I just don't know what to do. I would really love it if some one, any one could help me.
Unfortunately, being in a standards position is never jolly fun. People aren't going to be happy with what you have to say. What I would suggest is reminding people of WHY it is important to follow certain rules. Following proper dress code, for instance does a number of things like:
  • Making sorority members look polished on their way to a meeting
  • Encouraging professionalism during the meeting (when you look professional, you feel professional)
  • Preparing the women for their future job interviews and careers
You have to come up with your own reasons, because if there really isn't a good reason to keep doing it, why continue?
