Now it's a celebrities-only event, with tickets costing between $5000 and $15,000. It's turning museum culture, which should be open to everyone, into celebrity culture, excluding "common folk". The Costume Institute used to be a department devoted to the history of clothing. Now it has become just as exclusive, snobbish, and difficult as a fashion magazine or fashion house.

Very useful for laundry, groceries etc.- I have a bunch. Yes, if there are 99c cent stores near you, you'll see them a lot. Many of the kids at the residential home where I work move in with their clothes etc. in black garbage bags ... a good deal sadder than using these plaid ones. onemorefoldedsunsethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05995652957356064546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-37469858758724027552013-05-07T15:05:11.881-04:002013-05-07T15:05:11.881-04:00i have seen that clip before from youtube. it remi...i have seen that clip before from youtube. it reminds me the bret ellis novel, the horrible one i wouldnt read. lauranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-69518121523331025362013-05-07T14:53:44.255-04:002013-05-07T14:53:44.255-04:00the bags are ugly, end of case. i dont like plasti...the bags are ugly, end of case. i dont like plastic or plaids. i always carried a large brown/maron color straw bag for laundry. it maybe was made of nylon but looked like japanese laquered baskets. thank you for sharing what the tasteless masses like, & will pay hunrads of $$$ for. lauranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-72001286172930160522013-05-07T14:06:30.054-04:002013-05-07T14:06:30.054-04:00Judging by the backroom at my dropoff laundry, the...Judging by the backroom at my dropoff laundry, they've been replaced by Ikea bags.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-683382864156505640.post-79283413063378964982013-05-07T13:02:49.475-04:002013-05-07T13:02:49.475-04:00So glad they included the piss in the re-created b...So glad they included the piss in the re-created bathroom.
