Hey Guys.... get to your nearest WMart .... White Stag and Bobbie Brooks have a line of REALLY NICE white pants which are PERFECT for uniform pants. I've been buying them for YEARS, and they're only like $12.00. They have a nice waistband, partially elastic in the back piece, nice pockets, and the front piece of the waistband is straight, and the front of the pants has a "faux fly" and 2-3 little tortoise shell buttons. Nice fit, too. But the best part is that they are a nice, thicker material, and NOT SEETHROUGH in the LEAST !!!! I LOVE them, and pick them up every chance I get. And at that price, you can afford to. :)
I did manage to find ONE pair of uniform pants I like by Landau.. and they are 65% polyester, 35% cotton. These are the only actual UNIFORM ones I've found that you can't see through.
Thanks for the tips. Thanks Jnette & HellloNurse. Going to Walmart for the Bobby Brooks pants.
Agent asked about the definition of strumpet. Here are some of tasteful synonyms:
tart, trollop, hussy, chippie, floozy.
If you don't know the above words, look 'em up.
If only see transparent pants were my only problem. I'm a klutz. One time I sat on something that tore the back pocket off my pants. Didn't notice that my undies were showing through a big hole on my backside for over an hour. How could I not notice?
I'm going to have some great stories once clinicals start.

Ordered my nursing uniform yesterday. Went pretty well. Yellow shirt wasn't blinding, lab coat fit well & dirt cheap. I was pretty happy.
They said there were problems with (ahem) women showing up in see thru pants. So they handed me their thickest pair.
I go in the dressing room & the pants fit great except for one problem...
They were completely transparent.
You could see the outline of the pockets perfectly. My underwear looked like a billboard that said, "Hey everybody, look at the shape of Caroline's big ass." Even my untanned skin showed through.
:chuckle
I ended up buying the smallest pair of men's pants available. Naturally those pants weren't see through at all. I do need one more pair & I want to shop on line (Buying white pants at a store at the end of August is nearly impossible).
Any rec's for pants so opaque that only Superman can see thru them.
Trying to be modest here. Thanks.
