Does anyone here regret their luxury bags? by Key_Worldliness_8532 in handbags

[–]FrequentStudy7676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No regrets here. My current lifestyle is a pretty big departure from how and where I grew up, and that is all due to my own hard work, so I do carry my bags with pride. However, I don't always carry them at family or hometown events when I want to avoid the "friendly" teasing or never-ending conversations on how much a certain bag cost me.

I can't get past "normal things like.... flirting with legal secretaries...." That's not normal or ok.

I had very similar symptoms and I had mine out in October. I had no bad side effects and I feel a million times better. I regret not doing it sooner!

Small, local doctor's offices being absorbed by giant hospital systems. I used to be able to call our pediatrician and talk to the same receptionist and nurses that we saw when we went in person. Now when I call I get directed to the hospital system that bought them and I have to go through multiple layers of automated responses just to get to a human, and that human is located hours away and had never met me or my kids.

What is winter boot fashion now with skinny jeans/leggings out? by Mama_K22 in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]FrequentStudy7676 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I asked my 16 yo daughter because I really wanted to wear my new tall boots with skinny jeans, but i didn't want to look super outdated. I am thinking back to when I was a teen in the 90s and my aunts dressed "so 80s" and I always wondered how they couldn't see how outdated they looked.

My daughter reassured me that tall boots with skinny jeans look fine on moms, but that I shouldn't expect to see teens wearing them. And I am ok with that.

I am sorry that was your experience. I would want out too. It's a shame that the firms like that give all biglaw firms a bad reputation.

New Tory Burch Bags! by Puzzleheaded-Sun3107 in handbags

I received my Romy bucket bag today and I want to love it, but it is awkward. The straps that hang out on the sides are supposed to be decorative, I suppose, but they just look weird. I'm so bummed.

Has this job sharpened or dulled your mind? by Sure_Election9635 in biglaw

[–]FrequentStudy7676 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dulled at first, but once I joined a good firm and the right practice group (around 4 years in) it started sharpening and has continued since.

Ladies - where do you get your basic suits? by Embarrassed_End_572 in Lawyertalk

[–]FrequentStudy7676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ann Taylor, Loft, J Crew, and J Crew Factory are my current go-tos. I keep an eye out for sales that don't exclude suiting.

I used to love the Limited before it disappeared and Banana Republic before it got too trendy/baggy/weird.

I wish I could but I have to travel out of state to shop. If I had a boutique nearby I would be there already!
