Golden Tote.

No doubt you’ve all heard of the various styling services there are these days but perhaps you’re not familiar with this one yet (I wasn’t!)?  Golden Tote!  At Golden Tote, you fill out a style profile (which I actually found fun.  A chance to talk about me and what I like to wear?!  Sign me up!) and on the first Monday of every month, new totes go on sale.  It’s $49 for 2-3 clothing items and $149 for 5-6 clothing items.  (Retail value up to $200 and $600, respectively.)  You choose 1-2 definite items to go into your tote and they surprise you with the rest based on your style profile.  It’s pretty reasonable–50% off retail value so every item ends up costing roughly $26.

You can add other “must-haves” to your tote before checking out at a discounted rate, too.  Below, I ended up wearing one of my definites: the pineapple sweatshirt (duh) and a surprise item (the polka dots!).  And I also received all the stuff you see above!  An awesome wrap skirt that would look great with wedges, a drapey cardigan sweater to throw over a white tank top, a breezy summer embroidered shirt, and more.  Now, on the off chance you don’t like your tote, you can return it in its entirety OR you can do trades on the Golden Tote Trading Facebook page.  That way you can keep what you like and swap out what you don’t. 

For the first outfit, I went a little… playful?  Is that what we’re calling it?  A bandeau skirt, hat, and converse rounds out the polka dots, does it not?  I even brought out my “I think I’m better than you” face for these pictures (I’m sorry.  I don’t know why my face does that.).  Let’s move on.

For the second outfit, I went a smidgen more casual (caj) and let Anders sit in on the action.  Cropped boyfriend jeans, Vans, and a pineapple top and we are ready to go.  Go where?  Not sure.  But when I find out, I’ll be ready.

Do you hate shopping?  Too busy?  Do you love these style-for-you sites?  Or are you too picky? 

Check out Golden Tote and I think you’ll be pleased.  You can see their past totes on the site too if you want a better feel for it.  Tell me what you think!
