I like to pretend I'm in a movie, dress up late at night, roll down hills and make zines.

2 black eyes and The Beatles

I found some white tights to cheer me up, black ones aren't very summery, or springy and it's getting hot. I needed to smile because this week I ended up covered in blood and tears in the middle of a busy park and with the aftermath of two black eyes and a swollen face for 3 days. I haven't been fighting, it was a football, a football to the face.

So I've been sulking sad and sewing sequins onto everything I own.

But then with college we went to see The Beatles museum in Liverpool...

John Lennon's 24 (?) carat gold sunglasses worn on the cover of Imagine.

Cute leaflets and posters.

The spotless room representing "Imagine". (Where my friend's bottle of pink fanta exploded, a swift exit followed)

A pair of glasses John wore a lot.

This isn't meant to appear here, but it's me sulking in the car.

More cute Beatles memorabilia.

Screaming "Beatle mania" fans.

A fake street in a street but inside.

Stretchy mirrors (I really want one of these in my room) (take that awful body image)

Livin' in a yellow submarine

Imagining all the people

Spot the difference...


This was a really swift as swift can be post, sorry, but I did want to put these pictures up, and I'm not counting it as a ~proper post~ because I have some better stuff lined up for this holiday- YES A HOLIDAY, FINALLY!!

I hope you're all well, and that noone else is suffering from 2 bad eye sadness. xxxxxxx

  2. That's so cool that you went to the Beatles museum! Who's your favorite Beatle? Mine is John! :)

    Also, hope you feel better! And I've gotten hit in the face by a basketball, which was not fun at all...

  3. I'm very sorry for your accident, I hope that your eyes are getting better!
    I'm so thankful for these beautiful photos at the Beatles museum, I hope to go there one day..it's so beautiful and nostalgic!
    So funny that the pink fanta bottle exploded in the white 'Imagine'room, I'm sure that John would apprecciate it and never sent you out!

    1. Thankyou, they are a bit now, I've put lots of different creams on them. It is such a cute place, I've been three times but this is the only time recently and where I was allowed to take my camera in with me. I hope he would like it too, xxxx

  5. Aw Caitlin I hope you're feeling loads better and that the swelling goes down really quickly! At least cause it's Easter holidays you don't have to go into College every day. I'm sure the sequins will work in cheering you up! Love the shot of you lying on the floor "imagining all the people". I saw a Beatles tribute concert at the Echo Arena in Liverpool the Summer before last and it was ace. Not been to the museum yet though. Hope Boom Zine isn't stressing you out too much either xx

    1. Aww ALL YOUR COMMENTS ARE SO LOVELY AND I NEVER EVER KNOW WHAT TO SAY, HOW ARE YOU SO PERFECT? Thankyou. I have been a bit stressed out about Boom, my co-partner has resigned, oops. But I'm going to try and battle on. My eyes are nearly better now, thankyou so so much xxx

  6. Oh no! What on earth happened to you? I hope you're ok! I split my head open this week too. Blood everywhere but now I just have a small staple sized scab just behind my hairline. When tall one should not gallop through doors... But the Beatles museum looks amazing! & you've done more in my mind than anyone has on the white tights front, I can't help but think bandages.

    1. Thankyou. ARGH that sounds a lot worse than me then, it was only my nose that exploded with blood, I hope you're okay too then. It is a great museum. I'm not sure I'll wear the white tights out oh dear :(
