I'm a lawyer in a conservative firm and got this mad cool tee I'm planning to wear to the office. My wife told me it might not be appropriate, I quickly Rihanned the 'ho and will def wear it. Do you think that's a mistake?


If it helps I work in M&M or M&A or something. Shout out to all my hommies at the office!

If you are in M&A its fine. Patent or tax law? Don't take the risk. I suggest pairing it with a black suit, single breasted though.

You defile the good name of conservative business dress.

No. It is not appropriate. I would not be happy if one of my associates showed up dressed like that.

Because the shirt could be interpreted as a threat to any snitches working at your firm, I would instead wear a "Stop Snitchin' " T-shirt.

Here's what Zazzle.com says about the "Snitches Get Stitches" T shirt:

The classic heavyweight t-shirt. Tagless design for ultimate comfort. Pre-shrunk, 6.1 ounce 100% cotton. Double-needle stitched bottom and sleeve hems. Loose, classic fit, wears well on anyone. (note: Brown version has a tag). Imported.

Proof that it will wear well on anyone. So it should be ok for interview.

It would only be appropriate if you worked in criminal defense law.

It's always appropriate for the annual company picnic if you work for a criminal defense outfit.
