Spice Up Scrub Life

This morning, as I woke up and started getting ready for work, I couldn't help but be thankful that I wear the same thing everyday. The stress of trying outfits on, only to find them scattered on the floor when they made me look fat or the color was all wrong was enough to make me go nuts. I love wearing scrubs everyday: they are comfy and they provide for stress free mornings. However, the monotony of this uniform can be depressing for a fashionista. There's no sense of style; every pair is the same despite the color. If you're anything like me, you appreciate clothes, shoes, and makeup. Not only do they make me feel beautiful and confident, but they compliment my personal style. They allow me to express myself without saying a word. So, the only way I found to display my personal style while donning scrubs was through accessories. Here are a few of my favorite accessories to spice up scrub life.

1. Kate Spade Watch- Depending on what medical setting you work in, you may or may not be allowed to wear jewelry. I work in an urgent care clinic, so a watch is an essential. We are constantly working to make sure patients are in and out of there, hence URGENT care. My Kate Spade watch keeps me focused, and it provides a preppy piece to style my scrubs.

2. Pearly Whites- I absolutely love pearl earrings. I admire them so because they are simple, classy, and match every outfit, even medical garb. I got these beauties from Forever 21, my go to store for accessories. They are cheap and they last me awhile. If I lose them, I don't feel bad because I didn't spend a mint. Stud earrings work best for me because they don't get in the way while dealing with patients. The perfect accessory for saving lives.

3. Si Perfume- Good smells go a long way. I love perfume because it keeps me smelling fresh even after 12 hours shifts where I am running around like a crazy woman. I use this roller on my wrist and behind my ears so I feel clean all day long. I try to aim for subtle scents so my patients aren't nauseous at first smell ;)

4. Monogrammed Necklace- If you are a prepster like me, you have your monogram stamped on everything. From bags, to water bottles, to napkins, you name it. MBM is all over my stuff. This gold monogrammed necklace from Marleylilly is classic when it comes to necklaces. It is lightweight and the perfect compliment to my navy blue scrubs.

5. Alex and Ani Bangles- The perfect baubles to boast about. These bracelets work perfectly for me when I want to add a little bling to my body. Accessorize with these and really portray your style because they are 100% customizable. You can get all sorts of charms, including medical ones for those scrub-life queens out there!

6. Whimsical Wristlet- I adore this pin striped wristlet for long days at work. I hate lugging a large purse in there because it barely fits in a locker. I keep my ID, credit card, cash, lip gloss, and keys in here. The perfect way to store your stuff so you can grab and go.

These are some of my accessory essentials. I love dressing up my scrubs because let's face it, doctors and nurses can be fashion forward too!
