RNs used to have to really wear aspiffy uniform. Erin took this at the Boone
County Museum. She wears scrubs...sort of
PJ looking pants and smock. The RNs of long
ago wore a white dress and a hat on their head
as they helped deliver babies.
Teachers could not wear pants when I started
teaching. We could then wear a 'pants suit' if
it had a jacket to match. Oh, times have changed,
now on Fridays we wear jeans.

to me this is how a nurse should look.
I was not an RN but an LPN and I never wore scrubs until 7 yrs ago. I took great pride in my white uniform and kept my shoes white and shining. Only one job I worked on required me to wear a cap but I didn't mind at all.
It was also fun when I could finally wear scrubs!
Yes times have really changed and I miss the good ole days!
My mother was an RN and wore a uniform like that, and I can remember her spending a lot of time starching and ironing the uniforms and her cap every week.
I do believe we lose some respect when we dress casually but I love to dress in loose comfy clothes. I buy everything 2 sized too big.

What wonderful posts, I have just loved reading them - missed being able to pop by these past few days
Remember those blouses and dresses from the 40's? The ones that made for curves and lines? Every woman looked lovely in those clothes. I wouldn't dressing like that now and again - but I do love my jeans too.
