If you could do it again...RE: Clothing

How conservative should the shoes be? I have a pair of cute wedges with a funky print on them but I've read that we should stick to conservative styles (solid colored pumps). Just wondering if a pair of fun shoes would be appropriate or not? Also, would 4 inch heels be considered too high? Is it okay to wear flats?

I think it depends what you wear with them. Fun shoes are great so long as they're not overpowering everything else. Patterned wedges with a solid, neutral dress? Probably ok. With a crazy printed dress? Probably not.
Any questions about outfits that you might have should probably be directed to your recruitment counselor -- they know what's normal at your school. In general I think it's better to err on the side of being more conservative, but again, it depends on the place.

It obviously differs school to school.. But.. At my school for pref round I wore a plain simple black dress with cute leopard and black heels. The girl rushing me complimented them and said she was definitely borrowing them, it made for good non-awkward / friendly conversation at a nerve racking and stressful time
