I just wanted to apologize to everyone (especially PNMs!) if my posts came across as too brand conscious. I definitely don't want to give off the impression that you have to spend a ton of money for a nice dress for rush! There are gorgeous dresses out there that won't bankrupt you
More than anything, I was just trying to give a guideline to follow as far as style.
I can say without reservation that there is no way in heck I could have afforded a Lily when I rushed. No way, no how, na uh! Well, I could have but I wouldn't have been able to pledge because I wouldn't have had any money left over for dues!
