I think it’s interesting that you say “many nurses love to wear” scrub dresses. I’ve worked at hospitals large and small the last 7 years, and I have yet to see a nurse wearing one! Maybe it’ll become a trend with management?
Hi Brittney,
I had to chuckle when I read this post because I graduated from college at the time when all women were required to wear a dress uniform at work. We were SO excited when the policy changed and we could wear pants.
I must admit that uniforms are a lot cuter now than they were back then, so maybe I’ll give it another try!
I love that what we start off wearing determines what we think if cute. I love the idea of dresses but I have always been able to wear pants.
