How do you wear your letters everyday?
 
I wear a gold necklice with my letters every day, because my pledge pin clasp is to small to mess with every day. (And I hate holes in my cloths!)

I will wear my pledge pin on my garter on the day of my wedding.

I have my letters on a homemade keychain.

I have a charm bracelet with my chapter letters I wear when I'm in the mood.

AlphaFrog 05-22-2007 12:15 PM

I use my small ASA tote for my work stuff.

I sometimes wear my lavalier.

I have a crest sticker on my car.

I do occasionally wear regular letters.

banditone 05-22-2007 12:22 PM

Yes, in tattoo form. I was a goofy youngster.

ΑΓΔSquirrel10 05-22-2007 12:23 PM

I have an Alpha Gam license plate frame on the back of my car, and I have a (really cute!) Alpha Gam bumper sticker.

I will sometimes sleep in one of my t-shirts that I got.

AZ-AlphaXi 05-22-2007 12:35 PM

I have a licence plate holder with Alpha Xi Delta on it.

I have letters on my key chain

I wear (daily) my quill ring that I got as a present from my husband.

I also have a mouse pad at work with my letters

flirt5721 05-22-2007 12:40 PM

I have a key chain and I wear my shirts with the letters a lot, my lavalier at least once a week, and my flip flops.

I also have a licence plate but it not on my car I have it hanging on my wall (doesn't match).

Sticker on the back of my car...that's about it except for jersey day. Both my keychains have broken (I'm hard on my keys), and because we can't drink (and aren't supposed to be around drinking) in letters, can't cuss, can't smoke, etc. I don't wear my lavaliere that much. Not that I'm constantly doing all of those things, but I do smoke (I'm an on and off not-committed quitter) and I do have an issue with what comes out of my mouth (there's nothing in between my head and my mouth that says "Hey...think before you speak"), and I hang out with the guys a lot...most of whom have no hobby except to drink beer. So to avoid all the these things I just don't wear letters a lot of the time, because guaranteed I will (and have) forgotten to take them off first (and I don't really believe covering them up counts...that's not the point. They gotta be off.) Plus I have my boyfriend's lavaliere and I find it weird to wear them together on the same chain so...I dunno. And I only buy a t-shirt a semester which puts me at 4, currently...so through the rotation of my 4324324322 t-shirts I don't often wear them.


But I often have red, buff, and green stuff all over the place. My iPod cover, a few bracelets, some of my school stuff, ribbons on one of my purses. Also have two totes that I sometimes use.

When I initiated, my parents gave me a watch that has KD engraved on the back. I have worn that watch just about every day since my initiation. So, while I essentially wear letters everyday, you'd have to take my watch off and look on the back to know it.

33girl 05-22-2007 01:54 PM

They're on my college ring and my oh so politically incorrect bottle opener keychain.

JonInKC 05-22-2007 02:42 PM

I shave the letters on my chest hair.

Good thing your letters are all made up of straigt lines. I bet doing an Upsilon or Omega would be a pain in the ass.;)

CuriousWildcat 05-22-2007 04:14 PM

I have an SAI tote bag that I carry around most days. I also have several shirts. I plan on getting a lavalier.

jaade124 05-22-2007 04:25 PM

I have tons of sweatshirts and I wear them pretty much every day. I also have a jacket that I wore almost every day. Don't know what I'm going to do now that I'll be in a workplace environment hah. I'll have to get a bag or something.

KSUViolet06 05-22-2007 04:32 PM

I have a sticker in my car window.

My car/house keys are on a Sigma keychain.

I also have tons of screen printed tee shirts from Sigma events that I wear all the time when I'm jogging or running errands.

susan314 05-22-2007 04:34 PM

I have my letters on my keychain.

Don't wear them on apparel too often anymore. Though I did find my windbreaker in the back of the closet a few weeks ago - wore it to our softball game this past weekend b/c it was a little chilly out.

I'd love to find a visor I like with my letters on it - need to purchase a visor to wear for softball (serve the dual purpose of keeping both my hair and the sun out of my eyes). Figure if I'm going to buy a visor anyhow, might as well be a lettered one. Haven't seen one online that appeals to me yet though.

