Why you gotta hate on Ruby's outfit XD

And Blake's not gonna infilitrate via crowds; she's more gonna eavesdrop on their plans from the shadows (that's the impression I got). Plus, all that is exactly Yang's point; walk right in and draw their attention, and deal with it, as is her style. And Ruby wanted Weiss to be her friend from Day 1, so I can only imagine (aside from the ship angle) that she wanted to spend time with her.
