"Badge Attire"

I'm having trouble keeping up with this blog...

A peek into the Greek Life:

So, for Gamma Phi Beta we decided that Mondays are "Badge Attire" days- That means you dress up/wear business casual or more fancy outfits AND, importantly, your 'badge'- for me, it's a New Member pin. For the initiated sisters, they have their own badge (from Tiffany's, of course, with their name inscripted on the back).

The purpose?
A combination of publicity (PR stuff) and sisterhood.
You dressing up is supposed to provoke someone to ask, "Why are you dressed up?" and then you explain Badge Attire, and of course, mention that you're in a sorority named Gamma Phi Beta. Cha-ching! Associating girls looking nice with a sorority (and particularly, if you are respected/liked by that person, they'll probably think highly of the sorority too).
Another part of this is the sisterhood aspect- we are all supposed to dress up; you're more likely to comment on a sister's outfit if they're dressed up! We comment on each others 'badge attire' being cute, which can start a conversation and relating to each other.

Back to work!
Curtis OUT!
