I work in an office-type environment, but because we occasionally have to push carts around, our dress code requires closed toe shoes. To add insult to injury, I live in a steamy, sub-tropical sort of climate. We are expected to dress "business casual" and because of the weather, I usually wear skirts.
So, I need some shoe solutions. Wearing shoes without socks looks okay, but is uncomfortable and is ruining my shoes, but socks with skirts looks bizarre. Stockings are unthinkable in this heat.
Any ideas? :)
Work Dress Code Woes: Closed Toe Shoes?
I have this problem too, but only in the summer; so this is what I do. I wear a pair of open toed wedge sandals as walking shoes on my way to work, then change into my dress shoes when I get to work. I usually wear them barefoot, but you can choose to get some footies (thin nylon socks that only cover your toes and a bit higher, about 1/2 your foot) so you can't see them but they help to minimize sweating.
Another option is to stay away from tight and pointy toes shoes and to get yourself a pair of round toe or square toed shoes----because the more room your feet have to breath, the less they will sweat.
Reply:hmmmmmmmmmm...maybe get skin toned really short ankle socks
Reply:hhhmmm? thats a hard one. sketchers has some really cute flats now and some of them have mesh in places so that they breathe. if you could find things like those pantie hose booties like in you use to try on soes in store those would work. hope i helped!
Reply:Just wear ballet flats they are pretty comfortable and close toe or wear mary janes.

Reply:I agree w/ the 2nd post. Ballet flats are cute, but still comfy.
Reply:Flats look great with skirts! And no socks required :-) Also there are some super cute loafer-style dress shoes out there that, again, look great w/skirts %26amp; no socks!!
