I LOL at that! There's an Alpha Phi who's at all of the Panhellenic events here, and she has an AMAZING badge! She has her pin, then a crest for her guard, and every conceivable office on the chain. She says that she wears it at least once a week - which I believe, since I once investigated the cost of making my pin similar and almost fainted! She gets questioned about it all of the time, and wears in on her lapel.
For a while, I heard that we can wear our pins on our lapel IF the blazer/suit jacket was buttoned shut. Then I heard we can't - so I don't know. I so rarely wear pin attire to work, so I'm sure to be questioned. On past NPC Badge Days, I've worn either my pin ring or lavelier.
Oh, I've also seen two badges connected - it's very interesting, especially when the two are distinctly different. I've also heard that some alumnae can use a little discretion about cheating a little on the rules, claiming "alumnae privilege". My own theory is that I'd rather see ancient sorority women wearing their badges in a polite, if not correct, way rather than seeing pins in drawers. (She says, knowing that she could get pilloried for that!)
And I LOVE the idea of the guys joining in!
) was to wear your badge when you're proud to be a Kappa and proud to broadcast it out to the world. Yes, it's most often with "pin attire" but it doesn't have to be. And I like it that way! But... to each her own. I will be wearing the proper attire anyway due to the dress code at work... but I am going to wear a shirt that nicely highlights my keys. I'm thinking black, so the gold really pops.
