Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

I have about 5 or 6 sets of everday scrubs, and a set for each holiday. We are limited to 3 colors for everyday and we can wear holiday scrubs the week before each holiday.

Scrubs are my life. I LOVE wearing them. The more that you have the more that you feel like you have a choice in what you wear. I feel like if I had an office job, I would have to just buy nice clothes which could get expensive....but on the other hand, if you own a lot of scrubs like I do, that is also expensive. People are always just saying to me, you have it easy for a work uniform. Yes, in one way I do, but if you are so obsessed about what you wear like me, then it is not easy.

ps, does anyone know how to add a picture by their name when you add a post?

Those who upgrade their membership to premium or platinum win a ticket to a nice little picture by their name.

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

Seven sets total, but in the last year I busted one pair pants wide open and lost three shirts. The original three shirts that I bought out of nursing school... one ripped the underarm out, the other got pooped on and knowing what that fella had in him germ-wise, I just threw 'em away, and the white one got a hole in the pocket.

So that puts me down to five sets that I could pull out without doing laundry and that's not enough, considering three of the pants have yet to be hemmed and I don't enjoy rolling them up. By sets I mean top and bottom. Jackets don't really count for me, but I have four. I've just ordered a set ... not really a set, but I intend to wear them that way, have my fingers crossed that the pants will fit 'cause I bought something labeled "petite medium"... we'll see what that is supposed to be.

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

Mine are all pretty much hospital provided, maybe 9 or 10 sets total. I have a few holiday tops and jackets. The holiday tops I usually wear with black pants, and the jackets I just wear over my hospital provided scrubs. They're jade green and sometimes don't really match the jackets, but I don't really care. My hospital is going towards making all the nurses wear one color (ceil blue) and I'm hoping they will continue to provide us with scrubs, but I doubt they will. I'm in the minority where I actually like they way the hospital scrubs fit.

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

I think about 15 sets, but only about 8 that I can wear. The others are from either my thin, or pregnant days.

I'm itching to load up on cute scrubs..but we plan on moving..so I'm waiting for a larger closet.
