CHACE-ING THE DREAM

Shit son this man is hot. I've had the pleasure of interviewing him and I can confirm he's just as hot in real-life, and his Southern drawl is a dream. (Plus he's such a gent that he pretended not to notice me tripping over my own feet. Smooth.) He also swore we'd met before and it took all my strength not to yell, "WE HAVE! IN MY DREAMS!" Ultra smooth.

Anyways, here's a shoot of his I found in an old Wonderland (September/October 2009). So good. I actually remember buying it from a newsagent on Brick Lane then sitting in Cafe 1001 and flicking through it whilst eating veggie burger and wedges from the BBQ downstairs. What a cliché - and what a rite of passage for newbies to London, non...? 

Incidentally, Chace stars in What To Expect When You're Expecting, out on 23rd May. I recommend.

PUG IS REBELLION

Going home for the Easter weekend meant finally sorting out the crap that I'd left years ago in my bedroom at my parents' house. And 90% of that crap was old magazines. Which I naturally flicked through. For ages. Here's what I found in a November 2007 issue of i-D. Dogs helping to showcase togs. Yup.

HAPPINESS...

...is contained in this 60 second advert. Fills me with joy joy joy, so much joy. Even if it is for an energy company.

BRADLEY SOILEAU

Hot diggedy dawg, this boy is a beaut. Couldn't take it anymore - after slightly falling in love with him in Lana Del Rey's Born To Die vid, when I saw he was going to be in Blue Jeans I knew it was time to Google image the shit out of him. He's the type of guy you dream of meeting when you go to America (and the type of guy your Mum hopes you never bring home.) 

 

 

 

 

TIME TO DANCE

Jake Gyllenhaal was in my ends and I missed him. I BLOODY MISSED HIM. (Thought I recognised that dingy stairway...). Love this song.

DOGS IN TOGS

Housemate just alerted me to these beauties by Winnie Au. So chic, so refined. (I'd totes wear that floral dress.) I LOVE AN ANIMAL IN CLOTHING.

LIKE CRAZY

Saw this film at a screening a few weeks ago and was so glad I went alone and that there were very few of us in there - I was a-weeping. Silently, mind, but weeping nonetheless. The trailer and synopsis don't do this film any justice at all - shot in just under a month on a Canon 7D and for only $250,000, this is budget film at its best. Being shot on a consumer camera with unscripted dialogue makes it seem like you are merely witnessing real events rather than sitting in a cinema watching a glossy 'we know how this will end' Hollywood blockbuster.

Starring Felicity Jones (she's come a long way since The Worst Witch) and Anton Yelchin as a head over heels in love couple who are torn apart by immigration laws, the film follows their ups and downs over a five year period, showing that yes, love is indeed a bit shit.(It also features Jennifer Lawrence whose career is about to blow up when The Hunger Games hits cinemas in March.)

Perfected by Dustin O'Halloran's haunting score, the film is at times funny, at times euphoric, and a lot of the time, incredibly, incredibly painful. Don't judge it on the trailer. (Or on the fact that Felicity Jones was in Chalet Girl which was shockingly shit.) Like Crazy is in cinemas tomorrow. Go see.
