Geez, I volunteer @ a hospital where I have seem more than my share of ugly scrubs! Interested to know what's the ugliest you have seen out there. I have 2 that come to mind:
(1) NASCAR race cars .. everywhere, ugh!
(2) A black and white top from afar upon closer inspection reveals it's a skull and crossbones design .. OK it was around Halloween but seriously? As a patient I would get creeped ...
Personally, I wish the RNs would wear scrubs that identify them apart from LPNs, CNAs or techs. They ALL look the same! Gotta freaking look for a badge that is not always prominently displayed .. but I digress ...
I'm an older nurse and I always wear a long sleeve shirt under my scrub top and also pull it down past my scrub top. Sometimes I wear 2 shirts and both are pulled down below my scrub top. It is cold on my floor so I have to wear layers but I like the look. I never wear prints, solid colors only and we are allowed to wear whatever we want. The ugliest I saw was a scrub top with lips all over it.
Can't figure out how to post the picture but I saw this one flipping through a Lydia's catalog. Flash back to the eighties! Bring back the Aqau Net hairspray to match this monstrosity!

You should actually change into them in an empty hospital room (or locker room), have a picture taken there wearing them, change back into your regular scrubs and give your nephew the picture. If I were him, I know I would be happy to feel like you're "using" them @ work!
