Rush Ridiculousness

One of the first image results when you search for 'sorority' on google

I don’t know much about sororities. All I know I’ve learned about TV shows and movies that portray what I thought was a ridiculous sorority stereotype. It’s nice to know they got the stereotype from somewhere, apparently the girls at Cornell’s Phi Phi sorority. They sent out a 7 pagI e list of dress requirements for rush week and here are some favorite of my favorite requirements:

CLOTHING

• No muffin tops or extreme low rise!!
• No Cropped pants. Ugh
• If wearing a skirt tights are necessary!
• No summer pattern/colors
• No frumpy
• No Satin: No one looks good in satin dresses unless it’s from Betsey Johnson or Dolce and Gabbana, you weigh less than 130 pounds, have 3 pairs of spanx on and it’s New Years Eve.

SHOES

• Nice flats: Tory Burch, etc. More evening-ish understated
• No sky-high hooker heels!
• Boots worn OVER pants
• NO white
• If you’re wearing cheapo shoes amke sure they don’t look it.
• No “Fuck-me-pumps”
• No Tacky/cheapo/pleather. Don’t mess with me.

ACCESSORIES

• No obnoxious piercings.
• No chokers
• No ribbon overkill
• No plastic
• No charm. we aren’t 5. unless I say it’s beautiful
• No forever21 rings
• I will not tolerate any gross plastic shizz
  

OTHER NOTES

• Shaved legs
• If you don’t know if something is appropriate/works, email me.
• Blush. This is not optional.
• No mustaches
• No chapped lips
• No sultry. It’s noon people. And these are girls, not laxers. No need to seduce them with caked on black eye makeup.
  
• Nails: you best have a mani pedi when you get to Ithaca.
• Wear perfume
• Wear deodorant
• Get waxed, cut, colored and groomed!!! Mani and pedi prior to Ithaca.

I though sororities were about sisterhood, not a ridiculous fashion police. If you must see the full list. They’re all here.
