A very niche artist once said, "Who runs the world? Girls." Okay, Beyonce said it. BUT the 2000s queen is right!
Gather your sorority sisters and grab your matching sweatshirts, it's time you get a rundown on all the popular ways sorority girls are celebrating International Women's Day in 2023.
Here are some of our favorite inspiring celebration ideas and events for your sorority! Pick the one you love the most and make your Women's Day celebration a memorable one.
Indulge in a Spa Day — Picture this: calm rejuvenation while sipping Hot tea
That much-needed break you keep talking about? IWD is the perfect day to finally get to it. Treat yourself and your fellow boss babes to a chill day at Face Foundrié (or wherever is closest and fits your budget).
Don't forget to rock comfy sorority merch and get some bomb ‘sisters-at-the-spa’ pics that'll show your whole campus how close you guys are.
Sorority House Sleepover!
Not just any sleepover, make it the ultimate slumber party. You know, the kind that looks like it's straight out of a rom-com handbook.
We're talking popcorn, classic rom-com movies, endless Netflix binges, and face masks with your besties. Plus, if you all show up in matching sorority tees you'll get that perfect cozy feeling of sisterhood and belongingness, and the perfect content for your socials.
We can already imagine your adorable photo dump with a cute caption like ‘Happy Women's Day 2023! Celebrating with the Best 🥂!’
Galentine's Day Brunch — If yours is pending, do it This Day!
If you missed out on Galentine's Day brunch, don't sweat it! It's never too late to celebrate the ladies in your sorority with a brunch that'll make those roadside coffee and croissant girlies in Paris jealous. Grab some waffles, mimosas, and fruits (because they're colorful and pretty.. oh, and healthy), and have fun at the closest park near you. Take lots of pics, create and share Women's Day memes - all of it!
And, why stop there? Extend the invite to all your ride-or-dies - your mom, your sister, your BFF...anyone who's got your back. Let's all come together and live our best lives. Think Emily in Paris but without all that drama.
Do Some Good
Take IWD to show the world what your sorority stands for. We're talking about putting together a killer charity event or lending a hand at your local women's shelter. Make sure to begin coordinating and planning early to truly ensure success here.
If you missed the ball on planning early, no worries. We can help you raise money for a women's charity of your choosing too. Our group order tool makes it a breeze to create your own Women's Day celebration merch and set up shop online. You share the link, we cut you the profits so you can donate, and boom — you're a fundraising queen!
But let's be real, it's not just about good karma. You also get to flex your sick sorority designs and show off your planning skills. What better way to live the "women support women" life than valuable donations for a good cause?
Self-Defense Class — Cause, why not?
Want to make it a badass celebration instead? Sign yourself and your sister up for that self-defense masterclass and get ready to kick some butt (literally). There's nothing more empowering than knowing you and your girls can defend yourself.
Chances are, your local self-defense classes are running discounts for the day! Make use of them and get those endorphins running.
Clothing Swap — Don’t scroll away, let us tell you why!
You know how it is, closets bursting with clothes but nothing to wear. Enter the clothing swap the ultimate get-together for trendsetters like you!
Here's how it works: you gather all the sorority merch (clothes, accessories, and shoes) you like but don't wear anymore (we all have 'em) and bring them to the party. Then, you trade them with your friends for their gently-used threads.
It's like a fashion exchange program! No need to toss out your old duds, because someone out there wants 'em. Plus, it's a great excuse to get together, drink some wine, and try on each other's questionable fashion choices. Throw on your sorority apparel, turn up that ‘X’ factor, and show off a hot girl walk that'll outdo Bella Hadid!

Yoga and Meditation — Embracing the serene life
Ya'll are stressed. That's not news. Why not take the day to regroup a little?
Grab your custom sorority dri-fits and get your zen on with some yoga and meditation. A practice that's sworn by many across the world - it's a great way to de-stress and recharge your batteries. It doesn't have to be intense or long so you don't scare the newbies away! You can kick it off with a beginner-level session and pair it with a follow up activity to get more people invested.
DIY Crafts — Yes, it’s still a thing, ladies!
Don't roll your eyes just yet, because DIY crafts are the REAL deal! You just need to pair it with delicious snacks, take off the pressure of creating something brilliant, and make it a gossip session to keep it light and fun.
Get in your cozy custom sweats and whip up some personalized jewelry, funky home decor, or even a beautiful bouquet of flowers. All you'll need is to hit up the crafts store or your local stationery and you're all set. Who knows, you might just surprise yourself with your crafting skills.
Women's Day Photo Booth
Dust off those formal decorations from the closet, 'cause we're about to set up the ultimate photo booth. Strike a pose with your sisters, and snap some fun and memorable pics with all the props and backdrops you can handle.
And of course, rep your sisterhood pride with your go-to sorority sweatshirt or other apparel. It's the perfect way to reuse those fancy decorations and show off your sisterhood at the same time!
For the *Forever* Gamers
Channel your inner beast mode and let the competitive rage you've held in since that one game of Monopoly when you were 8. We're talkin' mind-boggling board games, card games (yup, we're lookin' at you, UNO), and even some sick video games.
Bust out those PS5s and X-Boxes, and if you're feeling extra spicy, hook up the VR sets. Make it all high stakes with a fully curated premium sorority merch gift box for the winner! Who doesn't want a custom North Face?
Good Ol’ Movie Night
Yes, we talked about movies in the sleepover idea, but this is not the same. We want you to enjoy a fun night OUT (think, drive-in screenings!) with a movie marathon featuring films that celebrate strong and inspiring women, like Hidden Figures or Wonder Woman. Or, feel free to book the tickets for a new release that’s about to become the next box office hit.
It’s Time for a Soirée…
Flex those culinary skills and throw an epic dinner party celebrating the diversity of your sisters! Get your taste buds ready for a global tour of flavors - from Asian to Mexican, Italian to French, and everything in between. Make it a fancy potluck so everyone can show off their favorite dishes from different cultures!
All everyone needs to bring is one dish, their A+ custom fit game, their appetites, and good vibes for a night of soul food and happy convos with their sisters.
