My kind of event is happening this weekend. A two days event dedicated to shoes. That’s right, a sea of shoes…
For some reason it feels like a graduation reunion of all my favorite Israeli designers. Liebling, MYKA, Una Una, Shani Bar, Michal Miller and many many more are gonna be waiting for all the shoe lovers out there… I wish you all could be here! There is so much talent there and I can’t wait to discover which pair will find it’s way to my own shoe kingdom.
BTW, The reason I wanted to write this post is the beautiful pictures of the mega talented photographer Yanai Yechiel so I guess I should have started with him…

I kept hearing the name Noa Kedmi all over and I was thrilled when she wrote me and told me about her latest revelation.
As a recent textile design graduate Noa began taking pictures of her fellow graduate’s graduation projects, only then she discovered that photographing textile is exactly what she wants to do for the rest of her life. She knows all the inside secrets so that’s why her photographs tell a different story.
Here is a glimpse of Noa’s pictures of Tal Lebendiger’s “Between the Knots” graduation project.

Over the weekend I went to see the documentary Life in Stills by Tamar Tal. “At the age of 96, Miriam Weissenstein never imagined that she would be facing a new chapter in her life. But when The Photo House was destined for demolition, even this opinionated and uncompromising woman knew she needed help.” Everyone who knows how it feels to watch your loved ones grow old will find this piece overwhelming. For me, the special bond between Miriam and her grandson Ben is priceless and a lesson to be learned. I can’t explain all the emotions that ran through me… Tamar, just wanted to say THANK YOU!
