1. Kendra Scott
This jewelry line caught my eye because every girl I would encounter was wearing a Drusy necklace. The Drusy necklace that caught my eye was hot pick stone, from that moment on, I knew I had to get one of my own.
2. Tory Burch
Cute little sandals on every girl's feet. I've seen a range from black to nude to white. Never would I have imagined this was a brand, nevertheless a brand as big as it is.
3. Birkenstocks
Also known as Birks. Not a huge fan, but I did hear that they are comfortable and can be worn with or without socks. There's lots of debate between which is better Birkenstocks or Chacos. Which brings me to....
4. Chacos
Also not a huge fan. BUT they do have a strap so your feet as safe inside this shoe. I've also heard they can be water shoes? The more you know.
5. Comfort Colors
First of all, all of the previously stated brands are HUGE in sororities, especially comfort colors. So you could only imagine how shocked all my sisters were when I asked what comfort colors were??
6. Lululemon
Yes, I had never heard of Lululemons before 2017. I kept seeing girls wearing super cute leggings and sports bras and when I'd ask them where they had gotten them, they'd answer by simply saying, "Lulus!" I kept asking myself how Lulu knew so many people...
7. Patagonia
Their sweaters are super soft let me tell you. When someone first mentioned Patagonia to me I was like "Pata-who??" There's that.
8. Yeti
These water bottles keep your water cold for such a long time AND you're reducing plastic so you're saving the environment. They come in super cute colors too. 10/10 approve.
10. Not a brand, but monogram everything
Car decals, bookbags, shirts, hats, wallets, You name it, it's monogrammed. I'm surprised shoelaces haven't been monogrammed yet. It's always first name initial, last name initial, THEN middle name initial. Talk about confusion = me.
I feel like I'm ten years older than I actually am because I had never heard of these brands. I came to College Station and was in shock and found myself asking everyone around me where these brands came from. I did indeed grow up under a rock. Needless to say, I've been cultured. I own about half of the items on this list. I don't think I could ever own Birkenstocks or Chacos. Don't get me wrong, they're cute but not my preferred shoe selection. I've attached links to each of these brands website if you find yourself wanting to splurge a bit or like me have no idea what some of these brands are.
