Right now is the perfect time to invest in medical coats and warm-up jackets for your work wardrobe. Fall is just around the corner and winter is sure to follow soon after. I’m always reluctant to buy a new coat because it feels like by doing so I’m permitting the cool weather to come. Maybe you’re like me and you’ll do anything to hold off the cold as long as you can, or maybe you’re one of those people who loves the seasons and can’t wait for autumn.  Either way, whether you love it or hate, whether you buy a coat or not, the cold will come, so I guess it’s time to prepare!

To make your shopping experience a little bit easier; I visited our product room and found four warm pieces that are perfect additions to medical uniforms. I chose all solid medical coats because they’re the most versatile and go with almost any scrub uniforms. But if you’re looking for prints, there are some great ones in the Lydia’s ProSoft Collection, which you can view here

Now here are my favorite, solid color warm-ups:

Left: Cardigan Jacket from Cherokee Scrubs 
This warm-up is light weight and comfortable. It’s also high quality and comes in lots of different colors, making it easy to find the perfect match for your medical uniform.
Right: V-Neck Knit Jacket from Katherine Heigl’s Vancouver Collection
This warm-up is one of our most fashion forward medical coats. The defined waist and rich colors make it super stylish.




Left: Heart Fleece Jacket by White Cross
This jacket is extremely functional; it has large front pockets, fitted cuffs and it will keep you warm!
Right: Hoodie Fleece Jacket by White Cross
I originally wasn’t going to include this hoodie in this post since it’s more of a sweatshirt than a warm-up jacket, but once I felt how soft and cozy it was inside (you know the new sweatshirt feel I’m talking about!) I couldn’t resist. This top has the word “NURSE” written across the back, so if you’re proud of your profession this might be a great addition to your medical uniforms.

So get shopping, just in case the cold comes soon! And don’t forget to leave a comment if you have a favorite warm-up jacket that I didn’t mention.


Last month I showcased bold, daring prints in my designer style to scrub style post. This month, I chose simple solids in flattering mock wrap styles. The mock wrap style is perfect for designer styles and scrub styles because it’s so versatile. Even without adding a print, this style top can take on a variety of looks.  Check out the designer styles and scrub styles below to see what I mean.

        Designer Style: PO Top          Scrub Style: Cherokee Scrubs Top
          
These two mock wrap tops utilize a rich color that’s perfect for fall- especially when you start to lose that summer tan! Even though both tops are very plain, the simple style works well with the deep color. And you’ll be happy to know that this affordable nursing scrubs top won’t break your bank, but unfortunately the designer style might.


        Designer Style: Aqua Top      Scrub Style: Koi Scrubs Top
          Koi Scrubs Top
Each of these black mock wrap tops add a touch of ruffle to the trim, which creates a nice balance with the dark color. The medical uniform top is also super lightweight so you can be stylish and comfortable.

   Designer Style: Jones New York Top     Scrub Style: Urbane Scrubs Top
          Urbane Scrubs Top
These tops have a totally different feel from the rest. They perfectly combine a fitted shape, adjustable waists and crisp collars for a classy, professional look.


So what are your thoughts on wrap tops? Have you found an awesome style that fits your figure best or do you prefer the more traditional medical uniform styles? Tell me what you think!


Depending on the day, I’ve been known to argue that sacrificing comfort for fashion is just necessary. I’ve worn completely inappropriate shoes for mile long walks, just because they were the perfect addition to my outfit, and this has been known to happen on more than one occasion. I’m not the only one who thinks this way, the proof is everywhere: women in dresses, mid-winter, waiting to get into night clubs; brides in elaborate wedding gowns that won’t even allow them to go to the bathroom without a three man (or woman) team; girls in high heels, taking on the descent of the four flights of stairs in their apartment building. Women everywhere are willing to give up comfort for a day of looking good. It’s not rational, but it happens, and somehow I understand.

Fortunately, there is one category of clothing, where I can honestly say that comfort never needs to be compromised for fashion. That category is, of course, medical uniforms. Any part of a medical uniform, whether it’s a lab coat, nursing scrubs or a pair of shoes, I will stand behind the statement that there are comfortable and fashionable options. And if you don’t believe me, here are a few of my favorites.



