Golden Tote Review-$49 Tote
Golden Tote is a monthly (non-renewing) clothing subscription. At the beginning of each month they will launch their sale. and you can either choose the $49 tote (as I have) or the $149 tote. With the $49 tote you get to pick out one item of your choice and they will surprise you with one or two more items. The Value of the tote being up to $200. The $149 tote lets you choose 2 items of your liking and again they will surprise you with 4-5 more items. The value being able to be up to $600!!! Shipping is $7.95 for both totes. AK and HI are $15 and international is $25. The type of clothing and brand found in the totes are what you would see at an Antropologie store. For more info click here and here.
This dress is made by Hourglass Lilly. If you are signed up for Golden Tote you are able to purchase this dress for $30. But it retails for $48. This lovely dress was the item I picked out. It is super soft and so comfy. You can't really tell in the pic but it is navy blue. I'm 4'10" and this dress hits me just above my knee. I can't say enough great things about this dress. I absolutely love it. Oh it is USA made as well. So that's always a nice bonus.
I was really happy to see this in the bag. I really didn't expect to get it since I thought it was only going to be available to the first 1000 totes. I just ordered my tote about a week ago. But I'm so happy I got it. I LOVE quirky/crazy prints. And this top is just up my alley. It is so soft as well. Almost like a jersey feel. It's a very loose and flowy(?) top. Great for those jeans and tshirt type of days. I wasn't able to find this exact top anywhere to be able to give you a set price. But they do sell the brand (Porridge) on Antropologie's website. And seeing what was available and how it was priced I would guess this top to retail at or about $68. If I am incorrect please do tell me. This top is also USA made.
I wouldn't say that I don't like this I just wasn't expecting something like this. It's a teal bralette or soft bra. I won't be using it as such. More like a cami for my v-neck tops. I'm not "blessed" enough to be able to wear alone. So I'm going to continue to let Victoria keep my secrets. I tried to look up the brand (Flawless) but wasn't able to find it anywhere. So I'm guesstimating the value to be around $10.
Overall I would have to say my first Golden Tote experience was a success. I really love the dress I picked and the top that was chosen for me. For basically $57 I received about $125 worth of clothing items. And for as often as I am planning to wear them, I would say it was definitely worth the $57.
**** If you do not like something in our tote you have to return the whole bag. It's an all or nothing deal. You can't pick and choose with this one.
