Dickies enzyme washed black fitted scrub top with pockets (XS). Scrub bottoms: my own
Today I'm going to show you a less glamorous side of my life as a med student: SCRUBS. As a petite gal, I quickly learned that most things in the medical world are also against my favour: surgical instruments too big for my baby hands, never any small (or xsmall) gloves stocked in lab, hospital scrubs labeled XS that I could take a swim in. Luckily fitted
medical scrubs do exist somewhere and Uniformed Scrubs sent me one of their new Spring/Summer
Dickies scrub tops to review. When I pulled these over my head, I was shocked to see that it actually conserved some of my figure because of the cinched back and flared sides (with side slits to fit around curves better). These are thick enough that I don't have to wear an extra tshirt underneath so it saves my normal laundry from smelling like formaldehyde and provides better protection against splashes.
Though one of my classmates does actually wear heels to anatomy lab, I'm simply using them for demonstration purposes so that my old scrub bottoms don't look even baggier. As you can tell from the photo above, the fit is still loose enough to allow movement but not a bad case of the "boxies" like on the right. I'm grateful our hospital scrubs are free to borrow but the powder blue potato sacks are not the most stylish thing to parade around in. Believe it or not, the blue top I'm wearing is an XS !