Left: L.A. Rose Keyhole Neck Scrub Top in Blueberry & Dickies Sandwashed Flare Pants in Cocoa 
Right: IguanaMed Short Sleeve Scrub Tee in Winter White & Urbane Essential Pant in Steel Grey


Left: Cherokee Flex-i-bles Callie Scrub Top & Cherokee Flex-i-bles Scrub Pants in Black
Right: Dickies Black Label Mock Wrap Scrub Top in Ceil Blue & Dickies Black Label Flat Front Flare Leg Scrub Pant in White



I personally went through all of our scrubs to find the ones that I thought had the most comfortable feel. Out of all of our scrubs the Dickies Black Label are definitely the most touchable. The Cherokee Flex-i-bles are unique because they have side insets that are stretchy and allow for easy movement. I hope you like my comfy scrub picks! And if there are any scrubs I didn't mention that you think deserve to be noticed for their high level of comfort combined with fashionable style, leave a comment and share your opinions!

Just over a week ago, we went to Cherry Street Health Services in Grand Rapids, MI to do a video shoot (so we can show you how your peers are wearing our scrubs each day).  It was so much fun, and ended up being a great learning opportunity and not just a day out of the office.  We actually got to meet some of the nurses, medical and dental assistants that are customers (and fans) of ours.  After meeting them, I have to say that I’m a fan of theirs too!  This group was the nicest bunch of people, and best of all, we had something in common- scrubs!  Now, if you know me, you know that I am pretty excited about scrubs.  However, my enthusiasm pales in comparison to the staff over at Cherry Street. The best part of my day was seeing what each person had on, and talking to them about how they add their own style to their scrubs. 

Tauheedah had on the cutest jump suit.  It was bright white and looked terrific on her.  I’d never seen before how this kind of uniform could work, but she totally worked it!  Try bright whites for a super-professional look.  Try them in jumpsuit or dress styling to add a fashion edge, and make this traditional look a little more modern.

 

Sammy will be the first to tell you that he doesn’t have a ton of options when it comes to men’s scrubs.  However, he uses color in a really great way to showcase his personal scrub style.  During the shoot, he was wearing chocolate scrubs with a lime green tee underneath.  The day before, he told me he wore mandarin orange with a yellow tee. Seeing how coordinated his colors was so exciting that I immediately made him go outside so I could get some pictures. 

Wendy was wearing our green Urbane scrubs and they complemented her complexion really well. What was so great about them was that the fit was so good.  You could really tell that she put as much thought into the fit of her scrubs as her street clothes.

Karry had on a really cute print top by White Cross. What I loved about seeing her scrubs in action was that prints can really show off personal style in a way that other uniforms can’t.  Got a special interest, or feel drawn to a certain kind of color or season? Try a print! It’s the easiest way to invoke a little style in your work day.

Everyone I talked to said that one of the ways they related to their patients was through the scrubs they wore.  Sammy said that he’d love to see more team logos and colors for men, in particular.  They're all experienced at putting their patients at ease, and each said that professional and fun looking scrubs make all the difference in the world. So tell me what your perspective is- how do you add your unique style to your scrubs?


For work, home or going out on the town, I love layers. I’m unsure as to whether this love of layers developed because I’m cold all the time (it seems my body is incapable of retaining heat) or it might just be part of my style. Most likely, it’s a combination of the two. Regardless of the reasons I love layers; it’s safe to say that at any given time, I’m wearing them (unless I’m shopping-trying on clothes is enough work as it is!).

So when it comes to scrub uniforms there are aLydia's Warm Ups few specific reasons why you can love layers.

1.) Warmth: Add a layer under or over your scrubs when you’re cold. Remove a layer from your medical uniform when you’re hot. You get the idea.
Left:Cardigan Scrub Jacket  Right:Nu Dimension Stretch Tailored Scrub Jacket 

2.) Style: When you can’t accessorize layers are the perfect way to add color and contrast to a look. Make your plain blue uniform scrubs pop with a red long sleeve tee underneath. Add a short sleeve tee in a complementary color under your hospital scrubs for a hint of color that peeks out at the neckline. Or add a plain long sleeve tee under a bold print to balance out your look.

3.) Versatile: Mix and match your layers for different looks. Layer your designer medical scrubs one day, but not the next for even more looks. Layers are a cheap way to expand your wardrobe without spending a ton of money (that must be another reason I love them!).

4.) Simple: Not in the mood for matching? Some of our scrubs do the work for you. There are mock layer tops from Katherine Heigl that look like layers but are really only one top! Or there are tops from Koi that come in sets that include a long sleeve tee and a matching scrub top for the price of one!

Sanctuary Mock Layered Scrub Top & Screen Print Mock Layered Scrub Top
Layered Scrub Tops by Koi
     Annie Combo Scrub Top  &   Harlow Scrub Top  

So whether you’re looking for the best way to stay warm while still being stylish (like me), or you need a few new pairs of affordable nursing scrubs to freshen up your wardrobe, layers might just be the way to go this fall.

