I hate scrubs. The scrub top is tolerable, but the polyester blend limited pocket drawstring bottoms drive me crazy.
Anyhow, many of the uniform codes (usually written with women in mind) offer a white pants/skirt, w/ white shoes option to scrubs. So my work uniform has been similar to my t-shirt and 505 jeans home uniform--only difference being that I use white 505 jeans/running shoes for work, and throw a generic colored scrub top over my t-shirt. Not crazy about white, but at least it's comfortable, with pockets and a fly. So far, nobody has ever said anything. I guess it looks nursey enough.
However, I just discovered that Levis has discontinued their "bright white" 501/505 (possibly others) jeans. I googled, and managed to snag enough pairs off E-Bay to launch me into retirement, but thought I'd alert anyone else who wants to get last crack at workaday Levis as a nursing uniform.
