Most women that work in office settings such as secretaries, office assistants and bookkeepers, or women that work in retail, have the ability to look gorgeous at work. They are able to wear the newest styles, with high heels and jewelry.

These ladies get up in the morning, fix their hair, take time to get their make up just right, and then they go to the closet and find something pretty or ‘cute’ to wear that day, with the matching shoes. Then they top everything off with nice jewelry, and manicured hands. If they want to go out after work, they are ready!

All ladies do not have this luxury. Take for instance women that work in the jails and prisons. They get up in the morning and pull their hair into a tight bun; usually they don’t bother with make-up. They dress in the required uniform, (none of which are flattering to women), and put on a pair of law-enforcement boots. They are ready for work – no jewelry, and very few have manicured hands. If they want to go out after work they need to go home, shower and change clothes – more trouble than it’s worth!

Another area that does lend itself to women’s style is the medical profession. If you work in a hospital, an after-care facility, a dentist office or a veterinary office, your choice of attire is medical scrubs, and flat comfortable shoes.

Thankfully the medical field is much less restrictive than working in a Department of Corrections setting. Even though you have to wear a uniform of sorts, medical scrubs are very flexible.

Until recently all scrubs were ‘unisex’ and one color, not allowing for any individuality, let alone ‘style’. Now there are medical scrubs available for women, which fit nicely and give a little style to the uniform. The pants also come in a wide variety of colors from purple to peach, and the tops are available in solid colors or in prints. Even nursing shoes are more stylish now; they are available in several styles and colors.

If you work in the medical profession, get new medical scrubs and be funky or chic– it’s your choice!
