5 great scrubs ideas for off duty

pairing-outfitsWhat can nurses wear off duty if they were to incorporate scrubs (not work scrubs, for obvious reasons) into their outfits?

We were inspired to expand on a great feature from the print version of Scrubs Magazine, where a stylist-to-the-stars put together two chic outfits that pair scrubs basics with great accessories.

Flip to the last page of the mag and you see how you can forge new fashion trends by having some fun with an extra pair of scrubs (you can pick up your print copy of Scrubs Magazine at a scrubs retail store near you!).

We asked our own stylist-to the-stars Katie Sparks to help us, and she came up with a novel way to put together some great outfits. Read on for her great tips!

See Katie’s ideas (inspired by the nurses from the hit show Mercy)…

    This is a very cool idea. I’ve been wearing my extra scrubs tops off duty for years…looks great with a jean jacket. And my scrubs bottoms are lightweight and terrific to wear rolled up in the summer with a pair of sandals. Scrubs are affordable and come in some great styles and cuts…
