What has Greys Anatomy actress Katherine Heigl decided to wear and endorse?

Medical Scrubs.

How not g-l-a-m-o-r-o-u-s.

EDIT: I didn't realize they made the announcement over the summer...but the "line" launched Feb 21st and the pictures weren't posted here. So it's partially old news.

Are you serious? I know most nurses and doctors are more self-respecting then to wear crap that some fake intern on TV wears.
But I have to give it to her, she's smart for doing this because the area of uniform for healthcare workers is limited.

Oh gosh. Please just go away, K. Heigl

Medical staff shouldn't worry about how their scrubs look they are here to save lives...this whole idea is stupid!

They don't. Crap like this is for nurses and techs (or wannabes) who work regular 9 to 5's in Dr's offices or with kids. Maybe, maybe at some hospitals on casual fridays.

But real nurses and docs who actually get their hands dirty on a daily basis are gonna be wearing usually whatever the uniform/color code is at their hospital for their dept. or job description, or freshly laundered hospital-issued scrubs that they pick up and don upon arriving and change out of and throw in the dirty linens bin before leaving.

^ That's right. My friend is a nurse in the Neuro ICU and she has to wear the hospital ordered scrubs. She got in trouble for wearing a pale green outfit she got in nursing school because it was not approved.

Dumb. Just dumb. Not to mention that some of the 'collection' are fug and matronly. The blonde woman in the center of the top photo looks like she's wearing the Chuck Norris inspired collection.
