As the summer slowly winds down and campuses come back to life, it’s time to prepare for everyone’s favorite season: sorority recruitment! Whether you’re an eager freshman looking for sisterhood or a returning student deciding to go Greek, one thing’s for sure — a good first impression is everything. Now is the perfect time to start planning out your recruitment looks, including accessories and jewelry.
Remember: Looking stylish doesn’t need to be expensive. Although a polished piece of jewelry can make you look like a million bucks, it should not have to cost that much. While all of our favorite sorority TikTok girlies love to flaunt expensive brands like Kendra Scott, eNewton, and even Hermes, you do not need to break the bank to get a bid. We’ve rounded up 12 of the best jewelry dupes to add the perfect finishing touches to your recruitment outfits.
A New Day Valentine’s Day 14K Gold Plated Heart Slider Pendant Necklace ($25)
This heart pendant necklace gives off serious clean girl energy. It’s simple, dainty, and super cute. The Kendra Scott version may have an expensive price tag, but Target’s slider pendant serves the same charm (literally). With the delicate heart shape and chic gold plating, this piece would be perfect for any round of recruitment.
Ethic Goods Gold Plated Rose Quartz Stone Pendant Necklace ($30)
A rose quartz moment never fails to elevate an outfit. This Target find gives you the same sparkle as the Kendra Scott necklace, but for a fraction of the price. This necklace is a sweet and affordable piece to add to your recruitment lookbook.
CROPD Pearl Earrings ($14)
Pearls are an easy way to make your outfit go from cute to sophisticated. Whether you’re going for timeless or preppy, these pearl drop dangle dupes from Walmart give off the same classiness as their pricey Kendra Scott counterpart. The gold plated finish on these make you look expensive without draining your bank.
Altar’d State Dainty Clover Pearl Bracelet Set ($32)
This bracelet set will give you the perfect “old money” look, just like Van Cleef’s iconic clover motif — for a fraction of the cost. With delicate pearls and gold-trimmed charms, this bracelet set from Altar’d State will keep you looking trendy. Bonus — this comes with three bracelets as opposed to just one.
JIANIYA 14K Gold Plated Beaded Strand Bracelet ($11)
A simple bead bracelet is a staple piece for accessorizing your outfits. This gold bracelet set from Walmart will give you that stackable, stretchy look that’s all over TikTok for under $15.
