# QampA with Katy Rodriguez ...

As co-owner of popular vintage boutique _Resurrection Vintage_, Katy Rodriguez has acquired a loyal fan base of vintage lovers everywhere. Since its conception in 1996 in New York city and with another store in L.A, the boutique has become the “go-to” for many of her admirers eager to purchase an amazing find.

Last year saw Katy branch out as a designer with the debut of her Criss Cross dress, followed up with a presentation at N.Y fashion week. Her designs proved to be a hit! And gained her a number of celebrity followers. We caught up with Katy just in time for the holidays….

**My friends would describe me as?**  You must ask them, I cannot answer for them.

**The hardest aspect of running Resurrection Vintage is?** Time. There is never enough time to do all the things we would like. I think my business partner and I suffer from this.

**I started designing because?** I love clothes and I love the creative process. I studied art but turned to clothes because they live through the person that wears them. I was bored with flat art on the wall.

**Last film I watched?** Monster in Law. It was on TV while I was sick. It was horrible! I do like watching Jane Fonda though.

**Top shopping tip for vintage lovers?** Buy what you love and buy it when you see it. You will often miss out if you wait!

**All I want for Christmas?** My health

**Blogs I read?** [Style.com](https://goo.gl/Rkqp5d), _Cory Kennedy_ and [Perez](https://perezhilton.com/) of course!

**Magazines I love?** Any vintage fashion magazines. Details from the 1980’s is my absolute favourite. New magazines I like, and Surfers Journal are good too.

**N.Y Fashion Week is… **There are no words to describe it, at least not here.

**Favourite holiday destination?** Mal Pais, Costa Rica

**Last time I cried?** Last night. I watched the final episode of The Contender. The fight was brutal and gruelling. IT was a young guy against a very powerful man. The young guy gave it his best and hung in for about eight rounds. He started to a real beating. Those scary moments before the ref called the fight were very upsetting. "The agony of defeat" gets me every time.

**Best piece of advice I’ve ever been given?** Your house should never look like a hotel. A mentor of mine told me that when I was seven years old. I’ve tried to live by it.
