I echo the congrats!
If you have someone in the chapter you trust (a big, NM educator, just an older sister) take her with you shopping like some of the above posters said. Keep in mind though that going through your closet first might help. Don't buy a whole new wardrobe without seeing if you have any pieces that can be used already. Also check with roomates about borrowing somethings at first if money is an issue.
aephi alum is right about the staples in general, but your campus may be different. Depends on the culture of your campus, for example on my campus striped pullover windbreakers were a staple that almost every greek had because we had really bad thunderstorms. I know we only dressed up for chapter meetings every other week. On the off weeks attire for us was something with letters (tshirt, hoodie, event t) and jeans. I think it all goes back to check what the sisters in your chapter expect then ask for help finding it. Plus a shopping trip is a great way to bond!
