I would probably pick...
AOPi- I remember looking through websites a few years ago and I was just really drawn to them.
Pi Phi- I just adore the badge.

That's a hard one. If I had to pick something else, it would probably been KD. I really admire their philanthropy and the fact that they seem really close as sisters.

Actually, a fleur de lis is an iris. It's just a stylized version of it. There's no real flower that is called that.
Ok, now my turn. I know I say this way too often on GC, but I was in a local that became a chapter of Kappa Kappa Gamma. We chose between them and Kappa Alpha Theta.
Having said that, I was very impressed with the poise and traditions of the Theta women. I like the way their letters look together (silly, I know), and I feel like they have a very classy reputation.
I also like Pi Beta Phi. Maybe it's a Monmouth Duo thing?

Probably Tri-delt, kappa kappa gamma or delta zeta for mostly superficial reasons, i love their badges, colours, sound of their names, and symbols.
i'm also a big fan of their philanthropies.

Tough call.
Going just by what's on the inter/national web sites? Phi Sigma Sigma, as the first non-sectarian sorority. It doesn't hurt that I love their symbols.
Going by people I know IRL? Sigma Kappa. There was a chapter at my school, which for various reasons I didn't join (obviously), but in the absence of my chapter I think I might have found my home there. Also, my next door neighbor is a Sigma Kappa and she's very sweet.
Going by interactions I've had on GC? That would be a very tough decision indeed.

I think that what I've learned over the years as an alumna and especially here on GreekChat, is that we are all more similar than we are different and I'd find sisterhood and happiness in any of them.

Oh, good answer. I agree with you.
But when I am flipping through catalogs, the Kappas tend to have the best options for beautiful jewelry or decorative items based on their flowers, symbols, mascots, etc.
Not that I don't love my roses, pearls, and squirrels or that I'd choose a sisterhood based on shopping options.

AGDee will always be known for her wisdom. And, I'm happy to call her a sister!

Very well put!
I have this feeling that my answers won't come as any big surprise:
Phi Mu
Pink and Azure (Robin's Egg) Blue have always been my favorite colors - had Phi Mu been on my campus, I would have been hysterical! I'm falling back on t*p's list, because it's basically mine, too:
* They are our Magnolia sisters!
* Their philanthropy is awesome!
* I love, love, love pink!
* I love that Sir Fidel and Alphie are like best friends!
* The blinged out Phi Mu badge is awesome! (and I love the shape & style)
* I like their selection of sorority jewelry!
* "To lend to those less fortunate a helping hand." is the first line of their creed and I tend to volunteer and help others when I can.
* Plus, the historical angle really did/does mean a lot to me.
Pi Beta Phi
* I love, love, love their philanthropy!
* I love their Arrow pin, and the 12 links representing each founder - how cool! I also love that it's properly worn at a bit of an angle.
* Angels!
* One of the girls at my high school became a Pi Phi, and I had always thought that she was the model of a "sorority woman".
And lastly
Kappa Kappa Gamma
* I love their colors & the meanings - my room at my mother's house still has sky blue walls and an ocean blue rug - with a wall of keys!
* Their philanthropy,
* Their pin, that lovely Key of Gold!
* I would have been sharing this with my late grandmother, whom everyone says that I am identical to. Believe it or not, I have irises in my yard!
I also felt a tug to Alpha Xi Delta, just from their pin. One of my best friends in DAR is an Alpha Xi Delta - I keep daring her to wear her Quill on her DAR insignia!

Wow. Hard one!
DPhiE comes first to mind, because if I didn't rush at my old school and I rushed up here, I'm pretty sure that is where I would have wound up.
ASA, because I love how they are involved in the Special Olympics.
Tri-Sig for the simple fact that I love their colors.
ZTA has a lot that I like from the colors/symblos to the philanthropy
Kappa Delta because they share a philanthropy with SDT (Prevent Child Abuse America).

I think I would pick:
DG
*I like the whole nautical thing
Tri Delta
*I think the three deltas together look so pretty
Almost forgot-
Pi Beta Phi
One of my only good friends from high school to also join a sorority is a pi phi and it would be cool if we were sisters

Well Alpha Chi Omega was the first sorority I ever wanted to join when I really understood what sororities were.
Pi Beta Phi is another top choice because of their colors, philanthropies, badge, and I have seen some amazing chapters.
I cannot forget Kappa Kappa Gamma, because I just love their colors and symbols.

I would have to say Chi Omega, Pi Beta Phi, or Kappa Delta.
