Do they switch it around every year, NUBlue&blue, or did you happen to hit a year where they changed everything up?
(I think my friend's daughter's list is pretty similar to what the group wore last year, but I don't really know. Since she's a new member, she didn't have it already.)

They change it a little bit every year, like this year the white skirt and black skirt are still ok, but they're going with different shirts with the white skirts and different sweaters with the black skirts.....but last year, we had to get a black skirt because they didn't like the black skirt she already had (too full? too long?) and had to get a black dress because they didn't like the $250 Ann Taylor black dress that she already owned (it had tiny beads on it that you could barely see), so had to buy another black dress. This year there is a different holy grail sundress that we are searching for....it's just frustrating when they won't go into a store and look around to see what is out there before making pronouncements on what everybody has to wear.
SWTXBelle, my daughter almost did that when she was going through recruitment a couple of years ago. We had planned out her outfits for every round, wrote it all down so she could get it all together, etc. She was going to wear a bright green polo shirt and denim miniskirt to philanthropy round, but ended up wearing a cute blouse and capri pants instead. She called and said, "I'm so glad I didn't wear that outfit, when I walked into AB, guess what they were all wearing.....bright polos and denim miniskirts!" Funny thing is...that's the sorority she ended up joining, too.
