Workin' It

On-Call, In-House

File this under "For Documentation" purposes. I snapped a picture of myself at work in our physician office to give an idea of how I look when I'm down to business. For makeup I wear eyeliner, eyeshadow, blush, and concealer if needed. I always wear simple, understated earrings. Nothing dangly. And I try to find tops with a little bit of interest (see the gingham and dots?) that occurs in the tiny V-shaped area that shows through my lab coat. My pants tend to be plain, well-cut black trousers (these are my fave). I almost always wear flats, but I admit to getting a little bold in the shoe department. I'm known to rotate through orange suede, black and metallics, and leopard print flats. The old lady patients love 'em.

And that, is my version of young professional doctor style.

Silk and Cotton

This is a typical summer work outfit for me. Keep in mind that I'm wearing a lab coat over this, too. I try to go for a splash of color to poke through the coat, and keep it simple when it comes to pants. In the summer, my trousers are made out of cotton or tropical wool. I'm constantly on the move, so I always wear flats.
