Scrubs

I have yet to find a pair of scrubs that I like on myself....

There is the constant battle between 'what fits' and 'what looks good'.

I personally do not like the design of scrubs for women. The scrubs that like to do this overlapping half tunic V-neck thing, others that half lace and draw strings to tighten up your tummy.

What a sexy nurse you are!

Of course the creators of these designs fail to consider that we all don't want to look this way.

The most obnoxious scrubs I have ever seen are the ones with designs on them, floral prints, care bears, Betty Boop among the other countless number of cartoon character prints out there.

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the people who dress this way. I have a hard enough time convincing people I am not a nursing student fresh out of high school. I do not need anything to make me look younger.

In fact, I bought some glasses to wear to work to make me look older and smarter. It is amazing what taking off your contacts and placing frames on your face can do to your perceived competence!

On the other hand, it is hard to be professional when a simple pair of scrubs are huge!! Even an extra small drowns me.

The only pair of scrubs that really fit me are my Halloween scrubs, and I am for sure not wearing those all year round.

"Look at that freak wearing the Gothic looking scrubs?" the people would point and laugh at me for sure.

I am sure that won't pass.

A big "No Go."

So I am on this endless search for professional looking scrubs that are in my size!
