About

Out of Office

A monthly magazine for people who take their life as seriously as their work.

What it is

Blessing at the Bar has spent ten years making the legal profession easier to get into. Out of Office is about what happens once you are in it.

It is a monthly magazine about the part of your life that is not billable — where you eat, what you wear, where you go, and how you spend the hours you fought to get back. Written for lawyers, and for anyone who works the way lawyers work.

Who it is for

If you have cancelled dinner for a deadline, packed for a conference and a weekend in the same bag, or wondered whether there is a version of this career that leaves room for a life — this is for you. Lawyers, doctors, founders, consultants: anyone whose diary runs their week.

What is in every issue

The Cover Story — one longer read a month, on the way we work and the lives around it.

The Edit — a short, considered list of things worth owning.

The Look — what to wear, for court, for the office, and for everything after it.

Table for Two — where to take a client, a partner, or yourself.

The Diary — what is worth putting in the calendar this month.
