LOVE | HATE.

Love it or hate it, Heidi Klum was still the most photographed celebrity at the Golden Globes because of her vintage Galanos dress. Every fashionista on the planet weighed in. So did every unfashionista. You decide.

Love her or hate her, Martha is a magnet. When she speaks, most of us listen, like it or not. Well, she loved this quilt. She said so. I heard her.

DOUBLE VISION Part Duex

(more on Katy Kane)

Only a little bit of what she has is on her site, so contact her if you’re looking for something special or particular or whatever. Work or play, she’s got you covered. She sells to celebrities, museums and even people like you and me! But her client list doesn’t matter — what matters is that she’s the go-to gal for vintage, and it’s not all designer. She also loads of not-designer things. And every single piece has to be in pristine condition to make it into her stock, so no worries there.

She’s a very nice Yankee, that Katy Kane. You’ll love her. I know you already love her name!

Oh, and word is she’s about to post some vintage Hermès, so you’d best be quick on the trigger for that one.

DOUBLE VISION.

And seeing double. But why? This is what I don’t get —- why everyone wants to wear the same thing as everyone else, so you constantly see yourself coming and going. Clearly I’m missing something in this regard. Just the same ol’, same ol’? What’s that all about?

Have also just never understood why you want to wear something that is both straight out of the fashion pages and thus so distinctive to a particular season. So the world knows how much you paid for it and then of course, because it absolutely SCREAMS what season it’s from, you dare not wear it the next. Yeah, I don’t get that, unless you’re a kazillionaire.

So here’s what I do: I wear vintage. Good vintage. I mean, really good vintage. I don’t want someone else’s distinctive style. I want my own, don’t you? I want to mix it up, sister.

I go straight to Katy Kane. And you should, too. It will definitely put a spring in your step and you’ll stand out from the crowd.
