Dear Judged
What to wear at work?Everyday choosing a formal attire and leaving for office seems a pain in the ass.  I end up spending thirty to forty minutes on deciding what to wear.  I would wear something, take it off, and then wear something else.  What do you think is the ultimate solution to this problem Judge. Am I the only one suffering from this?

Dear Unununium,

No, you are not the only one suffering from this problem.   Wearing business attire is the bane of my existence. The only thing (and I stress that this is literally the only thing) I miss about law school was being able to go to class is jeans and tee shirts.  Once you enter the firm lifestyle, I assure you those days are done (that is, unless you work at a “hip” West Coast firm, damn those people).  In terms of the ultimate solution to this problem, the first step is to simply accept that you will never get to dress casual during the work week ever again. After that depressing fact sinks in, the next step is to streamline your wardrobe; unless you’re really into fashion, just buy some plain suits and button up shirts, mix and match, and then call it a day.  After all, let’s be honest; there’s really no one worth impressing at a law firm.  Save your cute outfits and energy for getting ready on the weekends, where you actually have a shot of meeting someone decent looking…who doesn’t want to talk about mergers and acquisitions 24-7.
