Trying to upgrade my wardrobe

[HopefulInterest]

I went shopping tonight and had some success. I got a plain, black skirt from H&M along with a couple tunics, one in black, and the other in one of the sorority's colors, and a navy blue cardigan from Papaya. In total I only spent about $25. There was a dress that I thought about buying but didn't end up getting, but I'll probably go back for it. I think I did well.

No, no, no, no, no. I wouldn't walk around telling people that you bought a shirt in a sorority's colors, no matter which type of organization you wish to join. It comes across as presumptuous.

I don't know how this particular GLO does their recruitment, but the OP has said she is an "official interest," so wearing the colors might be considered more acceptable, or even encouraged for someone of that status. It seems like her situation would be viewed differently as, say, a girl wearing a green and pink dress to prefs at DZ in an NPC recruitment, but I could be wrong.

Try Banana Republic too. I know they have a reputation for being pricier, but their sales are unbelievable. Yesterday they were running 30% additional off anything marked down. I got four dresses, two sweaters, and four tops for under $250 total. All stylish but appropriate for work or chapter wear - but several that I'd also change up shoes or accessories and feel comfortable wearing out for an evening with the girls!

Ahhh RIF and I didn't read that correctly. I was going by the username. I fail at reading comprehension today.

If I am incorrect, I apologize!! Thanks for pointing it out, GG!
