Damnit...it's sold out. I wanted one too!! I guess I'll just have to write the lady and see if she'll custom-make one. Or I could just go to Walmart and get a $5 polo and $2.50 worth of puffy paint...

Maybe the use of the word "Circus" in their company name should say something. Like, they already know their stuff can't be taken seriously so they call themselves OxfordCircus. Or maybe one of the company peeps got his/her ideas from the latest Barnum & Bailey show.

You know, I can sew a little and I have all this old quilting fabric my grandma gave me....maybe I'll start my own line of questionable-quality sorority clothing.....


Dammit, Oxford Circus beat me to it!

YIPES.

Flower edges have been left raw on purpose...with each wash the edges roll & the flower gets cuter & cuter!

I would say that's a matter of opinion.

Just found this little jewel on their site too:

Quote:
**CHARITY**

You have a philanthropy...why shouldn't we? A portion of every purchase is donated to the National Eating Disorders Association. Visit our corporate site for more information on Oxford Circus' charity efforts. http://oxfordcircusclothing.com/cassiespage.html
Eating disorders?? Could we please stereotype Sorority women just a little more please??

Slightly ironic how their charity is the Eating Disorders Foundation, yet their clothing only goes up to a size 8.

You can never go wrong with a self-decorated paddle (Yes, I know that's old fashioned). If you attend a college that has a greek paraphenalia store in close proximity to its campus, then you can buy a blank paddle for anywhere between $10-$18 depending on what style and size you buy, buy letters for you and your big's names for about $0.50 per letter, greek letters for about $1.50 per letter, and the words "Big Sis" and "Little Sis" for about $2 each. Paint can be bought for cheap at Michaels' (if they have those where you live). Then you can decorate your paddle however you wish and give it as a homemade present to your big.
