Maybe it's just the long-legged models but those skirts look awfully short - like verging on inappropriate short. You might be better off to go and actually try stuff on rather than ordering and hoping for the best.
I like the gray dress better than the teal one - ruching is often not the most flattering thing unless you are literally the size of a toothpick.

Hi there-
I just took a look at your pictures. I like what you have for day 1. I'm not thrilled with the bubble dress for skit day. I think it might look, for a better lack of a word here, "cheap". I think either of the pref dresses are ok, but I'm not crazy about either of them. Have you looked at some of the recruitment threads on here about what girls are wearing.
Could you wear something like this for second round with a cardigan if showing to much skin is a no no http://www3.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx...Id=71275|71302 or this http://www3.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx...Id=71275|71302
There are some great prices on that site.

Thanks - you can tell I'm reliving my rush days vicariously through the current PNMs! I wish I had this excuse to go shopping for cute sundresses. Also wish I were young enough to pull off those dresses.

This dress above, and others like it, I'd be careful with. That dress is by no means the lowest-cut at the neck as many that have been seen during recruitment, but I think it's borderline, depending on how it'd sit on you. Just my opinion.

Some places to get ideas are threads here, sorority websites (see if the chapters on your future campus have updated websites, then see what the actives are wearing to different events...maybe a semi formal to get an idea for pref), other PNM's you know that are going through at your school, your Recruitment Counselors, and the school's website (sometimes). A lot of department stores are clearing out their summer lines so hit all the ones you have time to stop at and you'll end up finding some great stuff for happy prices.
