Wisdom Kaye, TikTok’s Best Dressed Star, Shares His Tips for Shopping Secondhand

The TikTok star dishes on his tips and tricks for scoring vintage goods online….

Below, Vogue asked Kaye his tips and tricks for scoring secondhand goods online—and what his favorite find of all time is. (Trust us, it’s good.)

1. What are your top 3 tips for successfully shopping secondhand online? 

Always inspect the item carefully in the pictures provided. Secondhand clothing can be worn, so you want to make sure that whatever you’re getting is at a level of wear that you’re comfortable with. Message your seller if you have questions! The cool part about secondhand is that you get to directly talk to the person selling an item that you’re interested in. So if you have questions of fit, wear, or price, you can inquire before you make your move. [Lastly], explore. Shopping secondhand gives you the ability to access pieces from so many different periods in time—there’s so much out there. Maybe you’re used to rocking ’80s style clothing, but don’t be afraid to look at pieces from the ’70s or ’60s too. Secondhand it gives you access to that and you might find different styles you didn’t know you liked. 

2. What is a common mistake to avoid when shopping secondhand? 

Not contacting your seller. Sometimes you might get an item and it doesn’t fit the way you expect. This can be avoided if you message your seller for said specifics, this way you know exactly what you’re getting. 

3. What has been exciting you about fashion in general lately?

I’m always very excited by bold silhouettes and patterns. I love when pieces look like actual art, something you could see in an installation at a museum.

4. What has been one of your favorite secondhand finds ever? 

My favorite secondhand find has to be the French 60mm Chelsea boot from the Saint Laurent fall 2015 collection. This is personally one of my favorite collections from Saint Laurent under Hedi Slimane, so being able to acquire something from this season is really cool. 

5. What trends or pieces will you be wearing this winter?

I’ll definitely be experimenting with new silhouettes this winter, and probably try to get into styling puffer jackets. It doesn’t really get too cold where I live, but I’m just gonna wear them anyway.

6. What do you think will be the next big TikTok trend? How do you see fashion evolving on the app?

Fashion on TikTok is controlled by the youth and there’s a primary focus on streetwear, loose/baggy silhouettes, and minimal color pallets. People on this side of fashion understand that they don’t need to pay a lot of money to achieve this style, which is why I think it’s so popular. As a result, a lot of people have been exposed to the concepts of thrifting and shopping secondhand. I think no matter what, affordability will always be the driving force. TikTok is primarily for young people, so not everyone has $1,000 to spend on a jacket, especially if they can get a similar one secondhand.

Adin Ross Blindsided by Kanye West’s Controversial Gift, A Swastika Shirt With His Name

HonkMagazine

Adin Ross is a well known streamer in the hip-hop community, famous for showcasing some of the biggest artists in the genre. He has hosted viral interviews and has helped amplify the work of music giants like Drake, earning a reputation as a connector between artists and their fans. However, things took a shocking turn with Kanye West, and the relationship may be irreparable. In the past, Ross has expressed his admiration for West and even tried to collaborate with him on his stream. Recently, West made a bizarre attempt to reach out to Ross by gifting him a custom t-shirt with a Swastika and Ross’s name. This left Ross, who is Jewish, feeling horrified and betrayed.

The awkward moment unfolded during a FaceTime call that Ross recorded and shared with his followers. What started as a friendly chat quickly turned shocking when West unveiled the offensive t-shirt. Ross was visibly stunned, exclaiming, “What the f*ck?!” as he processed what he had just seen. He paused the video and turned to his audience to express his disbelief. “He has a shirt with a Swastika with my name on it,” he said, clearly disappointed and in shock. His viewers reacted with outrage and support for Ross, flooding the chat with their messages.

Throughout the call, Ross tried to keep his cool and handled the situation carefully. He later explained that some fans might have expected him to confront West more aggressively, but he felt the entire situation was just too absurd. “I know y’all are gonna say I didn’t stand up to him,” he noted, emphasizing that his calm reaction didn’t mean he supported West’s actions. This incident is just another episode in Kanye West’s ongoing controversies, but for Adin Ross, it feels like a personal betrayal.
