Clothes for "Spring" 2014 Recruitment

[3llkay]

Hey guys,

I know it's a bit early, but since I'll be doing a fair amount of shopping over the upcoming winter break in preparation for spring recruitment, I wanted to ask a bit of fashion advice. I go to a northern school with a pretty large and established Greek system, but recruitment here isn't quite as cutthroat as in the south. It is also very, very cold during "spring" rush, and cute tank top/shorts combos & sundresses aren't the norm. I'm a bit more sure about what I'm going to wear during the casual rounds, but for the last three (house tours "business/snappy casual", skit & philanthropy "business", and preference "semi-formal) I'm less set in my choices. I put together some combinations and I would like to see what you think.

I'm trying to be fashionable and memorable, but I don't want to cross any lines. Also, I've chosen a lot of flat shoes not because I have anything against heels, but because I'm 5'10" already. I walk quite well in heels, but they make me somewhat Amazonian in height and I feel like towering over sisters would be a bit awkward.

I'll cut to the chase. Here's what I'm thinking:

Round 3 - House Tours "Business/Snappy Casual"


Round 4 - Skit "Business"


Round 5 - Preference "Semi-Formal"


Of course I'll be wearing a big puffy jacket while going from house to house!

*Note: When they say "business", they don't mean literally business like a suit. It's a level of formality. Just thought I'd clarify!
