Hospital Dress

White eyelet shirt dress, vintage. Lime green tank, New York & Company. Denim, Calvin Klein. Lime pumps, Colin Stuart. Red patent headband, red beads, and red patent belt, Xhilaration. Gold tone studs, Claire’s Boutique.

I call this the “hospital dress.” My friend bought it at a vintage store in January. I made endless fun of her and it at the time because I couldn’t imagine how she would wear the thing. Although I refer to it as a “hospital dress,” it’s more like a lab coat. An eyelet lab coat. Totally weird.

I guess I made too much fun because she gave it to me (although she reserves the right to take it back). I’m always up for a challenge, so I wore it to work today as a part of the Casual Friday that no longer exists at our company. I kind of like it. And the lab coat pockets are useful. I’m pretending to be a funky doctor.
