Break out those wallets because it's time to shop like a celebrity in honor of a worthy cause. 

The time has arrived for Goop's annual Celebrity Closet Sale, through which Gwyneth Paltrow and co. offer us mere mortals the opportunity to raid famous wardrobes and donate to charity all in one fell swoop.

This year's notable names? Along with Paltrow, Lena Dunham, Drew Barrymore, Anne Hathaway, Jill Kargman and Rachel Zoe have all contributed a handful of sentimental—and stylish—pieces that have walked red carpets, been handed down straight from the designer and even saw one Oscar winner through her first pregnancy. 

The items range from designer cocktail dresses and evening clutches to graphic t-shirts and pink sneakers, so there truly is an item fit for every type of fashion-inclined buyer. Plus, one lucky shopper (and Iron Man enthusiast) will inherit a pair of sexy heels Paltrow donned as Pepper Potts in Iron Man 3.

As done previously, proceeds of this year's sale will go toward two charities, DonorsChoose, an organization dedicated to assisting under-funded teachers and students in public schools, and Children's Rights, aimed at protecting abused and neglected children. 

Since there are nearly 50 pieces on sale now, we decided to assemble a few outfits made up of the available items to give you an idea of just how perfectly they'll fit into your everyday life—whether you're calling shots in the office, out on the town with your sweetheart or indulging in a Sunday brunch.

For the Chic Executive Officer: Every lady needs a sophisticated, seamless go-to outfit for the office whether rain or shine, snow or heat. With Dunham's Miu Miu floral merlot blouse, Kargman's H&M flounce skirt and Hathaway's cranberry Prada pumps, this is a look that can be repeated throughout the seasons with the addition of a blazer, sweater or tights. Grabbing drinks with coworkers later? Leave the extra layer at home, throw on a pair of statement earrings and you're ready for a cocktail and a good gossip session.

For the Weekend Round of Errands: We all know Saturday afternoon is designated for picking up groceries, grabbing your dry cleaning, doing laundry and scouting out a new outfit for an evening of festivities. Why not switch out the typical athleisure look for an easy outfit befitting of a Vogue spread? Throw on Paltrow's Alice + Olivia white dress and Dunham's Manolo Blahnik black and white flats for comfortable walking. To keep hands free, drape Hathaway's Givenchy leather bag over your shoulder and get things done.

For Real Life Saturday Night Fever: Nothing says head turner like a curve-hugging jumpsuit. When that truly special night on the town arrives, zip yourself into Paltrow's navy Galvan plunging one piece and store your cell phone, lip gloss and credit card in Meyer's satin navy Prada clutch. Now, there's only one thing left to do: taxi!
