$450 scrub top... yeah, I know, for real.

Nurses Uniform/Gear

Published

So, I got one of my nursing magazines in the mail, and I'm flipping through, and see them talking about these new Prada scrub tops that are $450!

So, after reading a little, I decide to go online and see what these are all about - if these scrub tops are laced with gold, or come with a gardener or a maid, or what kind of perk makes them worth that much money, and THIS is what I find....

Who in the H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks needs an UGLY $450 scrub top?!?!

Sorry. Just a little moment of confusion, wanted to share. :D :D

Now I would wear those shoes :smokin:

Would you hop up on a table and dance to the song "Tequila!!" ? Now that would be funny in any healthcare setting! But darnitall I suppose the Joint Commission might ding your facility on the "dignity issue". :clown::jester::clown:

xtxrn - I shudder in horror wondering what Lady Gaga might make a dress out of if she got her supplies from a hospital!!:eek:

Thank God PeeWee Herman didn't get a hold of those :D

Hmmmm.......well, 3 masks for sure:eek:.....maybe some packing tape to hold it all together. Some SCDs for leg wear (need something besides the shoes). Maybe a couple of BP cuffs for a bit of arm coverage.... If two of the masks still left her looking a bit "nippy" :loll: then maybe 2 strategically placed 30cc med cups...(would probably fit those little rock star chicks). Anybody else having any fashion visions?????? :D

Anyone who remembers Lady Gaga's "meat dress" (:barf01:) will want to keep her far, far away from the Pathology Department. Who knows what she might find floating in formalin that could pique her interest? . .. ewwww...

Having 2 kids in their 20s causes me to be aware of stuff I'd really rather not be --- but I just had to see what her meat dress looked like. It was every bit as repulsive as I'd imagined . . :)

If there was some deep underlying meaning to it I didn't get it. :confused:

agreed, it looks like they're getting back to the "heroin chic" look. a lot of the models also looked very angry, but i can't blame them for that one. :lol2:

If I remember right, it had to do with not eating meat (so killing it to slap it on her body was OK???:D) Not my idea of looking snazzy, for sure :)