And if you happen to be in Michigan, like all of us here at Lydia’s, the time to start shopping for those layers is now because fall is on its way!


This weekend I was thinking about how I should start doing volunteer work. I’ve volunteered in the past, but recently my life has been extremely busy and volunteering was pushed to the back of my mind. Now my life is a little less hectic and I would love to start again.

While I was thinking about all of this it made me consider how many volunteer opportunities there are for medical professionals.  Of course anyone can volunteer, but it’s awesome if you have a specialized skill like nursing that you can use.So for today I looked through some sites and compiled a list of places that you can check out if you want to volunteer.

So if you wear medical scrubs and you have some time to spare, check out these sites:

International Health Volunteers
This site connect health care professionals who are looking to volunteer with organizations that are focused on improving health care, disaster relief or medical education in domestic and international locations. One opportunity that is currently listed at this site is for volunteer radiologists at Mount Kilimanjaro

Doctors Without Borders
This organization seeks physicians and other medical professionals to provide international care.
American Medical Association
The AMA provides information on a variety of different volunteer opportunities through many different organizations. Opportunities that are currently listed on the site include: hand surgeons needed in Peru, dermatology volunteers needed in Latin America and Africa and doctors needed in an Indian hospital.
Medical Teams International: Mobile Dental volunteer opportunities
Volunteer opportunities for dental professionals are available through Medical Teams International. Currently there is an application online available for an opportunity to help low-income, urgent needs individuals in the Pacific Northwest. Short and long term commitments are possible.

Nurse Job Shop
This site provides job listings for nurses and also has listings for volunteer opportunities. It provides links to organizations that offer domestic and international positions for volunteers.

If there are other organizations that you’re involved with or opportunities that you are aware of, feel free to leave a comment and share it with all of our readers.

And if you want to read about how some of our employees here at Lydia's give back, check out this blog post.

P.S. Don’t forget to check out the stylish uniforms featured on our homepage. They’re all extremely fashionable and they made me realize that it’s a good thing I don’t wear scrubs because I would never be able to decide which ones to buy!

 


Happy Friday everyone! I hope you enjoyed reading about everything from spacious nurse uniforms to designer medical scrubs this week.  I love how there are so many new things for me to write about now that the stylish scrubs for fall have arrived. Who knows what I’ll find to write about next week.

Now, taking a break from medical uniforms (just for a minute), here are some news stories from the week that you might find interesting:

Opinion Piece:

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend, and if you’re planning on purchasing any apparel scrubs, lab coats or medical supplies in the next few days I suggest you keep an eye on your e-mail for an opportunity to save a little cash when you do.


If you’re a big purse person (you know who you are) and you wear medical scrubs, this post is for you. This post is for anyone who has everything from band-aids to books in their purse, hair brushes to hair spray. This post is for all of you who are consistently prepared, ready for anything and have the supplies to prove it. 

These pants are the perfect example of how function and fashion combine in medical uniforms. They offer a little bit of extra room in your medical uniform that other pants don’t. I know it’s not the equivalent of the storage space in your big purse, but you are at work, you don’t really need a book or hairspray in there.

Here’s a quick list of what makes these apparel scrubs unique.

The first and most obvious factor that differentiates these medical scrubs is the sling pocket. I like this because it reminds me of a more feminine version of the traditional cargo pocket (not that cargo pants can’t be feminine, see these cargo pants for a great example). What’s great about this pocket, besides its feminine appeal, is that it’s detachable. Wear it when you need it, remove it when you don’t.  Either way you’ll still be outfitted in a stylish medical uniform. When you are wearing it, there’s a button on the leg of the pants to secure it to. 

Second, the waist on these scrubs is extremely flattering. It’s has the appearance of a tailored look, but the barely there side zipper allows you to comfortably slip in and out of them, just like you would with any other apparel scrubs (another pair of scrubs with a similar waist is the Marissa Pant by Koi).

Third, the color options available are totally versatile. They’re all fairly neutral shades so you aren’t limited to what you can wear them with. You probably have designer nursing scrubs in your closet right now that would match a pair of these pants perfectly.

So if you’re a big purse person, you might want to consider trying out a pair of these Urbane pants. Select the most important items to get you through your workday, fill up your pockets and get your day started!

So what do you think about these scrubs? Is lots of pocket space important to you or could you get through your day with none? And do you like how Urbane combines fashion and function on these scrub uniforms or would you have done it differently?


For last month’s Designer Style to Scrub Style post I showcased three sets of medical uniforms and designer outfits that shared similar shapes and styling. This month my focus has shifted. I’ve found three stylish uniforms which borrow their enticing color palettes and patterns from high end designer tops. I’m personally trying to add more colors and patterns to my wardrobe. It would be great if I could do it by purchasing affordable women’s uniforms like you can!

