We Love: Karla's Closet

Thanks to Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, vintage clothing and accessories have seen a resurgence, and everything second-hand became wardrobe gems. Girls would raid their mothers' closets and flock to Salvation Armys and Goodwills for cheap and chic finds.

But one problem with this trend is that it's difficult to discern between fashionable and outdated. The key reminder here is: just because it's old, doesn't mean it's vintage.

One girl who gets it right all the time is Karla, who runs the blog aptly named Karla's Closet. Most of what she wears is second-hand or vintage, but she's always meticulous in putting together her outfits. Vintage dresses are complemented with in-season Prada heels, or sunglasses with modern shapes. She never looks like a blast from the past, but always like a worthy homage to fashion predecessors. And she is extra careful with the used clothing she selects; with a strict eye for quality and detail, the girl will never be caught dead in drab hand-me-downs.
