First Le Tote Review

July 1, 2016

Le Tote is a monthly subscription service that provides you with a constantly rotating wardrobe, without having to spend a fortune on new clothes!  Like most other similar services, you complete a short style quiz, but you also search their inventory (like online shopping) to add items to your closet.  Your stylist will send you a proposed tote containing 3 pieces of clothing & 2 accessories.  I love that you get the chance to change out any pieces that just don’t work for you before your tote ships. You’ll never be surprised by what arrives!

Your monthly membership, only $59(!), gives you unlimited totes per month, so wear the pieces for as long or as little as you want, then send the tote back.  They’ll ship you a new one as soon as your old tote is sent back.  You get free shipping both ways, they handle the cleaning, & you can purchase any pieces that you can’t live without.  I got my first tote last week & had to share the great pieces that I got!  I was very impressed with how quickly the tote shipped & with the quality of the pieces.

Dress: Octavia, similar here, here, & here // Bag: Coach, similar here // Heels: Christian Louboutin, similar here // Watch: Kate Spade // Ring: Tiffany & Co, similar here

This dress was in my closet (the stylists try to always place pieces from your closet in your tote) & it is even more amazing than I expected.  The shirt-dress fit, with a cinched weight, is so comfy but also flattering.  I’ve worn it twice so far, once to a luncheon & once to work, & I’ve gotten so many compliments on it.  I paired it with simple black accessories to let the cheetah-inspired print shine, but I think that I may try it with some bright pinks this weekend.  This is the piece that I’m debating sending back or keeping.

Tee: Madewell // Skirt: Summer & Sage, similar here, here, & here // Bag: Ted Baker, similar here // Sandals: Manolo Blahnik, similar here & here // Bracelet: Clement, similar here // Watch: Kate Spade // Ring: Tiffany & Co, similar here

This skirt was also in my tote.  I have similar skirt (mine is shorter) so I probably won’t keep this one, but it’s been fun to wear.  I like the flattering midi-length for work.  My favorite tee kept it somewhat casual, in keeping with the cotton fabric.  It is stretchy & comfortable for all day at my desk.  I also received this bracelet from my list, which reminds me of the Tiffany & Co. T Bracelet that I’ve had my eye on, but for a fraction of the price.  I’m actually wearing it today with jeans & a white button down.

Top: Noir, similar here, here, here, & here// Jeans: AG, similar here // Heels: Nine West, similar here // Sunnies: BCBG, similar here // Bracelet: House of Harlow

The last item of clothing in my tote was this tank that reminds me of a Ted Baker print.  I love the soft, watercoloresque floral print.  It’s so pretty!  The length was perfect for jeans & it’s not too revealing for work.  Can you tell that I love pieces that I can wear for work & play?  The layered solid color, around the bottom, adds a little bit of interest to the hem.  A flowy tank, like this one, is a summer must-have!

My second accessories was this cute tweed crossbody bag.  I like the sparkly, tweed material.  Although the size is too small for everyday, it is ideal for girls’ night out or a dinner date.  Overall, I have been so pleased with my first tote & can’t wait to send these items back & get some new pieces!
