the heels thread got me thinking... what type of shoes do you wear to work everyday?
My office is pretty business casual so I often wear knit/ponte pants tucked into boots, or dress with tights and boots. During warmer weather I'll wear heels or flats. My office allows nice sandals as well, but I don't usually wear them to work.

I wear heels almost every day, but I'm sure that will start changing soon! My coworkers tell me I'm crazy, but I figure while I'm young and my calves still look good, why not?

Flats, sandals, or boots. I dress casually for work.

@LatteLove: haha! My grandma always comments on how often I wear heels and I said, "well didn't you dress up in heels and dresses all the time in your 20's?" She laughed and said she did. I will mourn the day my body can't handle the stress of heels anymore

Flats! Big campus with lots of walking required. On another note, in the winter, I just wear uggs to work and keep shoes under my desk to put on when I arrive (several pairs...I know, very professional, right? 
)

My workplace is pretty causal, so it's always either flats, boots, sandals, and even my uggs.

Dansko closed toe clogs in the winter and Dansko platform wedges in the summer.

Heeled boots, ballet flats, and heels when I gave meetings.
Sneakers when I have to set up and tear down for events.

when I'm not on mat leave I wear runners. Heels aren't super stylish with scrubs Plus I work long shifts, I'd die in anything but runners I think.

Pretty much the only thing I do not wear are loafers/oxfords and sneakers.

Heels or flats — the office is business-business casual for our group. Most of the men in the firm are in suits and ties though, and if you're seeing a client a suit is expected.

Tennis shoes or flats like Sperry's. We're totally casual now, but previously, we were business casual and I'd be mainly in heels.

In the winter I wear mostly skinny jeans and either motorcycle or riding boots or boot cut jeans with Dansko clogs.
In the summer I wear skinny jeans and flats; Sperry Topsiders, Toms, loafers, etc. I am not a fan of flats that show a large amount of the top of the foot though, such as ballerina flats.

I wear ballet flats 99% of the time. If my feet are really cold I have one pair of short dress boots (flats) that I wear.

Uggs or sneakers in winter and flats or flip flops in warmer weather to commute to work. Once I'm at work, I change into one of 10 pairs of shoes I have in the corner of my cube.

@loveisstrange: are your black sparkly Toms peep-toe wedges? If so, twins! One of my favorite pairs of shoes!
I wear my winter boots to work, but at work I wear heels basically every day. Every once in a while I'll wear my riding boots or ballet flats. But 99% of the time it's heels.
Sneakers, loafers or sandals would not be appropriate for my work.

I used to wear heels everyday, but after several years my feet starting hurting too bad. Where I work now, there is lots of walking to get into and around our building, so I mostly wear flats. Sometimes I'll wear a low wedge so I feel like I'm dressing it up a little. This year, I bought some low-heeled riding boots that I can wear to work.

Danskos here too. If I attempt to wear anything else I really regret it!

I need to find some dressier flats (that aren't expensive but aren't cheap either). I just have feet problems and heels or pointy toe shoes hurt for more than a day.
