The goal of the Jolina Bucket Tote was to create a bag where sculptural design coincides with everyday function. Roomy without feeling bulky, it’s built for those who carry a little extra—whether that’s notebooks, snacks, or larger electronics. But one of Jolina’s most-loved features is how its silhouette can subtly shift depending on how you wear or fill it. It can go from a wide-open, bucket-style carryall to a slimmer, more structured shape when less is inside, giving you a few different looks in one. With its clean silhouette and details, Jolina is an easy upgrade for anyone who wants elevated and stylish practicality. It’s especially loved by multitaskers and new moms alike, offering utility without compromising your cutest outfits!

Elevated Cozy Blackberry Tones 

This look leans into more romantic feminine with a touch of moody neutral autumn tones. The chocolate brown turtleneck top brings shape while the lighter mauve-toned silk skirt offers a bit more flow and outfit elevation with the fabric texture. Together, they form a tonal pairing that feels grounded but still interesting with both being different textures and silhouettes. The tan suede boots anchor the look by introducing another texture and tone that complements the taupe-gray of the bag, top and skirt.

Silhouette-wise, the pairing of a fitted top and flow-y midi skirt is universally flattering. It highlights the waist while giving movement through the fabric.

To adapt the formula, you could swap the silk skirt for tailored trousers or maybe corduroy pants to match the autumn vibe from the other piece. You can also trade the boots for pointed flats or a suede loafer. For colder days, add a beret or paperboy-cap and a leather jacket in a chocolate brown or one that matches your shoe choice. Jewelry can be dialed up or down depending on the event but rings and a statement earring are best as they accentuate your face while also not taking away from the turtleneck.

Rustic and Elevated Dark Tonal Outfit  

This look blends casual and elevated in a way that feels modern and editorial. The black peplum top adds structure while the wide-leg dark-wash jeans keep things more casual and wearable. The burgundy-striped sneakers and terracotta socks bring colorful elements to a mostly neutral base, tying in with the deep notes of the scarf.

The color palette stays minimalist and transitional: black, navy blue, and subtle fall tones like oxblood and rust create cohesion without overpowering. The Jolina Tote in Black keeps the look clean and architectural.

To personalize this formula, swap sneakers for square-toe boots or loafers, or replace the top with a boxy knit or turtleneck for colder weather. For a sporty version, swap the scarf for a baseball cap in a complimentary color.

To complete this look with the Jolina Tote by AALLYN in Black:

• Black peplum or structured sleeveless top

• Wide-leg dark-wash jeans

Tobacco

Cocktail Casual   

This outfit plays with contrasts: a silky slip dress brings a soft, almost lingerie-like sensuality, while the cardigan and black accessories add a more grounded, preppy vibe. The tobacco Jolina tote adds warmth since its caramel tone pops against the neutral cream and black palette without overpowering.

The color story here is classic: cream, black, and gold with a hint of warm tan. The tortoiseshell clips and black cat-eye sunglasses give it a retro touch, while the black sling-backs keep the look polished and classic.

To switch it up, try layering a white t-shirt or mock-neck top under the dress for colder months, or swap the cardigan for an oversized blazer or cropped jacket. You could also trade the sling-backs for boots or a block heel depending on the season and your personal style.

The Outfit Formula:

To complete this look with the Jolina Tote by AALLYN in Tobacco:

• Cream or ivory slip dress

• Black cardigan or layer

• Black pointed sling-backs

Olive

A Cool Olive Everyday Formula

This is a refined daytime look playing on hip textures, prints and silhouettes. The base of warm camel corduroy trousers and a fitted white long sleeve feels retro in the best way while staying clean, polished, and comfortable. The olive tote blends effortlessly into the look, reinforcing the earthy, natural palette without feeling heavy.

Color-wise, this look centers on warm neutrals, accented by touches of deep brown and cream in the accessories. The warm brown in the penny loafers keeps it tailored and a bit collegiate, while the silk scarf and slick bun in the reference add an old-money polish with the fun print and overall interesting color palette.

To tweak the formula, trade the top for a knit cardigan or cream blouse for a colder-months version. In warmer weather, go for a fitted tee or tank and switch to canvas or cotton pants. The loafers could also be swapped with a loafer heel to add a bit of height.

The Outfit Formula:

To complete this look with the Jolina Tote by AALLYN in Olive:

• White fitted long-sleeve or lightweight knit

• Camel or warm-toned corduroy trousers

• Brown or two-tone penny loafers
