There She Goes Again





































For this "There She Goes Again" post, the spot light lies on Pattie Boyd. I have always loved this picture, on the right, of the model and her husband, Beatle George Harrison. It was taken on May 23rd 1968, the day of the opening party for Apple Tailoring. The couple look stunning in their stylish, psychedelic gear. One thing in particular that I always loved about Pattie's outfit was her shoes. Those beautiful green and blue sandals with a block heel. Not long ago I found another picture of her wearing these same shoes. This time in a picture taken on the 17th of May 1968, at the Cannes Film Festival for the World Premiere of "Wonderwall", a film in which George Harrison had composed the soundtrack for. 

I know that by these dates given that Pattie only wore these shoes again literally within less than a week, but it still made me smile to see her wearing them again. It was really tough to try and decide upon a modern alternative for those lovely shoes of Pattie's, but I decided upon these Privileged Poppy Green & Blue Colour Block Platform Heels. They were on sale for only $45.00 at Lulus.com but they've now sold out. Oops.

    1. I do too. One can't deny that they were a very stylish couple in the 60's!

  2. aww good spotting! I love that film Wonderwall. There was also some furniture and a mural painted by The Fool in the film, and they also decorated the Apple building interior as well! Oh I would have loved to have hung out with them all!
