On the day that Panhellenic suggested jeans or jean skirts, alot of girls wore nice-fitting jeans with heels and nice tops. It really doesn't matter what brand, as long as they fit well, are comfortable, and look cute.

Four things come to mind:

1. Dress appropriately, always. Girls, in general, do not want to see your boobs or belly button piercing.

2. Make your own statement. Find small ways to deviate from the suggestions, like the three quarter length sleeve another person suggested, or a unique color.

3. Dress based on what you are looking for. If you want to be in a sorority where the girls will be impressed by your clothing brands, then I would go with expensive jeans. But if you do not want to be in a group with that sort of atmosphere, I would just make sure you have a clean (not torn or ratty), well fitting pair of jeans to wear. Everything you do, say, wear...it all sends a message, so just think about what kind of message you want to send.

4. Dress based on the trends at your school. At some schools, girls wear heels 24/7, and at some girls dress down. Just go with the majority on this one, as long as you are also keeping your own personality in mind.

feeding the trolls

Here's a page with mostly examples of what NOT to wear.

http://www.asu.edu/studentaffairs/mu...at_to_Wear.pdf

Have a field day with this page, ladies.

Everything is too tight, too short, too tacky, too low cut, too see-through, etc.

I am particularly a fan of the pref dresses. The description says something that you would wear to church, yet "the girls" are hanging out in half of those pics.

and those outfits did not seem particularly flattering on either of the two models. if nothing else, what the pnm wears should flatter her.

I am not even from the South, and I would never wear those outfits to a recruitment party! I am all for expressing your personality with clothes, but tastefully.

One thing I find particularly funny is on the first page it says "all clothing provided by HERE ON THE CORNER." Sure looks that way.

Wow. Yeah if I showed up Sunday morning in those dresses my mom would tell me to turn my spandex clad butt around and go home and change.

I'd say lean more towards the classic look. Trendy stuff doesn't look good on everyone and half the time honestly I think it looks seriously tacky and/or stupid.
