    I LOVE those shoes!! I think they're appropriate enough, but I think it's actually whether you feel comfortable in them or not that will matter. I'm a teacher and I'd wear em :)

    As someone who relishes being inappropriately dressed at all times, I say wear them and turn some heads!

    I guess I'm in the minority here. Maybe it depends on the part of the country/world you live in. Small town, not very trendy...then probably not okay for work. HOWEVER, if you're in a more trendy, liberal area, I don't see the problem. I work in a hospital and wear shoes like that on a daily basis (hot pink stilettos with metal spikes today)!!

    I live in an extremely liberal area and would not wear them to work. They're night on the town shoes, not office shoes.
    AGREED! Unless you have extremely open-minded managers--Those Spiked Pink Stilettos aren't saying MGMT Material.

    I don't know, the female mgmt here are the ones wearing the flashy shoes. Us minions aren't allowed.....

    I think they could work for... uh... work if you wore them with slacks instead of a dress. Pants would tone down the shoes, and the shoes would dress up the pants.

    I agree with this^^
    The shoes with the dress for work is maybe too much. Cute nonetheless!! :)

    Not appropriate for a bank. If you worked in the fashion industry or an artistic type of environment.

    I'd wear them. They scream more new years than street walker so in my book i deem that appropriate. I have more questionable 6inch black pumps. And i woiuld wear em. I bought them to wear with a dress so im wearing em!

    If you have to ask, then you must know the answer. No.

    I think it depends where you work...even the city itself. I personally would compliment you if I saw you in those shoes. Really pretty!!! :flowerforyou:

    Also get it. My high school teachers often walked in flip flops or barefooted with shorts and some of my college teachers (at my home university) wear yoga pants and stuff too. ^_^

    I've worked for several banks and have seen much louder and even higher shoes worn in the office. They're fine.

    I work at a bank and some of our personal bankers wear shoes like that. heck some of the tellers do as well. Me and heals don't work so well unless they are on boots. But more with slacks then with skirts. So maybe wear them when you wear a nice pair of slacks instead of the dress. :)

    Enjoy your pretty shoes.

    The style and even the color would be fine in matt or even a patent leather. But the sparkles are just a bit too much. I would adore that style in a red or black shiny leather.

    Not for work. You could try a patent pair in a fun colour if you want a bit more individualism, but to me glitter heels scream "priscilla" not "professional".
