To the Maker of Scrubs:

Whoever designed scrubs needs to be fired.  The end.  Seriously, why do they think health care professionals are shaped like boxes?  They also do not seem to understand that you can be tall AND slim.  Seriously.  The ONLY pair of scrub pants I have found that fit well were some Grey's Anatomy scrubs by Barco in some "missy tall fit" thing.  I know you're thinking, "she just likes them because they're 'Grey's Anatomy'."  True, I'm a fan, but if I ever find another pant that works, I'll take it.  Let's not even go in to tops.  So why am I hung up on scrubs right now?  Well, the OC nursing department provides its students with scrubs for clinicals, which I start in the near future.  These scrubs, like most, do not fit me whatsoever.  The pants have a drawstring, which kind of holds them up.  The top?  Oi.  See for yourself:







I call the second picture, "Where's Catherine?" It's like the top ate me.  Definitely not my best look...or color.  Thankfully, I have a mother who can sew...because I don't do that.  My domestic divaness doesn't involve sewing.  Anyway, she took the top in a bit, and it's better...more so in real life than the picture.  Unfortunately, the color is the same.


 
I guess I will figure out how to get some PINK in there and work it!

  1. I am with you here, scrubs are the most unflattering garments ever created...

    This color is way better than ours were. The maroon wouldn't go with anything and they were straight legged and tapered (cute! not.)

    Get a pink stethoscope, watch, clipboard, and scissors.

    Have fun at clinicals!!

  2. Oh, yeah! I had forgotten about the maroon. Tapered?! That would be bad. I hadn't thought about the scissors and clipboard...Thanks for the tip!
