Are these shoes cool or will I look like I'm trying too hard...

[Chippednailvarnish]

I might be moving office soon from a traditional "city" office to a more relaxed one.
I'm thinking of wearing 7/8 length trousers, long sleeve t-shirts and a blazer with these shoes. Will I look like I'm trying desperately hard?

I like them. I like that whole look you describe, perfect for summer informal office. I just bought these with the same intention.

Personally I think they're a bit 'jazzy' for the office but you'll know better re your particular office... I like the idea of brogues with the 7/8 trousers though but maybe a little more low key?

I think the white soles will get grubby quickly.

I like the style so maybe find another pair without white soles.

I LOVE them! Get them, get them!

Seriously, they are great. I wouldn't think you were trying too hard. I'd want to be your pal.

Have just bought a pair of silver T bar flat sandals which, I will probably wear to work at some point over the summer, so go for it. If I west them if will be with navy skirt or trousers so everything else will be quite conservative.

I love them, I also have flat silver tbars and the white ones up thread but in red.

I was drooling over these this morning!

I think that is a perfect outfit for that environment.

They're gorgeous, although personally I'd probably feel a bit self-conscious in them. I'd look enviously at someone else with the confidence to carry them off.

I have a very similar pair and I adore them!

I also love them. Your outfit doubds like what I think I wear in my informal office environment (but am actually far more scruffy as I often pop out to construction sites).

I'm not keen on the shoes personally but you are probably much hipper than me and look fab in them!

Any chance of a link to the silver t bar flats? More my kind of thing

But meant to add OP that in general your planned outfit sounds great and not try hard at all.

Love them.

Think you will look smashing.

That looks sounds amazing, and not at all try hard.

Do you think a woman with massive feet could carry it off? I'm very tempted but my size 8's might make it look like I'd stolen my very glamorous boyfriend's shoes...

Coastnight linking is beyond my IT capabilities but my silver T Bar flats are from Clark's, they are very comfy & I feel ridiculously happy in them, As I loved T Bar sandals as a child & my favourite shoes from childhood were a pair of white Mary- Jane's with pink & silver metallic thread running through them.(This was a very long time ago I am 51),

I like them

I love them and they are very similar to some I have too. They are definitely informal ( in a good way) but you are best place to judge the informality or otherwise of the new office.

PS to PP who asked if OK for a size 8 I think yes. I'm a 41 and actually have a couple of similar and silvery pairs which usually get compliments.

Are these the Clarks silver t-bars? I like them, they look like a great option for work when ballet flats not supportive enough. I have black brogues from Dune but can't get over them feeling like men's shoes!

Another vote of support from me, OP!

Personally I think they're a bit 'jazzy' for the office but you'll know better re your particular office... I like the idea of brogues with the 7/8 trousers though but maybe a little more low key?

This is exactly what I'm thinking. I also think part of it is, that I'm (lowers voice to a whisper) an accountant, and have often received looks of surprise when being introduced to people. And that's not in a good way.

I'll order them and see.

Coastingit yes they are

I love them!
