Nope, not at all. Some of the more solid piece are ok, but I don't think they are anything special.

I don't know which SEC school you are attending, but at Auburn many of the actives wear white for pref. My daughter, as a PNM, wore a black dress last year with red pumps. She has been able to wear the same dress for some other sorority events, as well. (It is a pretty conservative dress, though.)

Re: Lily

On year, my chapter wore Lily or solid dresses in "Lily" like colors....yeah....I bought a bright turquoise(non-Lily) linen sundress. I'm not a fan of the Lily prints.

I think your outfits look great!

well, this florida girl loves lily p.

im not a big lily fan either. some of the dresses are nice, but I think the actual styles of the dress are pretty plain and the prints are just trying to cover up the lack of design in the cut of the dress. and i think you can find something much cuter for a heck of a lot less.

I was born and raised in Georgia (graduated from UGA) and I agree with you.

It's not my style. I get why people like it, but the traditional shift dress with bright print that I think of when I think of Lilly Pulitzer looks beyond horrible on me. I need things with a waist. They do make other cute clothes, but for $300 a dress I want something a little more original looking.

Are we seriously going to tell this girl not to wear the same shoes twice? Seriously?

If a group is THAT hung up on looks, I would RUN the other way.

I agree with everyone who thinks that 1. Lilly dresses are ugly, 2. They're too expensive, and 3. You can get something ten times better for much, much less.

I think wearing something different from what everyone else is wearing will set you apart, in a good way.

Well, considering they're going to be on their feet so much, it really is better to not wear the same shoes two days in a row, to let the shoes breathe. Mom33 told me so. :) Whether that's what Alumiyum was thinking or whether it was for the OMG DO NOT REPEAT reason, she would have to say.

Both. Y'all can roll your eyes all you want, but anyone who thinks this would go unnoticed isn't being truthful with themselves. Whether it would matter or not surely depends on the group. I seriously doubt on my campus (very laid back recruitment and not competitive) it would matter. But on more competitive campuses, it might.

I don't wear the same shoes two days in a row (and I mean shoes that actually go with an outfit, not running shoes or something) period. It's like wearing the same shirt two days in a row.

(And yes, I've had to run a PNM back to her dorm to change shoes because for some reason she didn't realize how bad her feet smelled...it was an awkward conversation, but better to sound like a bitch than to let her go to a party smelling like man feet. That's just as bad as showing up with horrible BO.)

That's a personal preference. We all have preferences that differ from those of others. :)

As for SEC recruitment outfit advice, I understand that people are watching what the young ladies are wearing because that's part of the first impression. I agree with 33girl about letting shoes breathe when you're walking and standing a lot. I just hope someone wouldn't be judged if they chose not to let their shoes breathe, as long as her feet and shoes don't stink.
