I'll be driving there since I'm close by and picking up violetpretty from the airport so my car will be available. I'm more apt to do things on my own than go to the free time activities. We can pile in my car and head out to do what we want. I drive a Camry so I can fit 3 more folks comfortable or get 4 people but the one in the middle seat will be a bit mushed.

OK, so just saw today's Virtual Violet & it says "white dresses"...no mention of white skirts/tops (which is what I normally wear for ritual.) Should I risk it or just try to afford a new white dress? I've got a white sweater I also wear, no matter if its the dress or skirt/shirt outfit.

Also, what about white sandals? I have sandals that sort of look like these, but with no heel, should they be closed toe shoes?

Those are perfectly fine. :) If you're unsure about skirt/top you could email HQ but I really don't think it'll be an issue.

Thanks for the advice! Maybe I'll send LO a quick mail just to be sure!

Ahhhhh! 16 more days. 15 til I fly!:D

In case anyone still needs one...I've been seeing white dresses at Target, Ross and Marshalls. :)

Thanks for the heads up! I might be buying a new one if I can afford it. :) As well as new white shoes-just for the heck of it! :)

Anyone decide on who they're going to dress up as for the red carpet? I don't think I will dress up, I can't even think of who I'd dress up like, nor do I have that much money to buy some new, fancy, outfit.

You would think this would be easy, but I think this is the hardest Confirmed Coventionite outfit to come up with that I've attended! I agree- unless you look exactly like someone, it is going to be difficult! We have 6 alumnae coming from our area- we are currently trying to think of some recognizable groups we could dress as. The Spice Girls is our current favorite, but there are only 5 of them! All else fails, I guess I'll just wear an old formal dress and just be myself on the red carpet! :)

Only if I get to be Posh!

I need to find a new dress. Mine is ugly beyond belief and is slowly fading from white so some god-awful off-white in some areas. Will be shopping today.
If you go to the For Sisters Only site, there is a link that shows you what clothing is appropriate (with picture samples) and what a white dress should look like (again, pictures included). It's very helpful.

I still have absolutely no idea what to dress up as for the Confirmed Conventionite dinner. Mike said I should go as Lucille Ball since I'm a HUGE I Love Lucy fan but I'd have to fork over money for a 50's dress and I'm already spending lots of money elsewhere.

I think if you can't find a celebrity outfit you should just dress GLAM. :)

I don't really have glam either, I just donated all the formal dresses I have to a charity called "Prom for a Princess". Bah, I'm getting down the whole celebrity outfit thing since I really don't have anything to wear & don't have money to buy anything.

I didn't find the link for the white dresses, but I checked w/ LO (who is slated for President!!!!) & she said the white skirt/blouse is OK. :)

I'm going to dress glam, I guess. I have lots of pretty dresses I have yet to wear that I bought on sale last year. I'll pick one of them & go all out with lots of blingy stuff and maybe I'll toss in a feather boa. LOL! ;)

I just bought this dress to replace my ugly old white one. What do you guys think? I'm a bit worried about the slit in the front. The dress is below my knee so it's not tasteless in the least but what do you guys think? Will it be o.k. or not? I bought it in white and should arrive later this week.

yay im totally going and I am so excited!
i really can not wait to meet sigma's from all over!

I think the dress is super appropriate Bebe! I'd only be worried about being cold without sleeves, the slit should be fine since its not wide open!
