You know what we love (aside from the obvious, chocolate) about Halloween? The fact that it’s basically become a month-long event, which means you can get your holiday-spirit fix regardless of whether you’re spending All Hallows’ Eve on the clock.
Of course, that also means you’re going to want to have a lot of Halloween-themed gear on hand and ready to spook—or delight.
Think your work wardrobe could use a dash of Halloween flair? Well, then—fabulous, because we’ve already done all the work for you.
Now, to start—badges, badges, badges:

Because the nurse buddies who twin together stay together.

Now, the gear in which you make all the magic happen, with a heavy helping of Halloween cheer:
Stay cozy and comfortable in these orange and black long-sleeved knit tees with bat-shaped burnouts by Cherokee.
A little more long-sleeved action by HeartSoul, because fall weather can be frightful. Plus, there’s a round neck and sleeve bands because, well, the fit shouldn’t be.
Skulls, crossbones and hearts—oh my.
Yoke seams, patch pockets and double-needle top stitching—oh yes.

And for the guys:
This men’s v-neck by Dickies channels all of the colors of Halloween: orange, purple and black. Meanwhile, a convenient D-ring and chest pocket channel all of your needs.
Paired with an eye mask that can be taken on and off (and cleaned!) with ease, this Batman-themed scrubs top makes for a clever costume just perfect for the pediatric unit. (So long as your supervisor agrees, of course!)