Although each of these tops features a daring print, they all have a slightly different appeal, which is what makes these stylish uniforms so special.

The first pair consists of a scrub top by Los Angeles Rose and a designer top by Sweet Pea. The muted color palette combined with the shapes on each top creates a subtle style. 

                 Designer Style: Sweet Pea       Scrub Style: LA Rose
              Ariana Kimono Scrub Top


The second pair consists of a Landau Medical Scrubs Top and a designer top by Shoshanna. The vibrant bursts of color on these two tops create a more fun, outgoing look. And the two are just another example of how designer nursing scrubs are keeping up with high end styles.

                Designer Style: Shoshanna          Scrub Style: Landau
              


The last pair consists of a second top from Los Angeles Rose and a designer top from Cynthia Steffe. To me, these prints seem to combine trendy style and sophisticated style. I think it’s the baroque patterns that make them seem so sophisticated. 

                  Designer Style: Cynthia Steffe  Scrub Style: LA Rose
             


Have you noticed any other color palettes, prints or styles that are showing up in the new fall medical uniforms and also in your favorite clothing stores? If you do, e-mail me pictures or links to these styles and I’ll feature them in the next month’s Designer Style to Scrub Style post.


Happy Friday everyone! Another busy week filled with stylish medical scrubs and discount medical uniforms has passed by again. We’ve been busy working on all sorts of different projects here at Lydia’s. One thing we did this week is add the Share This button to the blog. If you haven’t already seen it, it’s that green button at the bottom of each post. Here’s an example of how you could use it: Say there’s a blog post featuring affordable women’s uniforms. You decide that these scrubs are a great deal and you want to tell your best friend from work about the deal.  This button makes it simple, just click on it and you can share the post through e-mail or social networking sites. Now you and your co-worker both know about the great deal on affordable women’s uniforms. Test it out when you have a spare minute.

Now here’s the news from the week:

I also came across this opportunity:

Have a wonderful weekend everyone. And if you’re subscribed to Lydia’s Uniform’s e-mail list, keep your eyes open for a great deal that will be coming your way tomorrow!


Everyday our office here at Lydia's Uniforms is full of cute apparel, and I’m not just talking about the stylish uniforms. The five other members of my department have great taste and it always shows in their clothing. I inquired into these fashionable minds to see what they love about the new scrubs for fall and they told me which Cherokee Jacketstylish uniforms are their favorites.

Leesa:
My favorite product is the new Flex-i-bles print jacket.  The colors in the print are my favorite combination for this fall - simply spectacular!  Flex-i-bles has always been one of my favorite lines because of the knit spandex, roll down waistband on the pants.  The jacket has this same coordinating knit spandex inserted into the sides.  Ooohh...so comfy!

Lindsey:

I really like the new Koi Vanessa Prints. The scrubs have retro patterns with really trendy styling. I don’t think they look like scrub tops at all!

New Koi Scrubs


Rachel:
I like the new Bamboo line by Iguana Med. It’s super soft and very light, plus they’ve taken the sporty styling to a new level by adding some feminine details (i.e. gathered seams, colors match what’s hot for fall).


Amanda:

I would have to say Katherine Heigl Woodstock is my new favorite collection.  The colors are bright and pretty, and I love the hippie vibe that you get from these scrubs!

Nicole:
The Swirls and Whirls Contrast Sash Mock Wrap Scrub Top by Dickies is my favorite. I love the style with the tie back and especially love the color combination of aqua blue, off white and chocolate brown.  This top will go great with the Back Elastic Cargo Scrub Pants in Chocolate, which are an everyday favorite. 

Personally, it’s hard for me to choose a favorite. There is definitely something to love about each of the choices above, whether it’s the fashion forward style (Katherine Heigl’s Woodstock line!) or an extra touch of comfort (Cherokee Flex-i-bles!). I think that in addition to all of the stylish uniforms shown above, the new Landau Medical scrubs are some of my favorites. This style top is flattering on different body types and I adore the bright prints and patterns.

So now that you've seen the designer medical scrubs that we love, which new scrub uniforms do you like best? Do you agree with one of us or is there a fabulous new item that we didn’t mention? Share your opinion; we would love to hear it!


Happy Friday everyone! I would like to start this post off by congratulating Janet, the winner of yesterday’s contest. Janet was the first person to comment on yesterday’s post and she correctly matched the four medical nursing uniforms with their brands. I’ll be sending out Janet’s free gift today! In addition, Sherry and Stephanie also left comments correctly matching the stylish uniforms with their brands. Since today is Friday and we’re feeling generous here at Lydia’s, I’ll be sending them free gifts as well. Congratulations ladies; I’m glad that your expertise on designer nursing scrubs paid off!

