A MODest Closet

Most women can’t afford authentic vintage clothing and jewelry. But ModCloth, a Pittsburgh-based e-commerce site, can get you pretty close. Launched in 2002 by now-husband-and-wife team Eric Koger and Susan Gregg-Koger, ModCloth carries brands such as Jeffrey Campbell and BB Dakota.

ModCloth has made a humble arrival in the online-retail industry and hasn’t been overlooked. Team Koger was featured on Inc. Magazine’s 30 Under 30: America’s Coolest Young Entrepreneurs list in 2009, and the company was ranked No. 2 on the magazine’s Inc. 500 list the following year.

Naturally, Susan has an eclectic collection of clothing. In a “show and tell” for the retailer’s blog, she shares her favorite pair of Jeffrey Campbell shoes. Although the shoes are hidden in the shadows of her closet, we like that each shelf pulls out to reveal two rows. It lacks optimal light but saves a lot of space.

Susan’s jewelry display on top of her chest of drawers is simple and sweet. There’s enough room to easily access bangles and broaches, and the hooks for hanging necklaces clears any clutter—not to mention they prevent your necklaces from getting tangled!

“There are no right answers; there are no rules,” Susan says of fashion.

“Your fashion taste and your fashion sense doesn’t necessarily just have to reflect [one] aspect of your personality.”

We couldn’t agree more. Your closet is your own space; make it comfortable and unique. From her rotating closet carousel to her trendy flair, we like how Susan transformed her modest closet.
