Sorority Sisters on Your Gift List?
We got this. Don’t worry. Though I must admit, the closest I’ve ever come to buying gifts for sorority sisters was buying gifts for my wedding party…it’s a tough thing to do. It’s a bit daunting to shop for so many peopole, or even just a small number of people that travel in the same social circles…finding something they’ll actually like, and use…and, please, not another t-shirt…am I right? I mean, I love t shirts, but we all know there are enough of those throughout the year. Plus, finding something equally precious for each recipient…no pressure.
Three things I know to be true about most college women…
- There’s a lot of hair to deal with and it’s going to put up into a bun or pony tail most of the time.
- They will study and conquer.
- They’re broke. Send Gifts. Send Money.
One of my very favorite things in college was receiving care packages from my great aunt…with little gifts and homemade goodies. I can’t even tell you what a blessing that was. But we won’t get distracted with personal stories today…we’ve got lists to conquer!
Whether your shopping for YOUR Sorority Sisters, or a college student IN a sorority, you know that loyalty and sorority pride is a thing! They are wearing those colors ALL THE TIME! Events all year long, and well into those alumni years when you, or they, have the opportunity to mentor the next generation of little sisters, and continue the social missions of the Sorority throughout their lives.
This post was actually inspired by an absolutely INCREDIBLE woman that I had the pleasure of working with several years ago…this amazing woman still has very strong ties to her Sorority, and spends a great deal of time with them. I won’t name her here, because I know her job and family life require just a tad bit of privacy.
Again, we all know that they’re wearing those colors, right? But, the thing is…everyone has their own unique personalities…even with that strong bong and sense of unity.
If you’re buying for the entire sorority, or putting together gift baskets, you’re probably going to want to the same thing, or the same type of thing in a few different variations. You could go with Bobby Pins, a Scarf, or even splurge on Hair Towels that you can have embroidered with your Sorority’s Letters and/or the sister’s name. How great will the next sleepover be with matching Hair Towels?
(If you’d like me to take care of the embroidery, please reach out here for pricing and options)
No Sorority? No problem!
