1. Mark Hamill stars in Rag & Bone’s new newest face. Let’s just say the fashion is strong with this one.

2. Chanel’s focus on Cuba continues in a new cruise campaign.
“Back in May, Chanel became the first luxury house to hold a runway show in Havana, Cuba — designer Karl Lagerfeld had never even visited the island until days before the event — and flew 700 guests and 45 models to the picturesque (and very trendy) locale for a weekend-long extravaganza to celebrate the French label’s cruise 2016/2017 collection.”

4. Two Bachelor contestants got their happy ending, together.

5. If you’re in need of a chuckle, check out this artist’s interpretation of his son’s doodles.
“Artist and dad of a 6-year-old child named ‘Dom’ has created an instagram account that chronicles his quirky drawings, paired with ‘lifelike’ versions hilariously recreated in Photoshop. As part of the ongoing project ‘Things I Have Drawn’, childlike illustrations of animals, cars, people and plants are paired with professionally-rendered ‘real’ renditions in all of their anatomically-incorrect glory.”
