Need an honest opinion! Bought this theory dress but realized there is a triangular cutout at the back of the dress. Is this unprofessional to wear to a business casual law office? From the front it looks like a nice sheath dress but it's just this cutout...

I don’t think lower back exposed would be appropriate in a professional setting. Should be okay if covered by a blazer, cardigan, etc.

Super cute, but I wouldn’t wear it to work or work events.

Only with a blazer. You could go to a tailor and see if they can maybe fill it in

Def not appropriate but could be cute with maybe a lace slip underneath or something?

No. Adding a lingerie element to an already inappropriate item will compound the problem.

Why on earth would Theory do this to you!?

I also feel like Theory = strictly business. Get outta here with a cutout! We ain’t trying to look even mildly sexy at work!!

I think it depends on the practice group. I work with big tech clients who are on the casual side, and wore a dress that had triangular cutouts on the sides. Don’t think anyone cared 🤷‍♀️

Thanks for your input everyone!! I ended up returning it lol Realized even I would judge someone for it in the workplace

Hi all, I’ve been taking 15mg XR in the morning and 15mg IR as needed in the afternoon for about 2 years now and it’s helped a lot, however, when I take time off I just feel so lethargic. I’ve read about people taking Wellbutrin as well. Anyone have experiences with this? I meditate and exercise as well, but I just lack energy and almost feel like the same things don’t make me happy when I’m not on my medication.
