apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Dennis Quaid's Casual
GQ, October '08

092608quaidbooks.jpgThe GQ spread featuring Dennis Quaid reads all about no-rules, casual weekend menswear. But of course, we're more interested in the room. This shoot, which features plaids and tweeds and argyles (love), was set among this great room and many other outdoor scenes.

 
 

The great warmth of floor-to-ceiling books, records and photos, blends with floors, built-in shelves and a ceiling that take wood to its wonderful extreme. Add an old piano and a wicker ottoman and this is one cool, casual weekend space.

Based on that photo, it looks less "Dennis Quaid's Casual" and more "Dennis Quaid's Drunk".

I'm still trying to absorb the thought of anyone wearing a hoodie and pants that cost $5,000. And these are his "casual weekend" clothes! What does he spend on his dress clothes?

I have a hard time hearing about how a star's casual anything when they have a ton of disposable income. And $5k for a hoodie and pants is just insanity.

I think he might be the only slightly older man I'd like to do dirty things to...on that ottoman...minus those expensive casual duds.

Oh, yes...

To me - I like his style (and I'd date him too)

He probably got the clothes for FREE and paid a ton of money for doing the shoot. Wake up and smell the roses.
He is the business of making money off his body and mind---actor they call it.
Being a star is Hollywood is getting harder and harder and one needs to pay the rent and keep their name in the news---good or bad.

Don't ALL men have Peter Pan syndrome? At least the good ones do. I would be ecstatic to have a handsome, goofy, and slightly cocky husband at his age.

I do agree with the overpaid part, though...fo' sure.

Umm....I just think this is hot, that's all. He's cute, the photos are cute, the clothes were donated by designers looking for press in GQ, which is mostly read by men who CAN afford those clothes.

I do think it's funny that he is in GQ and Meg Ryan is in InStyle this month, yapping away about how he cheated on her so she cheated on him.

Kimber----when your Peter Pan flies off with another, you will not be so ecstatic---and you will not be so young anymore to catch another PP. Then I guess you will need to settle for an old Peter with lots of money! :-)
