Regional differences are so funny. If someone wore a sundress to a football game at my university or any other schools near me, they would be looked at like they came from another planet. (Went to a Big 10 school.) |
Even though I don't go to school in the Deep South, I'm still in the South and it's beginning to catch on here. A lot of people still go in shorts and t-shirts, but sundresses can be perfect for the weather...here, our football season is STEAMING hot (even thru November) and sundresses are light and comfortable. Of course, there are some schools that go all out in formalwear-I don't think we will ever go that far in Florida, but I think it's cute.
I'm from up north originally and I still don't find the sundress thing foreign...maybe it's just becuase I'm always looking for an excuse to wear a dress! haha
To the original poster: like everyone else said, a big NO on the business suit.
Also, you don't have to shop someplace like Sears to get affordable clothing. Forever 21 is incredibly cheap and also incredibly cute most of the time...even Lindsay Lohan admits to loving Forever 21, so I'm sure appropriate outfits from there would go over well in recruitment. It's okay if you're not loaded...just have style. You can put together relatively inexpensive outfits. Forever has amazing sundresses for about 25 bucks...at my school, you can wear sundresses 2, if not 3 out of the 4 days of recruitment leading up to Bid Day.
Good luck!
