I don't think the lace dress would be appropriate for either of those rounds. The orange dress with the bow is cute-the bright color could be eye catching in the first round. i agree with Barbino, the "daisy" dress would be cute for Philanthropy round.
The double blue chevron-like dress could be construed as you trying to impress(or stalk) Kappa Kappa Gamma, so it might not be the wisest choice to wear until after rush is over. The color block is cute too and would be appropriate for 1st round.
As in most southern recruitments, you get a bit more dressy as rush week progresses.

Okay, thanks so much! I didn't know about KKG, so I'm glad you warned me! I was a little iffy on the lace one too.

The double-blue dress to me was too casual (the write-up on it talks about wearing it over a swimsuit). I didn't even think about Kappa (lol). I also liked the orange one with a bow; I just liked the other two better. The lace one is cute-love the color- but it is strapless so unless you wear a cardigan or something over it, it could be difficult to wear. It's going to be hot, so you need something sleeveless & cool. Cool=comfortable. Think about comfort. These are going to be long days and you don't want to get too hot.

Thank you everyone for all of the advice. Like I said in the OP, I have 3 of the 4 day's outfits planned out. Here is an idea for the 3rd day- Sisterhood. I want to wear a nicer sundress/summer dress in coral. I currently have the J. Crew necklace shown below (in turquoise) and it always looks so pretty with coral. I just can't seem to find a flattering dress in coral that isn't too dressy or too casual. Any help?

By the way, this is the layout of my schools recruitment week:

Day 1- Open house (sundresses and sandals)
Day 2- Philanthropy (official recruitment shirt and shorts)
Day 3- Sisterhood (nicer sundresses and heels)
Day 4- Preference (casual cocktail i.e. nice dresses and heels)

Ditto. And the daisy print dress is adorable!

That last dress from ModCloth that the other PNM posted would go well with your tourquise necklace and is probably the right amount of dressy/casual.

Do you think it would be too much going on with the necklace I have pictured?

Wow! Thank you! I love the ones form Piperlime!

No problem! I love shopping for people, and work is boring :)

Also, coral and turquoise is one of my favorite color combinations ever.

FLgirl24 07-18-2012 02:00 PM

Ok, after happilyanchored's help (thanks again!) I found another dress I like for Sisterhood Day. Thoughts?

Well a lot of girls wear strapless at UGA rush, and I don't think the dress is super sexy looking so it wouldn't be a big deal or anything, but I was still worried it wouldn't be *quite* right for the occasion.

I can't really tell, because of the background, and the fact my computer sucks-- but it looks like the necklace is silver and the earrings are gold. I'm old school... and hate mixed metals if there isn't a piece that brings both metals together. (Like I said, Old School!) The necklace stands out so nicely, that I'm not sure you'd even need earrings with this.
