I like the eyelet bomber jacket! If I had to guess, though, I would say that it is little bits of the bomber jacket all over the black sweater in the last of those pictures. I like the plaid blazer, as well. The thing is, I have a pear-shaped body and I know what looks good on me. I am still too nervous about what the mystery items would be. Do they honor requests like : please no bottoms and absolutely no straitjackets? I know some people probably like surprise items, but I would be more likely to purchase from GT if they used a Julep-like fully customizable option.

Maybe they have been putting their best efforts towards the Puella tote and they should go back to one release a month. I haven’t bought a tote in months and there a too many options popping up now that are more affordable and fashionably relevant.

I have been obsessed with Golden Tote since discovering it in February and have ordered at least one tote every month since. Sadly I think I will be skipping this time. The only thing that I like is the sailor sweater and it is similar to other things I already own. I really hate to say this because I do love GT, but the last few months it looks like they have been picking stuff out of a trunk of clothes left over from the 90’s! Hopefully mid-month will be better.

Its probably all the over stock from tj max and Marshall’s from the 90s.

I used to love GT and bought 1 or 2 large totes monthly, but it seems like it’s really gone down hill. I haven’t seen anything in months that’s tempted me enough to buy a tote. And it seems like they’re back to using stick-thin models with no curves. That implies nothing about the model–I’m not trying to body shame. It just seemed like GT at least tried to reach a diverse group of body shapes there for a while and now it doesn’t. Maybe I’m wrong there and the clothes are more forgiving than they look, just saying that as a curvier person looking at the promo pics from the last few months.

I like to see different shapes in clothing as well. While I don’t have a lot of curves personally (didn’t get nuffin from my mama lol) I do prefer to spend my money where models are more body inclusive. No body shaming at all. I just felt GT was awesome to have different models

I don’t know where they’ve been getting their inspiration from lately, but they need to look somewhere alse… maybe I’ve outgrown GT. :-\ Both the lace up cardigan and the frumpy, shapeless black dress are awful.

Hi Liz, thank you for the awesome sneak peeks into boxes (:
I ADORE the red poncho, but I can’t find it on their site. Do you know if I’d be able to purchase just the poncho without a subscription?

Reply ButtonReply

Gina

Golden Tote isn’t a subscription. You just buy totes whenever you want. It’ll appear on the site when the tote is released on Monday. You can purchase the poncho 3 different ways: 1. as part of the $149 tote, where you pick it and one other item (from above, plus usually some past items) and get three surprises, 2. as an addon to the $149 tote for a reduced price (pick two, add poncho, get three surprises), or 3. at boutique price, which is full price plus shipping if your cart total is less than $149.

Or form the boutique as an add on from the $49 tote.

Umh!! What is up with that sweather in that forth picture of Eyelet Bomber Jacket? Why is it dirty with lint? That’s not how you sell a product!

Sarah

Gross, I don’t know how I didn’t notice that at first! There’s a spot at the bottom on the back of the yellow V neck top too. my last tote (a surprise tote) was awful and didn’t follow my profile. They usually fix issues like that but there none of the 3 items were remotely worth keeping. Not thrilled I have to pay to send back their mistake.

That got me too! A lot of the clothes look a little ill-fitting on the model too. I’ve been over GT for quite some time, but I still peek at the styles every month. This month’s options are so not for me.
