Linda's photos of Paul during the DW

Photos by Linda (Eastman) McCartney 

 June 23-24, 1968 

Just like us -- but not really

 October 15, 2022-

Paul and Nancy are spotting walking around London.   And we notice that Nancy is wearing a Beatles sweatshirt!   I've been known to wear a Beatles sweatshirt!  However -- mine was not designed by Stella McCartney and sure did not cost me over $400!!   But I do have some cute Birkenstocks, sort of like Nancy, but I would never be seen in publish wearing socks and Birkenstocks.    However -- this is a good reason to continue my obsession with Paul's socks.  

Showing off those yellow socks

The ballad of John and Yoko (aka the day Paul showed off those yellow socks)

We could have another discussion about Paul's socks....

Hooray for Paul's socks at Cavendish!

So these are not fan photos at all, and I am most likely stealing Miss Tammy's future post with these, but I just had to share them, because look at Paul's socks!     These are just such happy photos.   I feel sick today and I need some happy Paul photos standing in his socks on the back steps of Cavendish to cheer me up.

Photos were found here. 

Everybody pulled their socks up (an tribute to Paul's socks)

The photo that started it all:   Paul's yellow socks.

This blog post tonight in in honor of the friends I made at the Bootlegzone forum many years ago.  Thanks for mentioning my this blog recently.   

When I started this blog, I had no idea that the Beatles clothing would be such a big topic.   But us fans pay attention to what the Beatles wore and when they wore it.   Besides the Beatles wore some pretty amazing clothes.   In the upcoming months I am going to try my hand at making some "pages" on the blog about some of our favorite articles of clothing.   Just basically put all of the photos in one spot and get the information we have gathered together for future reference.   To get us started, I thought I would post photos of one of my favorite topics, Paul McCartney's socks!   Yes....you read correctly.  The man who made a song called "Lunch box/Odd socks" really liked to show off his socks.   He may be well-known for being the barefoot one that crossed Abbey Road, but the man really enjoys wearing coloring socks.

This might not be the last post on this topic.   Just a warning.

Sadly this photo from a Sgt. Pepper session in 1967 is in black and white. Nice socks, but what color?

For sitting at the feet of the Maharishi in 1967, Paul choose the red pair. 

Paul wore his pink suit in during the Cavendish dome part of the Mad Day out photo shoot in 1968, better wear those pink socks!

Blue for the rooftop!

By the time he was in Wings, he got his wife in on the sock craziness.