AlexMack 05-22-2007 04:52 PM

The sticker in my rear window of my car is as close as I come to wearing the letters everyday. I do need to get some new letters, my hoodies are both completely worn out and I just don't like the colours of my letter t-shirt (pink t-shirt, orange with yellow border letters).
I also need more money before I get more letters. I used to wear my lavalier everyday but the chain I was using broke and I never got it fixed.

Doesn't greekgear do a visor?

Yes - I saw the ones there. I was hoping to find one with Greek letters not in an oval. If I don't see one like that anywhere, I might consider getting one of the ones on greekgear that have the letters spelled out.

I also saw some on another site where you could get the Greek letters, but if I recally correctly you could only get the visor in blue. I'm sort of a traditionalist, so not sure how I'd feel about a blue and white AGD visor...

(Maybe I need to stop being so darn picky...) ;)

SWTXBelle 05-22-2007 06:25 PM

I have a badge ring ordered - hasn't come yet.
I have a crest and letters on my rear windshield. I have the new logo (about 10" by 14") on my rear liftgate - along with about the same size "Speak Up For Sororities" logo with all 26 NPC groups letters circling it (but they got Theta's wrong - it says Kappa Theta Alpha, and I didn't notice it for months!)
I carry a black tote with pink letters.
Gamma Phi Beta license plate frames.
That's it. :)

Have you considered having one made? I know the store where my mom works does hats/visors and stuff like that. Pick up a cheap visor you like then they should be able to put whatever you like on there in whatever color you want. As I remember it's relatively inexpensive. Just a thought :)

You can go to any imprint shop or place that does embroidery, buy a visor and they can emnroider your letters on it. They have the font for greek letters. I just got a cute little hat that is khaki with my letters in Maroon. Was only $20.

rufio 05-22-2007 07:17 PM

my colony pin i wear as an earring, i have a livestrong style bracelet that i got from HQ, a DU hat i usually wear and DU banner on the back winshield of my car.

guardedbystars 05-22-2007 08:25 PM

I wear my lavaliere everyday. I also have a letter tote, but I don't always have it.

PrettyBoy 05-22-2007 09:52 PM

I have some really nice perry, but I don't wear it too often. Only for special events. I have a ring I wear daily, and I wear a KAY baseball hat once in a blue moon. I have a frame around my plate on the back of my car, and a Kane in the window. That's pretty much it.

Scandia 05-22-2007 09:55 PM

I have two T-shirts with letters that I wear when the weather and occassion permit it.

I have the rearview mirror paddle too. I also have a plate but haven't put it on the car yet (I am only "three weeks" old).

I also have a gorgeous platinum charm with the letters that I got as a neophyte gift and I wear that on my chain now.

"Less is more" right? :-)

KAPital PHINUst 05-22-2007 11:17 PM

Kappa bumper sticker on rear bumper, Kappa kanes in rear window, Kappa dogtags on rearview mirror.

Kappa wallpaper on all my computer monitors (2 monitors at work, plus a laptop for personal use), all have the letters KAPsi with Phi Nu Pi and coat of arms, but one screen includes pics of the founders.

Kappa coffee mug at office

Yes, we won't talk about the time I tried to do the skull & crossbones...

jennie3576 05-24-2007 11:45 AM

I've been accused of "double dorkin' it"
 
Yes it's true. I rock my letters all over the place - even though it's been 12 years since initiation!

My "baby Jetta" has a cool AST sticker with anchors, and a green/yellow stained glass anchor on the rear-view

I have a bazillion t-shirts - screen prints and letters (i make my own letters....it's cheaper and i find really hot fabrics to use)

tote bags, windbreakers, keychains, coffee mugs...

i AM obsessive!

Sophist08edLady 05-24-2007 11:52 AM

I have a license plate frame. In my office I have an Alpha Kappa Alpha coffee mug, the background on my bullentin board is pink and green.

Sugar08 05-24-2007 11:55 AM

License plate frame and keychain. Umbrella when it's rainy.

cuteASAbug 05-24-2007 11:58 AM

I have a bracelet that I got from my big for initiation that I wear a lot. It's a sterling silver bracelet with four charms on it- a star, a palm tree, a crown, and an oval with the ASA crest on it. It's one of my favorite pieces of jewelry and I think I end up wearing it about 3-4 times a week.

Was that your black car I saw on 11th St yesterday? :D

I have a small crest on my car and I use a Nalgene with our name spelled out during the school year.

AOIIalum 05-24-2007 03:54 PM

I wear my AOII signet ring daily.
