If you work in an office, what shoes do you wear when it’s hot?

I always find this tricky, my normal heels feel icky and I wouldn’t wear them without tights. We aren’t a flip flop kind of office though! So what can I wear that’s businesslike but cool and allows for being tightless?

Ballet tyre pumps with v low cut footless socks or palmaira sandals

taybert · 07/05/2018 22:43

Where do you get your low cut socks from ollivander?

Ollivander84 · 07/05/2018 22:50

I got mine from TK Maxx, brand is Halston
There's a few on amazon but I haven't tried to recommend! They're v low cut and have silicone heel grips

Primark do these too

Same as normal, ankle boots with socks thanks to the air con Hmm.

Bluesheep8 · 08/05/2018 08:13

Ballet pumps. And regular use of Liz Earle cooling foot spray

mammmamia · 08/05/2018 21:12

Ballet pumps here too!

Littleredboat · 08/05/2018 21:13

What is a footless sock???

fiorentina · 08/05/2018 21:30

Pointed sling backs today. Or smart wedge sandals or open toe shoe boots.

Alienspaceship · 08/05/2018 21:33

Heeled sandals

Ollivander84 · 08/05/2018 21:37

Little - it's my typing skills, I've invented a new thing Grin
That should say footie socks which is what they were labelled as!

Littleredboat · 08/05/2018 21:41
Grin
Stinkbomb · 08/05/2018 23:03

Flat / ballet pumps here too (although I do sometimes wear flip flops too!)

Brittanyspears · 08/05/2018 23:10

Sandals

Ollivander84 · 08/05/2018 23:15

Wish we could wear sandals Sad no open toes allowed

BigFatBloomers · 09/05/2018 00:03

Ollivander would you be allowed this sort of thing?

Ollivander84 · 09/05/2018 00:22

Yes, can just get away with them! I do have palmairas which seem to be ok Wink

taybert · 09/05/2018 06:45

I’ve tried the primark socks and they come up too high. Might have a look in tk max, thanks.

theothermum · 09/05/2018 07:01

TOMS but I work in a very casual office and sandals are allowed.
