I'm going through recruitment in a few weeks at a school that is considered competitive, but is not an SEC or other Southern school. I'm pretty sure of what I'm going to be wearing for most of the process, but I'd like to run my Pref dress past you lovely people, if that's okay.
My school's attire suggestion for Pref reads: "Wear a nice dress on this day, such as one you might wear to an afternoon wedding."
I went on over to Polyvore (which is completely addictive) and found my dress and decent matches for my accessories. The dress is a tiny bit long on me (no more than an inch) because I'm vertically challenged, but I figured it's better the dress be too long than too short. Other than that, it fits like a dream. It's 100% cotton and very well-made. My pearl earrings aren't exactly like these; the drop is about twice as long and the pearls themselves are smaller, but they're close. Please let me know what you think, because my inner perfectionist is freaking out over here.
