I have about 11 shirts and 8 pants.I guess I have so many because that is all I wear basically.I go from pajamas to scrubs and back to pajamas.I only own one pair of blue jeans and two pairs of dress pants.

Over 100 custom made scrub tops. Several of them are made from vintage fabrics, kitchen curtains from my old house, even valuable vintage barkcloth.

I really enjoy my tops. I have coordinating earrings, pendants, watches, and hair accessories for each.

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

I have about 10 sets of hospital scrubs, and 10 sets of my own. The hospital ones are baggy but comfy.

I also change into a clean pair of scrub pants to sleep in when I get home. My wardrobe basically consists of scrubs, jeans and t shirts.

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

I have tons of tops and 4 uniforms for working at the hospital. I have no set pairs that I wear for hospice because I can wear whatever I want (restricted to purple only at the hospital). 3 full sets of white for clinicals, 4 full sets for the hospital, and assorted pants and tops... I am a scrubs fiend. Outside of work, you will usually find me in sweats, sweatshirts, tee shirts, and jeans and my Crocs. Or a scrub top and jeans

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

I'm not really sure... a bunch, though. But then, I'm one of those night nurses whose wardrobe pretty much consists of scrubs and pj's

Oh, and the baggier the better!

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

I'm embarrassed to say

I have more scrubs than I do regular clothes...not counting the 30 or so scrub pants that I have piled up to take to the cleaners to be hemmed.

Just don't ask about how many pairs of nursing shoes I have!?!

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

I worked with a nurse who had a huge walk-in closet just for her scrubs; everything was coordinated, including all the accessories--- shirt, pants, jacket, scrunchy, stethoscope cover.

I don't think I ever saw her wear the same outfit twice...

I have six pairs of scrubs. I have to have mine made (too tall) and they're expensive.

Re: how many pairs of scrubs do you have?

I have many sets made out of curtains and sheets...LOL anyway right now my guess is about 150 sets . However, I have sets in every size to accommodate my up and down weight.
