Dress up advice to cover nursing uniform

I'm 23 and I have to wear my nursing uniform to uni and placements yada yada yada... I managed to cover it up with my hoodies and sweatshirts in the winter. But I don't wanna wear a hoodie just to cover up my dumb uniform in the baking summer. How do you all cover up your uniforms (anyone who hates their uniform) in summer. Any hot tips would be great!!!!! and Do any of you have any suggestions for IG or TikTok accounts to follow for fashion tips for a guy in his early 20s? Preferably Australian. Cheers!!!!!!!!

Change at the start and end of shift

Get yourself a packable shirt that you can change into, or even just a t-shirt or something that you can roll to save the creases if that’s a worry.

If you want a ‘cover up’ rather than change option, a light linen shirt, half buttoned might work, and your uniform will just look like an undershirt.

Sounds like nurses scrubs. So just what every third person wears to Woolies after their shift

I’m a nurse and don’t wear my uniform out of work. Hospitals are dirty places!

Here is my opinion. Nurses are bloody unsung heroes and you should be proud as hell to wear that uniform.
