Every Sorority Girls Necessities....

[RedHotChiO]

What is a sorority bitch bag????

[gammazetagrl]

I'm assuming the sorority bitch bag is the versatile Kate Spade SAM or whatever one purse you carry everywhere.

LoL I change purses like every other day to match my outfit though.

[AOTLALA]

Okay,at Elon College, every girl needs--
1. good color lipstick
2. a pair of good sorority block letters
3. Semi formal or mixer tee to throw on
4. Your "I LOVE AOTT(or whatever you are) pin
5. A good planner
6. a pair of black pants
7. knowledge of what is on special at every bar that night
8. knowledge of what time they start charging cover
9. and most importantly, your "girls", not neccesarily just your sorority sisters but a big group of greek women that know where every party is, every rumor spoken, have an extra set of keys to your car/house, and that you basically don't breath without

[AlphaChiChristy]

AOTLALA, you know that AXO is coming to elon? is this well accepted by other sororities and frats or not? just curious. My necessities were (i'm an alum now):

1. black pants (seems to be a recurring theme)
2. push up bra to give cleavage, but not trashy cleavage.
3. 3" chunk casual heels that look great with jeans or your black pants. make your legs look 5' tall all by themselves.
4. AXO bag (the one you carry to meetings)to have with you on campus, too.
5. Block letters to wear on Wed. (Wed. was Panhellenic letters day at my school)
6. my lavalier
7. my sisters! school would've sucked without them!

Rarely do I see LV around college campus- it's mostly Kate Spade or NineWest.
I do have a LV Pink Houston. The style is "vernis" which is a shiny material. It's different but very cute. I also have another LV- the original Monogram style- I rarely use it- I use my black Kate Spade Sam for everyday use.

I'm off to my first year of college and I hope to go Greek. I went to a small, private school so I'm very nervous about meeting new people and making a good first impression. Please tell me if my list is OK or if I need to do some updating! I am beside myself.
* north face backpack for main school books and notebooks.
* prada backpack, messenger bag, make up tote for "just in case" items.
* thousands of hair ties.
* a playstation 2 (I'm a tomboy at heart!).
* forties style miu miu high heels for socials (I read that look was "in").
* lip gloss!
* versatile black logo kitten heels from gucci.
* kate spade jewelry box and raincoat.
* tiffany's collection - from what I've read, I suppose that is an essential part of the sorority girl's wardrobe.
* the kate spade photo album for when i get homesick.
* louis vuitton pouchette and checkbook.
* the "bombshell manual of style" book.
* sunglasses collection.
* burberry essentials - scarves, unbrellas, mittens, you name it. A girl must always be prepared.
* louis vuitton luggage set(I don't have this though yet - its rather expensive).
* the infamous calvin klein black peacoat.
* a never-ending supply of hair straightening cream.
Please tell me what you think - I'm scared to death of being the campus dork. If you can think of anything else that could possibly work, please let me know, as well.

I have a question for all you ladies who know what's "in" and what's "out" (I am fully submerged in the "mommy" thing so I'm not completely sure what's what fasion-wise at this time)

I was going through some of my old things and I came upon my huge Louis Vuitton bag that I used to carry when I was in college (It's basically the late 80's version of the Kate Spade Sam bag). Does anyone still carry Louis Vuitton? I don't think I have seen much of it around lately. Help?

Thanks!

Hey Azelyn,
While it is ok to be well-dressed in college (no one wants to look like a slob), you probably don't want to come off as high-maintenance and overly label conscious. What school are you going to in the fall? Keep in mind that most people don't have the money to buy designer things, so you may kind of stick out if you wear all of those things at once. Don't worry so much. Be yourself and school will be fine.

I believe your list is sufficient. You don't need most of that stuff to make a good impression (although your PS2 may help a bit ). I can honestly say that most of us don't even own half of the things on your list...but hey--I bet we wouldn't mind having them.

Good luck on Fall Recruitment and keep us updated!

About the PS2 and other expensive items, be careful if you're staying in a dorm. After a while you'll get cozy, leave your room unlocked "just for a minute", and things can/will get stolen. My (GDI) friends who lived in the dorms went room to room trying doors, if the doors were unlocked they'd raid the fridge looking for beer. Getting a few beers stolen sucks, but what if the person stealing sees that PS2 and decides to take it too? That'd suck beyond words. Be careful, lock your door, and write down the serial numbers from all electronic equiptment. Good luck!

yeah really, what school will you be attending? i'm curious. it sounds like with that list, you'd be overdoing it almost anywhere you went. you don't want to come across as overly prissy and label-conscious. i don't know if i'd necessarily be "impressed" by a freshman girl who felt the need to wear thousands of dollars worth of clothes and jewelry at one time on a day-to-day basis. you don't want to "flaunt" your money even if you have lots of it. i'd be way more impressed with a girl who obviously was loaded but didn't feel the need to push it in everyone's face all the time with designer EVERYTHING. i go to a small private school and even the ladies in the "most upper-crust" sorority don't seem as obsessed with labels as you might be. just relax a little. it's ok to wear j.crew sometimes, really. realize that you might not necessarily put across a positive first impression by spending tons of money on labels. people might actually feel threatened and resent you.
