The purple would be OK IF it is bright enough to "pop." If it's a plummier or too deep of a color, it'll look muddy instead of being a cool accent.

If you're wearing all black, you could wear almost any color shoe. If you have a pair of heels you love, wear them.

Top or bottom pair? I feel like the top pair is definitely more classy looking but sometimes I feel like pointed toes are a little much.

 Your preference dress & accessories are black and gold, a combination near and dear to my heart.

^^I agree. They were huge in TX when my dd was in camp and they are in where I live now. I think all of the outfits are perfect for my neck of the woods

Both of those pairs of pref shoes make my feet hurt just looking at them. I'm so glad I'm an old lady and have opted for comfort over fashion, to an extent...lol.
I saw an adorable pair of Sperry's that were tan with kind of colorful, almost seashell look parts that one of hypo's friends had. They were adorable. I like the look Better than flip flops for sure.

The OP and my daughter could be twins. If that dress isn't exactly the same one she just bought, it's as close as can be. And, her Sperrys are really close, too. And, she loves Lilly. I think all the outfits are classic.
What about a French manicure for preference? I'm not a fan of the tan nail polish, or green, but I may be out of the loop on that. Frankly, I'd just do a French manicure for the whole thing instead of changing polish. You'll probably see the members being more conservative with polish.

To be clear, though, we are nit-picking every last thing because we are old ladies who wish we could do it all over again. You shouldn't worry about every chapter member looking at your outfit and picking it apart like we are. I just want to keep this in perspective. It looks like you've picked lovely outfits, and you should be comfortable in them and wear them with confidence, not worry about whether your toenails are the wrong color.

All of your outfits are adorable and would be great at UT...which is probably similiar to UGA... Most of the girls wore Sperry's my daughter's year (2010) instead of tennis shoes. Im guessing that the t-shirt could be any color and that you just used white as an example...at least that is how it is at UT..they dont "unvail" the t-shirt color until opening convocation when they are passed out.
I love the Lilly dress and Jack Rogers..very cute..and your pref dress is very classy!
As far as the dresses that you asked about today..I love the second one (orange with bow). It is adorable!

I don't think the lace dress would be appropriate for either of those rounds. The orange dress with the bow is cute-the bright color could be eye catching in the first round. i agree with Barbino, the "daisy" dress would be cute for Philanthropy round.
The double blue chevron-like dress could be construed as you trying to impress(or stalk) Kappa Kappa Gamma, so it might not be the wisest choice to wear until after rush is over. The color block is cute too and would be appropriate for 1st round.
As in most southern recruitments, you get a bit more dressy as rush week progresses.
