In the beginning all nurses wore baggy white gowns with flaring white headdresses, just like nuns wore. However, nursing uniforms have truly evolved over the years and have becoming more and more unconventional, even being altered to use as sexy Halloween costumes. Even with the new styles and designer scrubs, the term “fashionable scrubs” still seems to be somewhat contradictory, though.

Choosing the Right Nursing Scrub Colors
Monday, March 8th, 2010Why the Medical Community Uses Scrubs
Monday, February 22nd, 2010
Almost everyone who works in the medical field today wears scrubs. Just think about everyone who works at your doctor’s office or local hospital. The only ones that you probably see not wearing scrubs are doctors who wear long lab coats and the people who work in the front office and maybe wearing street clothes or “business dress”. On the other hand, some doctors, their assistants, surgeons, technologists, lab workers, caregivers, and people who transport the patients all wear scrubs. While these scrubs use to be all white, then they were green, and now you can find them in almost any color. There are even scrubs that are available today which have cartoon characters and other novelty prints on them.
Nursing Scrubs for Spring
Monday, February 22nd, 2010
During winter storms in the south and snowstorms in the north, you might not be thinking ahead to spring. You may also not thinking of fashion when you think of nursing scrubs because it doesn’t seem like the words “fashion” and “scrubs” even belong in the same sentence. You may think that just because you are in the medical profession that you have to give up on being in style at the change of seasons.
Types of popular Scrub Styles

A part of self-image is how we feel in what we wear. This is also true for nurses and other healthcare professionals that must wear nursing scrubs to comply with a dress code. When you wear something nice, that fits good, and looks good on you, it can help you to feel really good about yourself. Unfortunately, medical employees cannot just wear whatever they want. They must wear nursing scrub uniforms at work. Fortunately, there are uniform designs available that are quite impressive, stylish, and professional looking. Of course, there are also some designs that may be too simple and unfashionable for some employees and they simply don’t want to wear them. Others in the healthcare industry prefer basic and simple or are required to wear that style at the medical facility that they work at.
Nursing Scrubs and Nursing Shoes
Monday, February 1st, 2010
Any nurse will tell you that a good pair of nursing shoes is considered to be a good investment. This is because without the right footwear to support you while you spend long hours on your feet at work, you will not be able to last long nor will you be very efficient at the job that you do. For this reason you will never see a nurse wearing a pair of high heels or ballet flats to work! These shoes simply will not be able to offer a nurse the support that your feet need for a 12-hour shift as a nurse or the cushion that is needed. Now you can clearly see why it is so important to choose the right nursing shoes to wear with nursing scrubs.
