was happy with the idea. As you can see the answer was yes. Benny is a busy guy. He works in Hollister (everything he is wearing is from the store), is a model with <a href="http://www.allirelandmodels.com/">All Ireland Models</a> and is studying pharmacy at <a href="http://www.qub.ac.uk/">Queens University</a>.

I had a real treat when I stopped <a href="http://www.shoichi-sakurai.com/html/english/index.html">Shoichi </a>. Not only was he amazingly dressed his story was amazing too. He is a an artist from Tokyo. Known mainly for his sculpture he has also created everything he is wearing, his clothing, his shoes and his jewelery.  If you click on the link above he told me he you can see his home and all the furniture he created for there too. He calls himself a recyle artist as all the materials he uses are recycled. His attention to detail is wonderful he told me that all the stitches in his jacket were individually hand stitched. He is in London as he is taking part in an exhibition in <a href="http://www.flowersgalleries.com/home/">Flowers Central gallery</a> 21 Cork Street in London from the 9th to the 14th of Feb. The exhibition is called Life Believes and is a group show of 7 artists that the owner of the Irish Island <a href="http://www.inishturkbeg.com/">Inishturkbeg</a> brought together. Shoichi is the only eastern artist taking part. He told me he created his sculpture for the show from an abandoned fuel tank. If you are in London and have time go and have a look. This was amazing serendipity yet again, every time I am about to travel somewhere I meet someone with a connection to the place I am going and just before I head off to Ireland (were I am also from off course) I meet Shoichi.

It was cold this trip and rained a couple of days so not the usual sunshine I am used to.<br />Now I dont know what was going on with the people, maybe it was just because it was winter and the middle of the week, but where I find an average of 1 person an hour to shoot in London it was taking me 3 hours to find one in Tel Aviv. I was seeing plenty of lovely faces but the fashion was just not matching up.<br />I had decided to stop for a hot chocolate and a cake and thank goodness Adam was standing behind the counter. Adam is Colombian and is getting ready to apply to the <a href="http://www.bezalel.ac.il/en/">Bezalel</a> art school in Jerusalem. He is a surrealist painter. I wish him every success. Everything he is wearing is from Colombia except for the vest which he had just bought from a shop called 11 Paris on Sheinkin St, which is the same street he is on working for now.
