I work in a school, so sandals are okay, but flip flops are not. I'm loving my sandals, since my feet are already swelling at only 31 weeks!

I teach so I am on my feet all day. Comfort is my top priority, particularly while pregnant. I never wear flip flops to work but have no issues with peep toe flats or nice sandals.

We can wear anything as long as it's not dirty or sweatpants/pamajas.

I'm wearing a company t-shirt, jeans and flip flops today and am perfectly acceptable for my job. It depends on what kind of job you have I wouldn't want my banker to be wearing flip flops, or a server at a restaurant though

I don't have an issue with dressier sandals. I'm in sales and a lot of my customers are very casual, so I don't mind wearing some nice gladiators to see them.

I'd never wear flip flops though! MIL is an EA and they got a letter sent out saying what was appropriate, and she was SO offended.. so she didn't listen to it and kept wearing her flip flop/capri/tank top combo every day. lol

I wear flip flops to work as soon as the weather gets above 65 degrees. We don't see customers/clients in my office so, it is appropriate. We also wear tee shirts and shorts in the summer.

When I go onsite, I wear closed toe shoes.

@.twist.: Haha agree!

I think it depends on the work environment. My office is very casual (everyone wears jeans every day), so I wear flip flops a lot in the summer. In the winter I mostly wear flats. I would get weird looks if I wore heels to work!

I work in an incredibly casual environment (advertising) so jeans are the norm most days - and I wear flip flops too!

@lawbee11: yes! if I ever dress up at work people ask if I was at an interview! ha.... actually - i did have a secret interview and I had to change in the car on the way to it from my office.

@lawbee11: Haha same. I get a lot of 'why are you so dressed up??' if I wear a dress or heels!

I wear sandals to work but they are much dressier than a casual flip flop. I would not wear flip flops ever.

absolutely unacceptable in my office, but my office is somewhat conservative. no peep toes, no sandals. i wear ballet flats almost every day and throw on heels if i have a meeting.

I can wear flip flops and have seen others wear them. I don't like the flopping noise they make so I'm adding some ballet flats to my shoe collection.

Some departments are business causal but in my department, we are mainly in the labs so we can wear whatever we want (jeans, graphic tees, etc.) I do have lab friendly shoes that I change into since flip flops aren't very safe in the lab.

Flip flops are a no no in my office. Open toe shoes are fine though.

I think I can wear pretty much anything I want here, but I personally probably wouldn't wear flip flops. The software industry is funny, people on the business side (sales, marketing, etc) all dress in business/business attire. But I'm in engineering and people tend to wear all sorts of stuff - shorts, graphic tees, flip flops, etc.

We can wear whatever, but I second PPs: if you show your toes, you need to keep your nails looking nice!!

Nobody gives a crap at my work! I'll wear sandals anytime and nicer flip flops on Fridays.

No flip flops. I think open toed heels/platforms are fine

We don't really have a dress code - some teachers wear sweats (and these are not PE teachers who are supposed to wear athletic clothes) and lots wear flip flops. I do once in a while, usually if I'm wearing a maxi dress and it's really hot. In the beginning of the year, I dress more professionally and only wear jeans on Fridays, but as the school year goes on, I get lazy and more and more casual. However, I never wear sweats. I can't believe some teachers do!
