I don't think people said they were required to purchase certain labels, did they? Seriously, maybe I missed that?

Anyway, as a former rush chair, I know that a lot of times these "rules" come from the fact that there are a handful of girls who just don't get it. No matter how many times they hear - "Be presentable, we're having guests" they think it appropriate to roll out of bed, put their hair in a ponytail and toss on dirty sneakers. By setting the rules you don't have to single anyone out by saying - "Suzie! You have claws for toenails! Please cut them before First rounds!!!"

It also depends on the chapter. In my chapter, we'd never say mani/pedi in 'cardinal'! But on the day we wore letters and khaki skirts/shorts I had to say no sweatshirts only t's and skirts or shorts that were mid-thigh or longer (it was the 90's we didn't do micro-minis!!!!)
