Online Greek Stores
 
what are your favorite online greek stores and why?

Or do you totally avoid online greek stores?

Drolefille 06-27-2006 04:57 PM

I liked sororityspecialties.com I've only used them once but they had a premade stole in stock and I could get it in time for graduation. Came exactly as ordered!

Other than that I haven't ordered much online greek-wise.

Umm...the model has a side-pony tail, and that's the most fashionable thing about her. Enough said.

kddani 07-21-2006 01:48 PM

I guess there's a market for flash-dance and 80's inspired greek clothing that I didn't know about...

IMO, some of that stuff on that site is tacky/ugly.

tunatartare 07-21-2006 01:49 PM

I found that site last week and thought it was almost a joke. The puffy flower tees and the weird sweatshirts are tacky. I like the paper doll tees though. They're cute.

ETA: my personal favorite is that the site claims to be "the pinnacle of sorority fashion."

But dani - the nickname is appliqued with LOVE.

Did anyone else noticed that ZTA and ZPhiB are the exact same thing??

Did you take a look at the pants? If you haven't, you really should.

ETA: I just read the "About Us" section. "OXFORD CIRCUS has created a line of subtly Greek tops and bottoms with a vintage urban feel." First of all, I don't think a big fabric flower on your side is really all that subtle. Second of all, the only "urban" place this line would fit in would be the 1980's New York in "Fame".

tunatartare 07-21-2006 01:52 PM

Oh I did. They left me in tears. I was that upset that they don't make them for locals.

Maybe you could email them a special order...

Drolefille 07-21-2006 02:32 PM

I think anyone could cut out some letters and stick them to the sides of one of those puffy flowers...

They look like a 5 year old did some of the cutting....

/Safety scissors!

$24 for a shirt that someone Puffy Painted!!

tunatartare 07-21-2006 02:38 PM

is that puffy paint or embroidery?

kddani 07-21-2006 02:38 PM

What's somewhat upsetting is that this company is actually LICENSED through greek licensing.

Oh well, at least they don't sell puffy painted sorority thongs. Yet.

Hey, they could always Bedazzle them!

And at least they used a stencil for their puffy paint...

.. ok that doesn't make me feel better.

Bedazzeled thongs sound...um...painful to me...

kddani 07-21-2006 02:55 PM

The description says embroidery. I still say tacky...

That puffy flower thing is hideous. They have them on sweatpants, too. It looks like an elementary school art project.

Ok, I've decided this shirt is nothing more than " HEY LOOK AT MY BOOB IT'S GOT A HEART ON IT!"

Those are supposed to be LADYBUGS? :eek:

I thought they were... ornaments or something...

Drolefille 07-21-2006 03:28 PM

Ok, and I'm posting again, sue me:

this: hoodie

is the LEAST sucky thing I've seen on there...

Drolefille 07-21-2006 03:31 PM

Must be totally punk yet AWESOME Sigma Kappa

It looks weird on, and the color combos are strange. No thanks

I noticed that they called it a dove...but I really thought they were trying for a penguin before I read the discription.

Oh yes, still sucky, just less than the puffy flowers from hell

and alphafrog, couldn't you tell it's a dove because of the olive branch? I mean, don't all doves carry those around all day to tell themselves apart from penguins?

Alpha Sig Scott 07-22-2006 04:50 PM

Get a load of those hideous bell bottom pants with the flowers:eek:

I don't think Marsha, Jan or Cindy would even wear those.

jadis96 07-23-2006 09:34 PM

http://store.oxfordcircusclothing.com/crostripetee.html this shirt isn't bad, but it doesn't look much like a sorority shirt to me. I am not sure any other sororities use skull and bones besides Sigma?

It's on our (KD) crest, but it's not something we ever use as a symbol or anything. If I saw someone in that shirt i'd think they had pirate aspirations.

We use skull and crossbones, but I that shirt seems a little to pirate to me too.

I believe Chi Omega has a s&c on their badge on the left-hand side.

Greekopedia 07-27-2006 01:24 PM

I just went through the posts, haha.

So what if shirts were more fashionable with your letters on it? Maybe like styles from Gap, Limited, Express, Urban Outfitters... etc.

This is what im gearing towards.

Oh I think having some fashionable sorority clothes would be great, I am just not sure I want something that looks like a middle schooler would wear it like some of these did.

On that note, some of the Victoria's Secret "Pink" stuff this season has some sorority themes to it. If they made hoodies with my letters that were as soft as some of VS's stuff I would buy it.

Greekopedia, if you make it in modal.. they will come. And feel how soft it is...

socialite2020 08-10-2006 02:57 AM

I find some of the coolest stuff on ebay.

Drolefille 08-11-2006 06:16 PM

Not until I put all of this person's posts together did I figure out the weirdness...

I suspect that someone is actually the lister of the products s/he pimps

WhiteDaisy128 09-23-2006 05:38 PM

I love how the NPHC sorority gear is modeled by a white chick.
