Golden Tote Review – March 2014

I find this company’s clothing as cheap… Poor material, I expected this due to the price.

How do the sizes run?? I fit the measurement for size 6 listed on their site perfectly. But I usually buy clothing in size medium. Golden tote says I’m a small. But I don’t like stuff to be to small or tight. What to do?

A quick question. Have any of you received something damaged and what was the outcome? My box has a lovely sweater that has four large holes across the front. I don’t want to send everything back because of a damaged item.

Oh Liz what have you done?!?! Im not sure how I arrived to this page about a month ago. I do know that you introduce me to GT and now Im in love! My tote arrived today and everything was lovely and fitted perfectly. Sadly, one of the items I picked (Edgy Lace Top) is stained. I really hope that they let me send it back without having to send the complete tote since the Eyelet dress its a dream come true.

LOVED my tote. I picked the navy Spring Midday dress (which I’m currently wearing – so cute) and the Easy Eyelet dress (the one thing I’m not so sold on). I also got the duck shirt and the same grey striped dress. Love them.

Oh my gosh I’m in love with my GT this month! Every single item was a winner! 🙂
I purchased the 149 tote….elephant dress and tunic dress. I added on the midday dress and my surprise items were better spit in something I would pick for myself with one item I automatically thought would put to the back of the closet but it actually grew on me and I’m now in love with that top too! I’m already anticipating next month. Of course I have you to thank for getting me hooked on golden tote. So thanks 🙂

OK I LOVED this entire tote!!! I need to try Golden Tote still

I’m wearing that cream sweater right now! I chose the denim jacket and midday dress and I’m in love with them both. I was a little bummed I didn’t get the duck print on my tee, but I still love the shirt (and every other item I got). I think what I’ve learned from Golden Tote is that complete strangers can dress me better than I can dress myself.

I LOVE the fact that I got enough freelance writing assignments this month to be able to splurge on a Golden Tote, albeit the $49 one. I have NEVER received one of these totes and been disappointed – it’s like they have closet-psychics on their staff!

I picked a cute mesh hoodie as my one item and also got the Porridge Shirt above — except with a blue and white chevron print – and a really lovely navy lace bralet/half-cami that worked perfectly under a business shirt and suit that I had to wear the next day. It also looks cute under V-neck sweaters.

My love affair with Golden Tote continues. One day maybe I’ll buy the $149 tote.

Am I the only one who is still processing?! I wanna get my tote but i dk when it ll come ?!

You’re so lucky! My tote was an awful experience. One item the wrong color, one item stained, one item was the wrong/different size that’s in my profile. I’ve reached out to customer service daily since, hoping they cared enough to rectify the situation, but they have not responded all week. I’m really annoyed and hope I don’t have to end up contesting the charge with my credit card company.

After stalking your reviews and then getting tempted by the spoilers, I got my first golden tote this month. Some of the bias cuts that they seem to favor are a little hard for shorter women, but overall I’m thrilled with everything I got.

Overall, your blog is making me a much poorer, but happier woman! 🙂

I had the $49 tote last time and thought it was just okay, but this time with the $149 tote I picked the elephant dress and the long-sleeved navy blue skies dress. I was online during the first hour and just received my bag today but I did snag the Porridge duck shirt and the same gray striped dress as you. I loved everything except one see-through sweater (which I’m swapping); even a black tank tunic I thought for sure was going to be really loose and ended up looking very nice. I really loved this month’s tote!

I picked the same two items as you. Everything in my bag was SO soft! I’m totally obsessed with the jacket– I’ve worn it everyday since. And I love the porridge shirt. It’s a little oversized, but the back is so cute that I don’t even care. I got the same Puella dress as well. Definitely see through on the top with a bright bra. I also got a long sleeved white and navy sweater and a tank similar to yours but with tan and black strips with some orange stitching. Definitely not a fan of the tank at all, but the rest of the bag was so spot on that I don’t even care. By far my new favorite subscription!! I can’t wait until next month 🙂

I ordered for the first time in March. I placed my order in the first hour too and my order is still processing 🙁 I really hope I get it before the April sales start
To know if I picked the correct size. The stripped shirt looks lovely I will be very happy if I receive that one in my tote!

I ordered my 149 tote during the first hour and my order is still processing 🙁 I hope I get my items before the April sale start so I can know if the size I picked was right. I totally love the stripe shirt!

I got my tote a week ago? (It’s been awhile.) I chose the $49 tote with the breezy top. For the extra items I got the porridge shirt with a blue and white zig zag pattern and a magenta bralet top.

Oh, also noticed that the changed the GT bag. The same gold design but the straps were different.

My picks were the denim jacket + chevron cardigan! My surprise items were great and I’m so happy with my first ever golden tote. 🙂 The photos of my surprise items are on my blog (hope it’s okay to mention it!). I would try to describe them but I’m not the best at describing clothing, haha.

The shipping frustrates me also. I ordered within the first hour and it didn’t ship until Tuesday. I’m kind of angry because it said the ones that order during the first week will have theirs shipped no later then the following Friday. I can’t wait to get mine though. It has a birthday present in it.

I have to wait till next week to get my daughters box! You received some super cute things too!

I got the $49 tote and picked the Not So Basic Button Down. I got a Porridge shirt with a different fabric (a pretty dark floral) and a purple lace bralette. Good tote!

I got my 1st Golden Tote and agree with you Liz, the clothes are soft!!! I got the $49 box, my choice Retro Chic dress in coral – I wore it to work and got tons of compliments. The two throw ins, same tshirt as yours but mine is floral pattern which I must say I like much better than the duck and then a beautiful lacy bralette which was way too small so I had to regift it. I wish they let you choice sizes for tops, bottoms, etc. I am xs but not in camis and bras. Still I love the two items and think they were well worth the price for quality softness and how beautiful they are. I’m going to a concert tonight and that grey tee with black pants will be perfect.

I am kicking myself for not getting the Golden Tote this month, and I do not want to order it now, because it’s too late in the month and all the good stuff has probably been sent out 🙁 Congrats on a FANTASTIC tote!!

My picks were the elephant dress and the white eyelet dress and I added the grey embellished sweatshirt. My surprise items were the porridge duck shirt, the same priddy dress, a white sweater similar to yours but with ruffle on the bottom, and a white sleeveless tunic from under skies which I’m currently swapping. I mostly love everything, however, I notice that the mediums tend to run large! All the tops seem way too loose and I’m thinking I should change my measurements to small next time. Is anyone else having this same issue? This was my first official tote and I think I’m obsessed as well.
