Poll of the Day: Will You Wear a Peep-Toe Bootie to Work?

So I have been seeing the peep-toe bootie every.where this season, usually styled with skirts or cropped pants.  And I always think the same thing — “Cute!  But definitely in that ‘I’m-so-hip-I-don’t-need-to-wear-flattering-clothes way.’”  You know, like harem pants and those huuuge 80s-ish glasses that some kids wear.  The peep-toe bootie trend also strikes me as completely inappropriate for the conservative office, at least when worn with skirts.  (Pictured:  Sam Edelman ‘Wakefield’ Wedge Bootie, available at Nordstrom for $199.95.)

But then I started wondering — is my gut reaction shared by others? After all, peep toes have come a long way, baby…

 

Readers, what are your thoughts? Which newish trends will you be trying at the office this year?

On the subject of wearing the peep toe booties to the office. Never mind the office, I wouldn’t wear them anywhere. Aside from being downright ugly and clunky, they look like a sprained ankle waiting to happen.
