Damn, what is wrong with this world -- too materalism and greed or is it egotical??? Who in their right mind would want to spend that kind of money when there are so many suffering in this world in term of poverty!  That kind of money can help feed the poor or help many homeless people in this country or many other countries.  I am not ignorant to the fact that there are many people who wouldn't mind spending that kind of money because to them, it is just peanut, what a sad world we live in.   ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Franklin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2006 7:59AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on $100,000 Balenciaga Leggings]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/11/15/100-000-balenciaga-leggings/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/11/15/100-000-balenciaga-leggings/</guid><description><![CDATA[So does anyone believe that the same people that purchase these leggings for $100,000.00 would be willing to buy a sandwich for a destitute person?

Wake up rich people...there are people who need help...send $99,980 to Katrina victims or something and buy a nice $20 pair of leggings.  Ones that don't look so gaudy. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Glenna]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2006 8:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on $100,000 Balenciaga Leggings]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/11/15/100-000-balenciaga-leggings/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/11/15/100-000-balenciaga-leggings/</guid><description><![CDATA[This model looks like she was just rescued from Auschwitz!

If they can afford it and want it, then it's no one elses business. As for charities, guess who gives the MOST. That;s right, Corporations and wealthy people. How much did YOU spend on charities last year?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Liberty King]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2006 9:37AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on $100,000 Balenciaga Leggings]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/11/15/100-000-balenciaga-leggings/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/11/15/100-000-balenciaga-leggings/</guid><description><![CDATA[Can you imagine being so rich that you could afford $100k leggings??? I guess it's all in contrast, with my income I can afford $68 jeans at the Gap, and to a multi millionaire $100k may be the same to them as $68 is to me. I prob gave about $150 to charity this past year but a wealthy person prob gave way more...I hope.<br>ALTHOUGH I wear those jeans all the time, and they aren't ugly like those leggings which will prob only be worn once.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Michele]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2006 9:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on $100,000 Balenciaga Leggings]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2006/11/15/100-000-balenciaga-leggings/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2006/11/15/100-000-balenciaga-leggings/</guid><description><![CDATA[can we say ...the "spandex" look?

She was a woman who could have anything and everything she wanted, but yet used her fame to benefit those less fortunate.  I had forgotten all the wonderful things she did for people.

I can only hope that these will be worn to a charity event and then auctioned off someday for a good cause.  There are certainly vain excesses everywhere, just as there will always be a few very rich people who can afford them and want them.  But would a celebrity or socialite wait in line to see a fashion show with an average American woman (5'4" and 142 lbs) strutting down the runway in a $20 pair of Gap leggings?  If people would pay money to see that, then it would happen.  Laissez- faire and human nature and all that.  The only person anyone can truly change is themselves.  If you would give away most of your money to charity instead of spending it on excess, then, regardless of who else you may or may not have helped, you will have a much richer life. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[emma625]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 17th 2006 11:09AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
