What's your favorite wearable item that displays your affilliation?

My orange and blue anorak is the best. We go to school in Florida, so the anoraks are only practical some of the time, but it's part of the "Sorority girl uniform." (that, and a pair of reefs!) We wear our letters in big white embroidery, but we're all orange and blue, so while we have house pride, we're also Gators (which is nice, b/c it makes ya a little less snippy with other girls!)

And you can't beat the classic lavalier. When I was pledging, that was all I wanted, and I still love it. I never wear it without my trusty arrow charm, too.

My badge obviously, but also a ring that I had made. The band is white gold and the letters are gold. It's awesome and it goes with anything...I wear it all of the time. Besides jewelry, I love this baseball t-shirt I have. It has green sleeves and a white body. The front says "Perfect" with KD in the tail of the t.

Besides my badge, my lavalier, which I almost never take off, and the first set of letters that I bought for myself.

Back in school, the Greeks would make it a point to wear their jerseys- usually a gift from your big. The rule in my chapter was you couldn't wear a jersey until you were initiated, so that was a big deal.

I just bought a Tiffany necklace and am thinking or engraving XO on the heart........

I wear my AGD Rosedrop necklace almost every day. I posted on the AGD site that when I wore it at Tom's family's house last weekend, I got compliments on it...they thought hubby had given it to me.

I'd love to wear my pearl badge with pendant necklace more but it's more formal than I usually wear. I'm thinking of getting a plain badge to wear more often.

Carnation, I bought that sweatheart for our meeting, lol.

I am involved in a local Panhell. group that will be participating in a local July 4th parade. I think we are getting t-shirts with a USA flag and our letters!

I'd have to say my badge... Has my chapter name MT and initiate number on the back 5. When I come into some money one of these days I'm getting a jeweled badge (I heard balfours makes them but have no idea what they cost or how to find out)

If anyone knows, PM me please!

My badge and my shirt with my letters on it my big got me. My chapter has a tradition of littles and bigs giving t-shirts on initiation day. The whole thing is a big secret. My big and I managed to get each other the SAME shirt... It was so cool.

Have to agree with ZEKE and UMgirl!!!! MY BADGE.

It is the only thing I have! But have had it since 1966, White Gold, Pearls in the Cresent , Saphires in the Lambda, with LX guard with pearls!

I am trying to find a maker of Polo Shirts that dont want to jam us so that the Alums and Actives alike have something to wear in public and on campus!

I never was a t-shit guy!

When do you wear your badges? No one at my school ever wears them, with the exception of dress chapter which is every other week.

My number one favorite thing is my badge.

My favorite shirt is one of our bid day shirts. You can see it on the main page at our website.

I am also a fan of my DZ flip flops.

I wear mine every time I dress up nice and don't plan on having any alcohol.

That includes work, church, meetings...

Every time I see someone else wearing their badge it makes me jealous and want to have mine on also.

We got scrub pants this year and I just love mine - they're SO comfy. They have a fleur-de-lis on the leg, and above that they say Kappa Kappa Gamma and below the fleur-de-lis they say Epsilon Zeta. They're basically inside pants, but I wear mine to Voice class because everyone wears PJs because we do a lot of rolling around on the floor and stuff.

My favorite is by far my Badge. I take great pride in wearing it, and if I know I am going to be dressed up, be it at home, on vacation, or at school, I have my badge with me. I was on a cruise in the carribean, and dressed up for dinner every night. The first night I was there wearing my badge, I got stopped in the hallway. I met a man from the southwest US, whom was in Sigma Nu, and recognized my badge.

Right now, since my Son(aka little brother, we use a father/son system, instead of big/little), has my badge, and will have my badge until HQ sends him his. Granted, when I know I'm going to be dressing up, and he isn't, he said he'd make sure to get it back to me for the day, so I don't feel so naked!

Definitely my lavalier! I never was able to scrounge up the money for one during college, so during my alumni ceremony, one of my sisters gave me one!! I've almost never taken it off since!

Badges, beleive it or not, are not actually that big in my sorority, or at least not within my chapter. I never even got mine until I was active for over a year due to a mix up at nationals, so I guess I never really bonded with it. My pledge pin is very important to me though.

Otherwise, I would have to say it's a tie between my first letter sweatshirt, that my big gave to me at initiation, or our homecoming shirts from two years ago, that have Omicron Phi Chapter University of Wisconsin Whitewater Delta Omicron in that athletic-wear style, except our DO letters are in the middle instead of the XL or whatever

(that made no sense)

My favorite is the letters that I got with my big. We decided to take a trip to Depauw (there really isn't anywhere close to get letters in Indianapolis) and get matching letters. They remind me of the drive and how much fun we had just talking and goofing off!
