An EARTH SANDWICH is created when two slices of bread are simultaneously placed on opposite sides of the EARTH, I read about this in Douglas Copland's "Generation A", well it was not the main subject of the book and neither of this post, but the romantic idea of two friends living on different poles of the planet doing the same thing at the same moment makes impossible for me to decline Sarah's proposal to write about one of our favourite movie at the same time.

Marla…the
big tourist. Her lie reflected my lie. Suddenly, I felt nothing. I
couldn’t cry, so once again I couldn’t sleep.
"The
girl is infectious human waste, and she's confused and afraid to
commit to the wrong thing so she won't commit to anything."
Marla's philosophy of life was that she might die at any moment. The
tragedy, she said, was that she didn't.
I
got this dress at a thrift store for one dollar. It’s a
bridesmaid’s dress, someone loved it intensely for one day, and
then tossed it. Like a Christmas tree. So special. Then, bam, it’s
on the side of the road. Tinsel still clinging to it. Like a sex
crime victim. Underwear inside out. Bound with electrical tape.
Disaster
is a natural part of my evolution, toward tragedy and dissolution.
"first, you have to know, not fear, know that someday you are going to die. until you know that, you have no sense of urgency. you think you have all the time in the world to do amazing things, but you may not live to see that particular someday. so quit reading articles for a bit and go do what really needs to be done today."
I'm wearing:

Second Marla Singer
Tulle Dress: Charity Shop
Third Marla Singer

ReplyDeleteFucking amazing, the pair of you! One of my most favourite films by two of my most favourite blogging friends. I hope you've posted this to the Fight Club Facebook page. xxxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteI love this. Once in a while a film comes along that really speaks to you in a kind of disturbing way! I loved Marla and you look amazing as her in every shot. I always love your make up all dark and messed up! Fabulous xxxx
ReplyDeleteI love this so much, you look stunning. You write so well and what you wrote about the bridesmaids dress was fantastic. The dress itself is beautiful, I'm in love with any lilac or lavender dresses at the moment. You look great as Marla. Every outfit is wonderful, you always capture your sources of inspiration so perfectly
ReplyDeleteHoly cow, you look amazing. And yes I need to watch Fight Club.
ReplyDeleteLORDY I think this might just be the best friggin post you have ever done!!! You have nailed Marla and her tragic existence is reflected in your eyes! Your creativity knows no bounds and I feel like any space you occupy becomes your own, no matter what. This post is more to me than just you channeling Marla, it is a strong message about the urgency of life. I feel compelled to skip out on work today hop on a plane and come visit you!!! I love the sentiment here, the tragedy and the beauty of it all, BUT most of all I love you dear, you are such a beautiful being! The lilac dress, the words from the film, your eyes...I will be thinking about this all day. I have to go see what Sarah did.

ReplyDeleteYou and Sarah have done a wonderful job, the pair of you look utterly stunning.
ReplyDeleteYou always look beautiful, but there's a sadness and poignancy in these photos, and in the writing today.
Each outfit is fabulous, and you look amazing. xxxxx
very inspiring! I loved all the photos and you have a great style!
ReplyDeleteI saw this post and Sarah's and ran away, it was so freaking outstanding!! I had nothing to say that would convey how much I like it. This is beautiful raunch. You guys are perfect slices of bread, white, toasted!
ReplyDeleteYou always have the most amazing posts!!! I love how you wear that tulle purple dress, it really sort of looks like a still from the film!!! You guys are ah-mazz-ing!!! I mean I cant explain to you how glad I am that you are my internet sister because you are such an inspiration to me!!!!! Oh and does that tulle dress have a metal zipper (not being creepy... I hope... I just want to figure out if its from the 50s and if it is you are the most lucky person to have found it a a charity shop cuz those things are EXPENSIVE here!! I really hope that wasnt creepish)??
