Ditto. And the daisy print dress is adorable!

In my experience Sperrys are very popular on many campuses. I live the metallic ones and wish those had been around back in my day.

Sperry's are totally in. That wasn't my point. My point was that if you have to go to a lot of parties in one day, your feet might to stink in a pair of Sperry's. If I were going to parties all day and walking outside in a pair of Sperry's my feet would sweat a lot and then stink to high heaven. Not a good thing.

Maybe if you switched the Sperry's out with sandals, like people do with pumps it would be okay.

Thank you everyone for all of the advice. Like I said in the OP, I have 3 of the 4 day's outfits planned out. Here is an idea for the 3rd day- Sisterhood. I want to wear a nicer sundress/summer dress in coral. I currently have the J. Crew necklace shown below (in turquoise) and it always looks so pretty with coral. I just can't seem to find a flattering dress in coral that isn't too dressy or too casual. Any help?

By the way, this is the layout of my schools recruitment week:

Day 1- Open house (sundresses and sandals)
Day 2- Philanthropy (official recruitment shirt and shorts)
Day 3- Sisterhood (nicer sundresses and heels)
Day 4- Preference (casual cocktail i.e. nice dresses and heels)

That last dress from ModCloth that the other PNM posted would go well with your tourquise necklace and is probably the right amount of dressy/casual.

Do you think it would be too much going on with the necklace I have pictured?

No problem! I love shopping for people, and work is boring

Also, coral and turquoise is one of my favorite color combinations ever.

Ok, after happilyanchored's help (thanks again!) I found another dress I like for Sisterhood Day. Thoughts?

I can't really tell, because of the background, and the fact my computer sucks-- but it looks like the necklace is silver and the earrings are gold. I'm old school... and hate mixed metals if there isn't a piece that brings both metals together. (Like I said, Old School!) The necklace stands out so nicely, that I'm not sure you'd even need earrings with this.

The metal on the necklace is gold, it's just a bad picture

They might be popular, stylish, in with the kids, but that still doesn't make my opinion about sporting clothing being worn when not participating in that activity any different, nor that I found a lot of the new styles from Sperry hard on the eyes. I am well aware of the difference in style choices, and that particular Sperry is too neutral with the other clothing choices.

The earrings are sort of blah - they look almost like thumbtacks. If the only reason you're wearing them is just to have earrings, I'd leave them off or go with a tiny pearl or turquoise stud.
