Your Ultimate Guide to OSU Sorority Rush Outfits
Rush week is one of the most exciting (and let's be honest, most photographed) weeks of your college experience—so naturally, your outfits matter! At J.Cole Shoes, we’re all about helping you feel confident, cute, and ready to take on every round in style. Whether you're joining your dream house or finding your people along the way, we’ve got you covered from your first Zoom to Bid Day hugs.
Here’s your go-to outfit breakdown for Oklahoma State University’s sorority recruitment week:
Open House – 2 Days
(Virtual via Zoom)
Keep it simple up top! You’ll need two standout tops that show your personality—think textured fabrics, bright hues, or cute details like puff sleeves or bows. You’ll be seated during these calls, so let your top do the talking. Throw on a touch of lip gloss and a cute pair of earrings to tie it all together.
Philanthropy Round – 2 Days
(T-shirt Provided by Panhellenic)
This is where you bring the fun with your bottoms! Pair your philanthropy shirt with skirts or skorts that pop—like our black and white polka dot style or our new denim skort with blue leopard print. These rounds are casual but high-energy, so opt for something comfortable and cute. Finish the look with sneakers, a bow in your hair, or layered bracelets to keep things fun and expressive.
Sisterhood Round – 2 Days
(Gameday Inspired)
This is the round where you’ll want to rep your Cowboy pride! Think gameday dresses in orange, black, or white—our boutique is stocked with options that are spirited and flattering. Pair them with sandals, sneakers, or boots depending on your style. We love a denim jacket or gameday bag to polish off the look.
Preference Round – 1 Day
(More Formal)
Time to dress it up. You’ll want something a little more elevated—a soft white dress or one in a pastel or jewel tone. We recommend choosing a dress that feels timeless and sweet. This round is all about connection, so choose something that helps you feel your most confident, beautiful self. Don’t forget the details: a sleek shoe, a delicate necklace, and soft curls go a long way.
Bid Day
(Time to Celebrate!)
After a long week, it’s finally here! Comfort is key for all the photos, hugs, and dancing. Go with a cute pair of denim shorts or a skort, and sneakers that can handle all the excitement—Back 70s, anyone? Add a fun hat, your new sorority tee, and be ready to celebrate with your new sisters.
Final Tip: Don’t Overthink It
The most important thing you can wear all week? Confidence. Your outfits are there to express your style—not define your worth. We’re just here to help you feel like your best, most fun, most YOU version. Stop by J.Cole Shoes and we’ll help you plan out every round with looks you’ll want to wear long after rush week.
