Before working at Lydia's I never knew how many styles and options there are when it came to medical clothing uniforms. I can’t help but admire how fashion forward some of the scrubs are. At times I find myself looking through our designer medical scrubs and thinking, “I would wear that.”  And I don’t mean: I would wear that if I was a Registered Nurse that worked in the hospital next to my house. I mean: I would wear that on my day off when I ride my bike to the park or when I’m shopping downtown. So I went through our latest catalog and found some looks that are functional for work or play. Check them out and see what you think. Could I get away with wearing these tops, even though I’m not a nurse? I think so. Would you wear these styles on your day off? Let me know.

I think this shirt is more than appropriate for mothers as well as nurses. What mother hasn’t tended to a scraped knee or a bump on the head? (I’m not a mother or a nurse, so this shirt isn’t for me, but I bet there are lots of readers out there who fit into both categories!)



I love this hoodie. Everything from the waist details to the length to the colors is perfect. Can’t you see yourself throwing this over your favorite tee and jeans, or even as a swimsuit cover up?


Another great item to throw on for a casual look in the evenings or weekends. I hate to admit it, but I like this hoodie more than the ones I already own.


I can definitely picture myself wearing this with a pair of jeans. What do you think?



I’m sure once I take a better look at the items we have in for the fall catalog, I’ll find even more looks that are appropriate for work or play! In fact, Rachel’s already considering purchasing one of the new tops that’s made out of the bamboo fabric she mentioned in yesterday’s post. I think the two of us are on the same page when it comes to nursing scrubs!
