Neuroscience Fashion!

Because I'm studying for Neuro tomorrow and currently my "fashion" consists of yoga pants, sorority tshirt, oversized W&M sweatshirt, and a W&M baseball hat(although it DOES have the feathers!) I decided to post a few things I found during my neuro inspired study break:
A Brain Hat!

Or for something that still says "Braniach," but a little more subdued...



Neuron Axon Terminal Earrings! (I'd actually totally wear these!)


Or if you would like to follow the AAMC goals of Alturism and Duty and forget the science part:

Shopping Study Break!

Because I don't want this blog to be a shrine to my closet here are a few of my favorite things during my online shopping study break! (however I DID not purchase- I am a girl on a budget!)
I love the braided chains that are popping up everywhere! This is currently being sold on Anne Taylor Loft's website for 34.50. But wait a week and they'll have a 20 or 40% off sale!

Love the side bow thing and the fun print. On Sale on Anthropologie.com for 99.95, normally 198 (because I don't look at anything at Anthropologie that isn't on sale)
I like the masculine-feminine contrast, and the buckle detail makes it more special! But I would NEVER buy them- Even on sale on Jcrew.com they're $229.99!!! (normally 325)

Now back to Neuro!

Bangle from my mom!
Says "A daughter is a special gift, a blessing from above; the joy and friendship never end and least of all the love."
Sentimental and not exactly chic... but cute and goes well with the outfit!

 
Fellow med students wearing our hard hats for our first glimpse at the new building!

*Style note on these lovely ladies! (from left to right)*
Alison is repping for her home town wearing her VCU spirit T-shirt as the team climbs to the top of March Madness!
Charlene is Stylish as always sporting a lovely trench, green T, fun beaded necklace, skinny jeans, and an adorable pair of rubber loafers that have green and blue stripes (cute enough to note even though they aren't in the picture!)
Angelica is the last on the right sporting a button up tunic with a jean vest, grey leggings, Flat over the knee boots and a leather(possibly pleather since she's vegetarian?) jacket.

And since I'm making a bid deal out of med student life! A minute to describe the AMAZING new EVMS building!
Not only will we have a great outdoor area and garden, we will have SO many more awesome teaching tools!
There is going to be a 3D room to view 3D projections of internal organs and other medically relevant things, a whole new clinical skills center with doctors office and hospital style patient rooms, and a surgical skill centers that will be incredible. The surgical skills area will have manikin arms for us to practice IVs on, pretend operating rooms with manikin patients that can be programmed to do different things, and a "Cave" with interactive avatar nurses that respond to what decisions you make during the surgery!!!!
All around a GREAT time to be a med student!!!!!
