Yesterday I spent the day running around town with my boyfriend in a wool double-breasted 60s dress I found at one of my all-time favorite vintage shops. It was kind of chilly yesterday (well, fifty degrees is freezing for us Californians) so I layered it over a denim shirt and American Apparel tights. I also wore some of my favorite shoes by Balenciaga, a necklace from India, and a patent leather Jenny Yuen clutch.
Mondays are usually the crappiest day of the week but I hope everyone is having a good day so far!

Love the layering! You have a unique ability to layer your outfits perfectly. That was a great idea to put the collar over the necklace! So interesting!

Ciao Karla,
Again, quite the unexpected combination with the denim shirt, under the double-breasted vest, but with the addition of that beautiful Indian necklace - It WORKS! ☆ Well.... the Balenciaga shoes do help... :-)

I can tell that streetstyle-bloggers are an inspiration to you. There is nothing ''original'' about this outfit. I've seen many pictures of a necklace under a collar. What are these people talking about?
Though you did a good job. It's not over the top.
I absolutely love your shoes!!

What a fabulous combination, I’m almost speechless: to wear a gorgeous jeans blouse with a simple black dress, what a great idea. The cut and the color of that jeans blouse is just amazing. The black heels and the clutch are the perfect accessories for this look; but of course that gold necklace is the real eye cather. You have so many different looks, but you are always so stylish.
Really like the composition of your outfit! I've been looking for a necklace like yours
I love your shoes, as always. And I really like the way the collar of the jean shirt looks over the necklace-- great idea!
Also, I live in norcal, but our weather is often really similar. Lately it's been so cold here that it snowed twice in as many weeks. We never get snow! Super weird.
So, I feel your pain.
Love the whole outfit, especially the necklace!

I can imagine your Monday being crappy. With that unfortunate face and all. It's crooked. It shows so ugly in the second shot. No wonder you never show your other side of the face.
i agree with Mondays being crappy :(
thanks God they are short days or at least this is what i imagine :)
that's so cool! i love how you put it together :D
your layering is divine, and the denim shirt...don't get me started. i am having a terrible finding a thrifted one without a logo printed somewhere on the front.
thanks for the inspiration, i will continue my hunt!

Digging the combination, as usual. JEEZE KARLA, do you even have to TRY? Should be Karla's Magic Powers, instead of Karla's closet. You need made skills to replicate your get-ups. WERK.
Can I ask you your opinion about this pair of rings? I like it but i'm not sure and i don't want waste my money. Sorry 4 my english, I'm not american :-)

I like the little black dress that you're wearing. it looks a little bit like a wooltrench coat, and the sleeves are cut off.
the combination with the blue jeans blouse is not my thing.

This is a-maz-zing. Who would've ever thought to put together denim with a shift dress... and where did that metallic necklace come from? Is it part of the dress? In short, you are genius.
Great style! and come to visit me, I'm back!
