it's probably my age, but the cowboy boots DO NOT flatter girls legs. both girls in the photos probably have nice legs when wearing heels, but the boots make their legs look short and chunky.
FWIW, at other schools(not sure about yours), girls use the clothing guidelines loosely and step them up a bit from the suggestions by panhellenic.

That's the first thing I thought when I saw those pics. Just absolutely awful. The style of skirts they're wearing makes it even worse.
Quite frankly, the only one in those pictures that I think looks nice at all is the brown print dress for pref. Otherwise, there are some BAD fashion choices going on. White pants? Super-flat flats with hemlines that long? Blech. I'm going to ask too, is this a generational thing??

Being from that generation, I have to admit I think most of those outfits are not exactly my style. The first cowboy boot one is okay... Yeah, I definitely wouldn't take any of those suggestions exactly, but it did help me get the idea of the "dressiness" level.

Careful LizzieBee. Those girls are actives and will be participating in recruitment. The cowboy boot and skirt thing is huuuge at UNC but I wouldn't recommend it for recruitment for a PNM.

they are probably panhellenic officers or recruitment counselors, but "discretion is key."

drgnlady, I edited. That's what I was trying to say, I actually like the cowboy boot trend (I'm still looking for a pair I like), I just wasn't a huge fan of the entire look, especially for recruitment.

These are real girls wearing real outfits. Many of them are friends of my daughter. She has confirmed that, for the most part, the clothes in the Recruitment booklet accurately reflect what sorority women at UNC wear.

Be sure to put your thoughts daily in document, and that way, you can cut and paste after bid day. Good luck!

Well, I'm 40, so I doubt they give a $%^k what I think. I'm sure the 40 year old alums looked at our big hair, denim minis with bobbysox and oversize shirts and thought we looked ridiculous too.
And since LizzieBee has edited her post, it would be nice of you to edit yours as well.

Over the years, the PNMs at Carolina have really stepped up from the guidelines. We've seen Lily sundresses and DvF wrap dresses on the first night! This isn't the majority, but most girls do go a step above the recommended attire for each event.
Good luck & go Tar Heels!
