George Harrison -- in addition to being my future husband (yeah I'm still trying to figure out how that's going to work), he's probably my number one idol for men's fashion. Despite being the 'quiet' Beatle, he was probably the Beatle with the loudest sense of fashion. He saw nothing wrong about denim-on-denim, psychedelic print-on-psychedelic print, or wearing a bucket hat with what look like little animals on it. It was like everything he did was incredibly cool and visually awesome. He painted his guitar, his car, and his house all in psychedelic colors and, apart from a few minor upsets (like that perm he got in the late seventies), his style was flawless. I particularly love the clothes that he wore in "Let It Be." For the most part it was simple functional clothes (jeans, button downs, vests) but occasionally George would break out a fantastic outfit or two, such as the all black suit and black fedora or his rooftop concert outfit consisting of a red buttondown, green pants, black Chuck Taylors, and a black shearling coat.

I know this is back a ways in time but I just found your wonderful post on George Harrison with that gorgeous collage of pictures of him! I have loved George for years too! He is/was sooo cute! :-) I just wanted to say I love what you wrote about yourself in your profile about hoping to never lose your innocence -- I feel the same way! :-)
Dolly, you have totally stolen MY identitiy, I must say....:) (except that I am only about to explore vegetarianism - even moved to a place, where still a bit of the hippy culture flowers and at least you know you're not the only loony...:)
See, even working on the same husband project. :)
Anyway, nice collage you made. But George is just simply too beautiful in and out, so it was an easy job...:)
Oh, and coolest shoes ever at 2:03:
