It’s the final day Of Greek Week here on my blog and we’re wrapping up my “What To Wear” series with ten outfit ideas for Preference round of sorority recruitment. If you missed my ten outfit ideas for Open House round click here, and my ten outfit ideas for Sisterhood round click here.
As always, my goal is to provide as much outfit inspiration as possible while sharing styles that are realistic + affordable. A majority of the items I’m styling in today’s post are rather new (with the exception of my jewlery + a few other pieces) and can be shopped directly through the product images/links below.

In today’s YouTube video I’m sharing the final sorority recruitment lookbook! I’ve got ten outfit ideas perfect for Preference round of sorority recruitment. Although Greek Week is wrapping up, I will still be sharing new college content every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday; make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss the fun!
THE OUTFIT IDEAS
As I mentioned the last couple of days, for the sake of there being so many different outfits, I took these photos old school, #mirrorselfie style. I hope you don’t mind—I just knew 30 outfits over the span of three days was too much to ask of Madison, lol.
Anyway, here are ten outfit ideas that are perfect for Preference round of sorority recruitment. Please keep in mind that every school’s dress code is a little different so what works for me, may need to be modified a bit to work for you! If you go to Kent State the suggested outfit guidelines are: cocktail style, dresses, maxis, two-piece sets, rompers, heels.
This is the round that you’ll be (hopefully) sealing the deal so make sure you’re wearing something you’re comfortable and confident in. Put that best foot forward, girl!

This is the round to go out with a bang! I encourage you to make a bold statement with your outfit choice. This bright red screams confidence and will leave all eyes on you. While dresses are definitely the standard for this round, jumpsuits are totally appropriate as well. Plus, if you’re rushing a bit later in the fall, chances are it’s going to be a bit chillier and you’ll be thanking yourself for having pants on.
Plus, this one has pockets which is even better! I’m pairing it with simple gold block heels—this two-inch height is going to be your best friend if you’re not used to wearing heels for long periods of time. Popping on some glittery star earrings to complete my look.
Outfit Details— jumpsuit: Express, heels: SheIn, earrings: SheIn, necklace: The Silver Heron, cuff: Mantra Band
If you’re not feeling the whole dress/jumpsuit thing, feel free to reach for a romper! This one screams “little black romper” and is the perfect option for this round of recruitment. It’s got the cutest open back and fun crochet detailing under the bust. Paired with some simple strappy sandals and a pair of gold hoops you’ve completed a classic look.

I wanted to throw another white dress option into the mix. Almost all of the chapters will have their members wearing white so keep that in mind if you decide to reach for this color; you will definitely mix in with them, lol. This dress has more of a sundress silhouette to it and has the cutest ties along the back of it.
I wanted to give this one a beachy feel so I popped on some straw wedges and a pair of crochet earrings. If you prefer a bohemian vibe, this outfit is the one for you!

Oh, how I love a little black dress, or a long black dress in this case! I actually wore this earlier this week for my 10K photos on Instagram. This dress is so effortlessly sexy. There are a few different ways to tie this dress but I have it wrapped around the back and then along the waist. I have this in the bodysuit, romper, and jumpsuit version so if you’re not sold on the maxi dress, you can totally find an option that better suits you.
I’ve got my classic gold jewels on with this look; both my earrings and cuff are old but they are still some of my most reached for pieces. Definitely check your local Walmart (the Time&Tru) line for the best $4 statement earrings. I highly recommend wearing a big pair of earrings; they will frame your face and draw attention to it!

If I were going through recruitment again, this is without a doubt the outfit I would wear. I cannot stress enough how important it is to express your personal style during recruitment! The girls recruiting you want to see you for who you are and more times than not an out-there outfit is going to be the one they compliment/talk about later on.
You also want to choose something that sparks meaningful conversation. For me, talking about my blog and the brand I’ve built is an easy conversation to have when I’m wearing something as bold as this pastel tulle dress and these boa fur heels. I definitely don’t recommend these shoes though if you’re new to wearing heels as they are very tall!

You can’t go wrong with a maxi dress! If this is more your style than a mini dress, don’t be afraid to reach for one. This is another dress with more of a bohemian feel. The off the shoulder, tiered ruffles, and smocked bust are all so cute. Not to mention, a dainty floral print never goes out of style! I’ve got this one on with just a flat pair of sandals.

If you have a color that really speaks to you, perhaps there’s a backstory to it like me with yellow or maybe it’s your secret weapon to feeling confident, go full-on monochrome with it! This linen dress is the perfect start.
I paired it with some chunky heels in the same color. These are some of my favorite heels as they’ve got a super thick wedge to them making them extremely comfortable if you’re going to be on your feet for long periods of time; in fact these were the heels I wore for my own Preference round. This look screams happy thoughts!

I could not love this maxi dress more. It’s definitely not everyone’s style but it’s got such a unique color palette with the most gorgeous pleats. It’s super wide with lots of fabric making it move like an absolute dream. I could twirl in this for days.
You can’t see them, but my yellow block heels match to a tee and my tassel earrings are the perfect finishing touch. This outfit will surely get you lots of looks so make sure you’ve got the confidence to go along with it!

You definitely don’t need to go out and buy all new clothes as many of these looks can be recreated with items already found in your wardrobe. However, if you are planning on purchasing something from today’s blog post a majority of the items are from SheIn and you can use my code Q4mckenz15 to get 15% off your entire purchase.
I really hope this series gave you some outfit inspiration for your own sorority recruitment! I had so much fun putting together all of these looks and would love to do more laid back blog posts like this one if you’re interested. Let me know what you think and I’ll be sure to take your thoughts into consideration for my July content. Thanks so much for tuning into Greek Week!
With love, McKenz
