Cowboy boots, yay or nay?
 

Recruitment starts on the 24th.
What do you think about wearing cowboy boots during open house?
I'm going for TTU in Texas.

Shoot me now if you think they're dreadful, lol.
For the third round I'm going to wear a tan-ish brown dress and I was thinking to wear brown cowboy boots.
Not pref day, but the day before. Our open house days are split into 2 days.

Yes. No. Yes. No?

Well me personally I would say no to the cowboy boots but that's just because I've never really liked them.

What I would do if the third round is pref (i'm assuming) I would do a really pretty brown sandal with it ( a heeled sandal like a kitten heel to a 2" heel)

GOOD LUCK THOUGH WITH RECRUITMENT!!!!

Not sure if you're asking about open house or third round...

Open house they may be okay, depending on the campus. They'd better be comfortable, though.

If third round is pref (not sure if it is or not), I would say no to the boots. Pref is a more dressy event, and cowboy boots with a dress are not dressy. I realize that I'm not southern, but cowboy boots and a dress just scream casual to me.

I like some cowboy boots but wouldn't advise wearing them for an open house.

They are too cliche. Don't wear them.

No - you want the attention on you, not your clothing. Boots would really stand out - maybe in a good way, maybe not - I wouldn't risk it.

Ok I am from West Texas and if you see people wear boots and they look cute, I'd wear them. I would check with my friends and see what they said. That being said a friends who daughter went through rush at TCU this fall wore some Jessica Simpson boots with a sun dress. It looked really cute and she could pull it off. But if this is pref day I would say NO. And no to sandles in Lubbock in Jan.

Normally I'd say no to cowboy boots, but you ARE in Texas. I mean, Wade Phillips wore cowboy boots to his interview with the Dallas Cowboys and he got the job. I'd ask your Rho Gamma or get the consensus of other PNMs.

No.

I say no. I don't care what round it is, don't wear them to recruitment with a dress.

No. Please. No.

MY opinion...

Yes:

No (for more reasons than the navy blue & black combo):

Alpha Frog, with all due respect, trust someone experienced with a lot of Texas rushes. Although cute in its own way, that is not a look that will go over well at Tech and will draw attention to the PNM in a not so positive way.

Palpitation, if you seriously question if something slightly unusual would be OK to wear during rush, chances are you'll end up being self conscious if you wear it. I've seen your other posts and know you're super anxious, so don't add anything you're unsure of to the mix.

My D had to buy a pair for rush b/c all the actives had to wear "themed outfits" every day and one day was western so I wouldn't want to wear them to a house that all the actives were wearing them. Since you don't know what they'll be wearing, I'd steer clear of them.
