Grey’s Dressed in Blue
Posted Wednesday, April 30, 2008 by Liza Ollila

As you all know, I was patiently (ok, impatiently) waiting for the return of Grey’s Anatomy. And of course I forgot to watch it the first week it was on and then had other obligations the second week it was on, but thanks to the Internet and television online I’m all caught up…and also thoroughly annoyed with Rose for professing her love for Derek, but that’s a whole different blog post.


 

Since I’ve begun working at Lydia’s Uniforms, I can’t help but take notice of what everyone on the show is wearing. Now that I’ve seen all the different styles, colors and prints of scrubs that are available from Lydia’s it made me think that most of the characters don’t get too creative when they buy medical scrubs. Most of their hospital uniforms consist of the same blue scrubs and a lab coat. Of course, that might just be the dress code at Seattle Grace.

 

Now don’t get me wrong, I do think their blue scrubs look great on them and they all seem to fit really well. I just thought that for how stylish those doctors are outside of Seattle Grace Hospital that they would at least want to add a little something extra to their hospital uniforms. I guess between all the personal drama and hospital drama, there’s no time for deciding what to wear to work. And in that case, I think it’s best that they stick to scrubs that they know look good.  


 

So what I think they should do to spice up their uniforms is to stick with their blue scrubs and add new lab coats. The ladies could wear more fitted lab coats, like this one from Urbane. Or everyone at the hospital could have their lab coats embroidered. They could use the Seattle Grace Logo, or their names. Would it be too much if Mark’s lab coat said McSteamy? Probably. Maybe they could just stick to the hospital logo.


 

What do you think about the Grey’s Anatomy scrubs? Has anyone tried the Grey’s Anatomy line from Lydia’s? I love how this top has the subtle empire waist and the big front pockets. What do you think?

The Celebration Continues!
Posted Tuesday, April 29, 2008 by Liza Ollila

 

The Nurses Week celebration continues, and it’s not even Nurses Week yet! But who doesn’t like to start celebrating holidays before they start? I know I do! This year, the theme for Nurses Week is Nurses: Making a Difference Every Day.  And because at Lydia’s we know that nurses really do make a difference every day, we want to show all of you our appreciation by offering you a chance to win great stuff from Lydia’s Uniforms!

 

Last week we told you about the Win Your Wishlist Contest. If you haven’t heard about that yet, scroll down to the post from April 18th, or click here to get all the details on how your Lydia’s wishlist, full of your favorite things, can be all yours for free!

 

And because Nurses Week is such an important week of the year, we can't celebrate with just one contest, but two contests! Lydia’s Uniforms will be holding their annual Nurse’s Photo Contest. Send in your favorite photo of you in your scrubs, whether it’s one of you working hard or striking a pose, and we’ll pick our favorite. If you’re a winner you’ll receive $100 to spend at Lydia’s Uniforms. And with that $100 you can buy whatever you like whether it’s a new scrub top, scrub pants or a lab coat! Actually, with $100 you could probably buy all those things!



So thanks again nurses! And keep checking back for more chances to celebrate Nurses Week with us at Lydia’s!

Grey's is back! Well, almost.
Posted Thursday, April 3, 2008 by Liza Ollila

I don’t think I’m alone when I say that I’m impatiently waiting for April 24th to come; the day that Grey’s Anatomy finally returns to the air after what seemed like decades of no new episodes! Hopefully I’m not the only Grey’s geek who has been counting down the days since the last new episode aired in January. I can’t help it; there’s something irresistible about watching McDreamy saunter around in his lab coat and scrubs.

 

In the last episode that aired Meredith and Derek’s on again off again relationship was once again off and the episode has left us wondering (for the last 3 months!) whether or not the two will stay apart. Plus there’s the turmoil between Miranda and her husband, the possibility that Lexie and George might move in together and the fact that Erica admitted that she might actually be interested in Mark if they weren’t colleagues.

 

So what do you think is going to happen when April 24th finally comes around? Is there a possibility that Derek and Meredith will get back together, or that Miranda and her husband will separate?

 

And who do you think wears their hospital scrubs the best? I think Izzie is required to look amazing in them since she does have her own line (see our Katherine Heigl scrubs here), but I’m personally a fan of McDreamy myself.

(Also, have you seen our full line of Grey's Anatomy scrubs by Barco? If not, check them out.)

Ever had a wardrobe malfunction at work?

If so, I want to hear about it!  Did you buy medical scrubs, only to have a seam come undone at the wrong time?  Did the button fall off your lab coat, only to reveal the stain on your shirt from lunch?  Were the only hospital uniforms left two sizes too small?

What's your most embarrassing scrubs malfunction?  Don't be shy. It's just between us :)
