Yeah convention in Philly really and truly was off the motha freakin chain. I had a serious blast, and meeting the GC sorors OMG was straight up icing on the damn cake:p

Ahhhhh! I really wish I was there. I will be in my crimson & cream in 2008! I want to see pics. You can send them to my e-mail.

I know you are. :D I had told my one LS but forgot to tell the other one because she's so hard to track down. Well, when we checked in I kept saying Carla should be here any minute. She was like oh how do you know here. I said well actually this will be my first time meeting her in person. :eek: Ha, the look on her face was priceless!!! But in the end, she was cool. Oh and Kim, she loved it when you said "broads". She said she liked your Philly accent when you said it.

Sorority came, wore red, and shopped with a fever at Macy's
 
Sorority came, wore red, and shopped with a fever at Macy's

Philadelphia Business Journal - August 4, 2006

When the convention of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority came to town, people took notice.

For one thing, with 16,000 attendees dressed in red attire, they could be spotted throughout Philadelphia from July 31 to Aug. 3.

Macy's also took notice.

The department store, which opened in the former Lord & Taylor store on Aug. 2, arranged a special private opening just for the Deltas on July 29.

In four hours, some 5,000 Deltas scouted the aisles and scoured the racks. In the shoe department alone, they spent $40,000. In total, they spent $150,000.

Macy's responded by extending the private access two more days.

Overall, the Delta Sigma Theta annual meeting had a $20 million economic impact on Philadelphia, according to the Philadelphia Convention & Visitors Bureau.

This mayhem is why I avoided Macy's during Convention. My linesister insisted on walking to Macy's by herself and shopping. Came back with one of those free red bags with all the freebies inside. Secondhand freebies are good enough for me. :)

I thought the lady's suit was pink also. I guess it just look that way on the picture. I was like, why was a Delta wearing pink at their convention? lol

The mauve thing is a running gag in my chapter. I guess it's a "Delta thang." :D

I am more surprised that you didn't recognize "the lady." I mean she can wear any color she damn well pleases.

But btw, in person it was lilac/lavendar.

Right! :D

For everyone else, Soror Height tends to wear purple shades rather than our typical red and white. Purple also is a signficant color to DST.

Dionysus 09-27-2006 10:05 AM

I was only making an observation (which happened to be wrong). I wasn't trying to be rude or anything. I apologize if I offended anyone.
