Out and about....Prada and Mary Quant

Mary Quant/Prada flower can anyone see any real difference between the two? I love it but to me it is the Mary Quant flower. I wonder how she feels about it. It is worn here by Francesca Burns from Vogue. I have to say my editors are shy and I rarely get to photograph them. On the other hand it is part of the brief of some of my other streetstyle compatriots to ensure they photograph their own editors as they come and go to the shows. I am very lucky to have the freedom to shoot whoever I want (if they let me :). I am shooting again at the Vogue Festival on the 27th and 28th of April. Hope to see you there.

Annelies was on her way to work when we met. How do you go to work? In flats or heels all the way? After I took the first picture we walked along to keep her moving towards work while I interviewed her. Just as we were about to part she asked if I would like her to put her heels on. Now how could I refuse the opportunity to shoot the look in its entirety? Annelies is from New Zealand from Dutch heritage and is a Lawyer. She creates her style by pulling little bit of what she like to create her look, which is different each day. Her favourite places in London are Angel and Regents Canal. Our surprise from her is that she has ran the marathon twice and "heaps" of 1/2 marathons. Annelies look is comprised of Prada glasses, shrug and bag from a boutique in New Zealand, dress and heels from Topshop and the flats are Havaianas.

Benjamin works in international sales for a German company. He had 2 surprises for us, one was that he made a book when he was 7 called Big Max and the second is that his uncle is Neville Staple from The Specials. Here he is wearing a coat he had made bespoke when he was in China, a shirt bought on the Brighton Lanes, Topman pocket square and trousers, Uniqlo cardy, shoes bought in Spitalfields, Prada glasses and is carrying a Hugo Boss bag. It was his idea to do the back shot. I think it makes a great edition to the series.

I think Francesca was bemused to be photographed. Her pink hat and those great boots just caught me and pulled me in. Francesca is a fashion designer for Twenty8Twelve. Her design influences are people, art, everything really. The Tate Modern is her favourite place in London for chilly days. Where she doesn't have to think about anything else. It is inspirational. Her surprise was that she goes to footblaa with her Dad. Not that she follows football really "it is just nice to be with my Dad". Everything Francesca is wearing is Acne, except her shirt which is American Apparel and her bag which is vintage Prada.

Paris - in Peter Pilotto dress and shoes, Marni clutch and Karen Walker glasses.

Here is the wonderful vivacious Natalie Joos. She always dresses very colourfully and as a result is another favourite with the photographers. She is very gracious when the pack gets going and will stand and smile until they have had their fill. So I would wait too and eventually we always managed to get some time away from the throng to shoot properly. Natalie is a Fashion Consultant and Casting Agent but also has her own blog Tales of Enderment where she talks about her life and her love of vintage. It is a great read go check it out.

I know I have kinda disappeared recently Love, Life and the Universe took over, things are settling again. I promise to catch up with you all more regularly soon. Love Dvora Xxxx

I was having a coffee and a cake with a friend when I spotted Lian. Red lips and hair, blue dress. Beautiful combination. It turned out that Lian is part of Trace PR. Unknowingly our paths may have crossed before here. It was impossible for Lian to tell us her style influences as she represents so many cool brands. So in fairness we left the question there. Surprisingly she told me she collects dogs. At the moment she has a Lurcher and did have a Chihuahua. I asked her what her next dog would be and she told me her dogs are rescue dogs so she didn't mind. However an Irish Wolf Hound did spring to mind. Her favourite place in London is Liberties. Here Lian is wearing Prada glasses, ring by this years new jewelry designer of the year Katie Rowland and is carrying a Miu Miu bag. Her dress is vintage from NYC and her shoes are from Topshop.

Anabel told me her friends make fun of her and see it as a bit of cliche to be a dancer and a model. Do you think there may be just a tiny wee bit of jealousy going on here? Her dancing pedigree is amazing. She started her career in ballet but is now a contemporary dancer. At the moment she is part of the cast of Dirty Dancing. She is also part of Matthew Bourne's company. When I asked her about London she said "there is so much to do here, you can never be bored." Her days are filled with castings, modeling assignments, art galleries and when we met she was going off to see a show. Her style influence is her Mum whom she says is her style icon. She said her Mum likes layering and floaty floor length clothing think Biba and Ossie Clark. For her own look today she is wearing a hat from Christys, which was a present from her boyfriend and her scarf belongs to him. (He is also a blogger, you can check out his blog, Maketh the Man here.) Anabel's coat was from Moss Bros and used to belong to her Mum when she was a child. The shirt was given to her by a friend. At this part the conversation she said, looks like I have been dressed by everyone else. However, she bought her skirt when she was in Australia as part of a 3 month world tour she was on with Matthew Bourne. Her socks were from a market, she thought Spitalfields, shoes are Office and her bag is Prada.
