What the heck is "snappy dressy?" "Dressy casual" "Resort chic?"
No wonder I don't know what to wear anymore.

I'm just thankful I'm not a PNM and have to figure that out!

I would guess that "snappy casual" is the opposite of "schlumpy casual." For example, khakis; snappy is flat front with no pockets, ironed (possibly starched) and well fitting, schlumpy is cargo with a zillion pockets and soft enough/loose enough to sleep in.

Maybe it makes it easier as far as not having to pick what to wear, but I can't IMAGINE if I would have had to wear, say, a yellow t-shirt when I was a rushee. I look like crap in it. The intent is good I guess, but feeling off your game by being forced to wear unflattering colors or cuts doesn't really help. Not to even mention the poor actives trying to differentiate women in a sea of identical t-shirts.

Kinda goes off on a "what not to wear" tangent, but this thread (http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...d.php?t=115173) has a lot of great clothing suggestions/examples.

If you are looking for brands:
Lilly
Kate Spade
Polo
Vinyard Vines

Safe bets. Basically classic preppy. If you look now, there might be mega discounts on last year's fall collection at places like Off Fifth and Nordstrom Rack.

I'd wear anything you picked out on that thread, WhiteDaisy. You have a fabulous eye. Your picks are creative, classy and not boring. They stand out, in a good way.
