ha! I don't think so. Unless you camp out at Trader Joe's...

Just checking. I met a woman who was all, "You're so familiar -- I'm sure I know you from somewhere," and I'm pretty sure she doesn't. But she was wearing those shoes!

I think there's a big difference between "no flipflops or sneakers" and "must wear heels."

Aside from not really wanting to see people's feet at work, I'd love banning flipflops for the sound alone.

Those five-toed shoes freak me out too.

I think it freaks some of us out because we're old.

I've never seen Anderson Cooper get his snark on before, but it's awesome.

I am wearing my nightgown and no shoes to work right now AIFG!

I will admit to just walking barefoot across the floor to pick up something from the printer. But we tend to take business casual to new lows around here. (I'm wearing jeans and a peasant blouse with sneakery flats.)

Are you allowed to wear running shoes to work, LeN?

ita, I'm a faculty member so I probably could wear whatever I want. I do make a point to have professional dress when I teach and for some meetings. I don't wear pajamas or sweats, but short of that, I do what I want.

I can't even wear sandals here because it's too damn cold in the building, especially at my desk (my chair is directly below a vent, and Facilities refuses to let me reposition my computer to the other side of my cubicle to let me thaw out). I'm currently wearing the polar fleece jacket which is always on the back of my chair for when I need to get warm.

Had to be talked into allowing sandals - but really wants all of us in heels.

Yeah, no. I'm pretty sure she can't do that.

Dress codes are weird. My last place our dress code consisted of: no jeans unless it was Friday or you were going into the field. And even that pissed people off, but I supported it, after going to a site visit with a client and a coworker who was in torn jeans. I don't care how much you need to make the client comfortable: torn jeans are pretty much never appropriate if you're meeting clients.

Here, I think I could wear jeans and flipflops every day, but I try to dress at least some better than that. We don't see the public here, but it's a government office and I feel I should respect that.

Today I'm in dark-wash jeans with a nice white t-shirt and one of those "boyfriend" cardigans: really long, in dull purple, and my favorite multi-colored flats. Dressy casual.

I don't think we have a dress code here, I'm sure because of the wide range of jobs. My department generally does dress-down Fridays, but no one really cares if you come in in jeans on another day, if you don't have big meetings or whatever.

I'm wearing jeans and sneakers today.
