Curious: do any of you buy Spanx? I find them very expensive. I mean $150 for a pair of pants?! Is it worth it?

I detest most shapewear (and I've tried most options) BUT Spanx makes a skirt that smooths really nicely, doesn't suffocate me, and can pull up like a normal skirt to use the restroom. I think it was $50 or so and totally worth it.

I have 2 pair of the perfect pants (I think that’s what they’re called). Super comfortable, easy to care for (cold wash, hang dry). I’m a fan.

I’m in a business casual office and they’re fine. I think the skinny fit ones may give off a more “leggings” vibe (or if you buy them too small), but the straight leg ones don’t. I’m a blazer person too so that probably elevates them a little, but I’ve definitely worn them with a nice fitted lightweight sweater and it’s fine.

I really wanted to hate them, but they’re my favorite pairs of pants, both dress pants and jeans.

Someone please tell me where in tf I need to drop my Hinge location in the DMV area to find my person.

I’m currently a junior associate in a boutique litigation firm handling IP. I’ve taken a depo already, will argue in court next month and by all accounts, I am great at it. But I’m miserable. I find the games with opposing counsel exhausting and I despise writing briefs (even if I’m good at it). My pre-law school job was in public relations and I chose litigation because I like to win, but I’m now realizing I like success more than the win-lose. Feeling lost… should I move to transactional?