Now here’s the news from the week:

Working at Lydia’s Uniforms allows me to give you insight on what’s new, stylish and popular in the world of medical uniforms. But as much as I like to give my opinion, I also love hearing yours because you wear medical uniforms everyday. You know how they fit, hold up and really look. So today I’m taking a break and sharing with you the opinions of two customers who tested out two different medical uniforms from Lydia’s.  One customer reviewed her Cherokee Medical Scrubs nursing uniforms and the other reviewed her It’s Happy Bunny medical uniform.  See what they had to say.

Have you received any compliments on them?
Many compliments from all my co-workers, and even people that work in management have said nice things about them.


Hopefully these reviews are helpful for anyone who wants to purchase Cherokee Medical Scrubs or new nurse uniforms from It’s Happy Bunny. Thanks to Barbara and Beth for sharing their knowledge on their medical uniforms. And if anyone has helpful insight regarding these particular medical uniforms, leave a comment and share your thoughts!

P.S. Barbara and Beth both volunteered their opinions to Lydia’s via MySpace. If you’re on MySpace come find Lydia’s Uniforms; I would love to add you as a friend! It’s a great place to interact with Lydia’s, ask questions, leave comments and communicate with others who wear medical uniforms.


There are certain stores that I love. I check the web sites of these stores frequently, impatiently waiting for new looks or products to arrive. I get excited when new products show up and even more excited if it happens to be something I need or want.  If you love to buy medical uniforms and if you’re anything like me you probably do this at LydiasUniforms.com. So for those of you who are always on the lookout for new stylish uniforms, I thought you might appreciate an update on the new medical uniforms that were just added to the web site today. All the new pieces are Cherokee scrubs. The new scrubs include three styles in a brand new color as well as six new prints!

The new color is surgical green. Some of the most popular scrubs in the Cherokee Authentic Workwear line are now available in this color including: the flare leg scrub pants, crew neck warm-ups and two pocket scrub tops. So if you love green (like me!) or if you’re required to wear this color for work, now you can get it from the brand that was voted most popular online, Cherokee.

And for those of you who prefer prints there are new Cherokee scrubs featuring fun and colorful designs. I think I like the new Venus print best because it incorporates some of my favorite colors. I also really like the Daisy Game print. What do you think?

           

Clockwise from top left corner: Wild Blossoms Two Pocket Scrub Top, Venus Two Pocket Scrub Top, The Daisy Game Two Pocket Scrub Top, Clover Dance Two Pocket Scrub Top, Tattoo Cute Two Pocket Scrub Top, Bugs and Kisses Two Pocket Scrub Top

So if you’re a fan of Cherokee Medical Scrubs, be sure to check out the new styles that are available and see if there are any new medical uniforms that you want or need. Or if you’ve never worn Cherokee scrubs before, now would be the perfect time to find out why they’re a customer favorite. And don’t worry; it won’t be long before all the new stylish uniforms are available for fall. I’ll keep you updated!


The fall catalog is rapidly approaching. Before the new fall apparel scrubs are here for good and the summer apparel scrubs disappear, I wanted to take one more look at how some of the summer medical scrubs were influenced by designer style. Check out the three different looks I found.

First I compared these two looks which both have square necklines. The thing I love about the square neckline is the way it elongates the neck; this style is flattering on almost anyone. From lightweight summer dresses to evening apparel to basic cotton tees and of course to designer medical scrubs; this simple shape is everywhere. I hope we see more scrubs in this flattering style soon!

                     Designer Style: Milly                 Scrubs Style: Koi
           




The next look consists of ruffle trim, which adorns the neckline of these two bright white tops. In general I'm a bit wary of ruflles. I own one ruffle trim top and it came in and out of my closet many times before I decided to wear it out of the house. Once I finally did wear it I actually really liked it. It seems that a bit of ruffle added on the trim of a simple top or dress can take the look from plain to exciting. It definitely works on this stylish medical scrubs top by Koi.    
 
                         Designer  Style: INC               Scrubs Style: Koi
                




The last look, the twist tie waist, is really unique. I love that LA Rose made this style apparel scrubs top. Although I've seen it on dresses, I've never seen this style on a top before, especially not a medical scrubs top. I think this scrubs top is truely one of a kind! Now the only problem is finding this top for myself in a style that's not scrubs style.

What do you think about these designer medical scrubs? Do they suit your scrubs style? Are there other trends or styles that you hope to see in the future when you buy medical scrubs?
