The present work focuses on the structure of a double-layer of overscreened charged surfaces by smeared-out charges and probes the link between the structure of a double-layer and the bulk properties of an electrolyte with special view to the role of the Kirkwood crossover. Just as the Kirkwood line divides a bulk solution into a fluid with monotonic and oscillatory decaying correlations, it similarly separates charge inversion into two broad domains, with and without oscillating charge density profile. As initially oscillations may appear like a far-field occurrence, eventually they develop into a full fledged layering of a charge density.
