Cornell's chapter of Pi Phi has rules. The Legally Blonde, Mean Girls, no jeans allowed, have to wear pink kind. Yes, that's right, the Pi Phi Rush Chair has provided her minions with specific dress code requirements, and Fashionista has generously sent them out into the world...
Would you pass muster? Would anyone in Manhattan for that matter?
Some of the biggest sins:
-Denim leggings are not appropriate so no "chic, cool chunky boots" over an American Apparel pair for you young lady!
-No tops which are : low-cut, sleeveless, tank tops, frumpy. Also preferably no short sleeves please and thank you!
-Boots are to be worn over pants, without a high heel!
-Also, no open-toed shoes, cheapo anything or, "fuck-me-pumps"
-"No satin dresses. No one looks good in satin dresses unless it's from Betsey Johnson or Dolce & Gabbana, you weigh less than 130 pounds, have three pairs of Spanx on and it's New Years Eve."
And just in case you forgot how your mother used to nag you about your outfits as a child, Pi Phi has set up a system to help!:
"I'm going to be doing dress checks so have your outfits ...completely figured out before... If you do not know if something is appropriate/works, email me a picture of it and I shall discuss things with you."
Thanks Mom/Prison Warden!! Couldn't get dressed without ya!

Plovgh, the new online farmers market
Who knew that the farming world had a trend? Well, Mallory Sustick, a Brooklyn bartender, works like a dog to maintain, promote and advance the online farmer's market startup Plovgh that began after noticing a need for more local farm market distribution.

I find it refreshing that these young women are guided into dressing well, especially considering what passes for female (and male) fashion on campus these days. Bravo, Pi Phis!
