Recruitment is coming up fast and you may already be preparing your outfits, but you don’t want to forget about the bag you’re going to be bringing with you every day! Anything and everything can happen during recruitment and you want to be prepared!
Here are some of the things I had in my bag when I was going through recruitment and what some of my friends had that was helpful as well!
Makeup!
Powder + brush
Eyelash curler
Lip gloss
Concealer (extra if you want to touch up during the day!)
Blush (extra if you want to touch up during the day!)
Mini mirror
Toiletries for touch-ups!
Dry shampoo
Mini deodorant
Perfume (!!!!)
Blotting sheets
Chapstick
Mini hairbrush (!!!!!)
Hairspray
Listerine strips/mints (have a mint before each party!)
Extra Items for mishaps!
Fashion tape
Tide stick (in case of a food spill!)
Extra earring backs
Blister patches/bandaids (if you’re wearing heels this will be a lifesaver!)
Portable charger + cord
Advil
Hand sanitizer
Floss sticks
Helpful items!
Slides (if you want to change out of your heels in between parties)
Water bottle (stay hydrated!!!)
Mini notebook and pen (write down notes after each party, it’ll be so helpful later on!)
Mini fan (it’s hot outside!)
Rain jacket/umbrella
Snacks
A small towel to sit on (if you’re sitting on the ground outside, you don’t want to ruin your outfit!)
Now you don’t really need every single one of these things in your bag during recruitment, otherwise, it would be so heavy to carry around! Just bring what you think you need and update it day by day! Taking out what you don’t need and aren’t using is a good way to lighten up your bag day by day!
Recruitment is a tiring but fun process! Make sure you’re really getting to understand what each house is about as you go through the parties so you can make the most informed decision when bid day comes! Don’t forget to have fun though! You can make a ton of friends even before joining a sorority through recruitment! And once bid day does come you can be sure that University Tees will be there for you for all your sorority apparel needs!
