Scrub tops for short, fluffy, chesty nurse

Published

Hi,

I am five feet tall, 145lbs, D-cup, with incredibly narrow shoulders and fluffier upper arms.  Most scrub tops don't fit right.  My clinic is pretty flexible in terms of uniform, so I've been wearing regular tops (mostly Raglan, without the shoulder seam), but I miss the convenience (pockets!) and honestly the psychological feeling that actual scrubs give me.  Are there any of you out there who are shaped like me, and what brands of scrub tops have you liked?  Thank you so much!

I’m not the same in height (5’9”), but I do have the same upper body issue. I wear a good tight sports bra and either Dickies or Grey’s Anatomy tops. They fit my arms and chest perfectly. Have you tried those?

Cherokee work wear, either unisex or men's size. Plenty of room in the upper area. I find I cant wear women's tops at all, and I can wear men's t-shirts ( we have them for our floor) a size up.

Cherokee Infinity. They stretch in all the right places. And they're cute!
