I am in a program at college for Continuing Care Assistant. We need to start wearing scrubs to lab class as of tomorrow. I went to buy some, but I had a difficult time finding matching pants and tops in my size (they were sold seperately). I had to get different colours. I'm now worried that I will be the only one in class with a different colour top and bottom, and I don't want an instructor to single me out in front of the class for it.
Have you ever seen anyone wearing scrubs that are different colours?
I bought purple and blue pants, and a pink and (different shade of) blue tops... Think I would wear the pink top with the blue pants for my first day..
I hate different shades of the same color. HATE. Rage hate.
One would think that, well, a color was a color! It is so annoying how what is navy blue to one company is midnight blue to another and not even in the color palette to a third...
Most my scrubs are hand-me-downs from my sister throughout the years, so I have an assortment of solid colored tops and pants to mix and match. I rocked a ceil blue top with fuchsia pants today. As long as they're clean and modest, my facility doesn't care.
I recommend asking the teachers about what kinds of colors to wear. At my workplace, we can wear any colored uniform and graphics, too. As long as they look reasonably matched.

OP, do you have any friends with scrubs they could lend you? It's only one day, right?
