I think you'd be more comfortable in slightly more relaxed clothing. Those dresses, while cute, may not be comfortable for you during the long recruitment rounds.

Are you from AZ? Or coming from out of state?

ETA: hit the send button too soon. The first dress is cute and the second one - no. Tucson can handle the short length, it's not a problem. It's the print that's way too dizzying. You might not feel good in that dress during recruitment but it sure is cute.

First round: wear nice shorts and cute top(s). that's what the actives will be wearing. Take it up just a notch with a unique piece of jewelry (e.g. I wear a necklace that people comment on and it's a great convo starter).

Second round: again, nice shorts outfit or cute sundress.

Third round: cute sundress would be great. I liked what Elizabeth Edwards' daughter said about her mother's advice: "you'll never regret solids, you'll always regret prints". HOWEVER I know there are really cute prints out there for 18 year olds.

Preference: You know how to dress up pretty, this round is the easiest, IMO.

Frankly I suck at fashion advice; I know what works for me, but don't excel at "dress the pnm" at all. WHERE IS ellebud? She's familiar with my campus. bear_down, cherry sonata, can you help out here? AZ-Alpha Xi has seen the open house rounds and she can certainly tell you what NOT to wear!

You wouldn't believe what I've seen cruzin' sorority row during open house rounds. Don't wear .. torn jean and/or jean shorts, shorts that show (as my father would have said) "possible", tube tops that are to low, tube tops that show middrift love handles, torn t-shirts. Do wear cute shorts and shirt, very casual sun-dress (this isn't the SEC) and above all comfortable shoes .. you're going to be walking alot and it will be hot!

As been said before, you're dressing to impress other women not guys.
