Wearing letters in colors other than your GLO's

[SWTXBelle]

Gamma Phi has adopted pink as an "unofficial" color - this last convention. Basically, it is used in our new official logo and they specify certain shades of pink. It is acts as an accent color to our brown and mode. So, if Gamma Phi chapters are using pink, they are in compliance with their IHQs dictates. I will say the Gamma Phi pink is "hotter" than most Phi Mu pinks I've seen - but then Phi Mu HQ has a hot pink golf cart that is as cute as a bug!

Oh yes, I have seen the new logo, but prior to that I noticed a lot of chapters adopted pink and white. The new logo is very cute, but I like it because it incorporates the brown which is an official color. I understand a bit better now since as someone said, they took if from the flower, unfortunately for both of us, it happens to be the same flower! LOL! Yes, I'm a huge fan of that hot pink golf cart, many of my chapter sisters have been in it. Hoepfully I will one day get the chance.

Gamma Phi has had a tradition of chapter colors - for example, my chapter colors were red and blue - so it is possible a chapter had the colors of pink and white (although that would not be advisible on a campus with Phi Mu!). Everyone in my chapter had to have an official jersey in the chapter colors.
I like having my letters in various colors - my favorite shirt right now is dark gray with pink letters.
And I hate the letters on the butt.

I for one would hate to wear the colors of another sorority since the colors for my sorority have special meaning and I am sure the colors of Delta, Zeta, and SGRho have special meaning so I would NEVER put my letters on their colors!

as a fraternity member, my viewpoint might be a little different but I see guys all the time in my chapter with t-shirts have different colors for TKE and there's not a problem with it. However, I haven't seen anyone yet with sewn-ons in a different color...

I don't care if girls wear other colors in their letters. If guys wear other colors, plaid, paisely or dots it is extremly gaaaaay. I doubt Derek Jeter will ever be caught wearing a pink, green and paisley Yankee cap. A Rod probably has one though.
