What Is Le Tote?
Le Tote is a business based in San Francisco that allows you to rent clothing from the comfort of your home. Upon signing up for an account, you get to build a profile. This profile includes your size, as well as choosing pictures of different styles and accessories you love.
You can then choose between receiving a boutique box for $49 or a jewelry box for $19 per month. Each boutique box contains three garments and two accessories. If you decide to go with the jewelry box, you will receive three selected pieces. A stylist then handpicks items for you, ships them free of charge, and within two days you will receive your tote in the mail.

What Makes It Unique?
Le Tote is unique because you have a stylist choosing clothes for you, completely taking the guesswork out of what to wear. It also offers you an element of surprise. You are never certain what the stylist will choose to send to you next, making each new tote seem like a gift. In addition, if you dislike anything they send you can return it immediately. However, if you fall in love with a garment, you can keep it as long as you like, or Le Tote will allow you to buy it at a 30%-50% discounted price.
Do You Need It?
Using Le Tote to rent clothing can save you money if you enjoy updating your wardrobe often. Each tote starts at approximately $16 and you are not obligated to keep anything that does not suit your needs. It is also very convenient as Le Tote does all the work for you. The styles are chosen for you and shipped free of charge to your home and return shipping is free as well. Le Tote also saves you time. Not only do you not have to leave your home to shop or spend hours browsing the web for clothing, but you do not have to worry about washing or dry cleaning the garments either.
