Love them:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308754 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 19:47:29 +0000 Kristine 308754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, thanks everyone! What a wide variety of responses, maybe I'm not the only a little unsure about what makes a shoe casual? I'm still thinking these over, although I might go for patent ballet flats or something a little more dressy. My shoe wardrobe, the last frontier! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308659 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 15:58:44 +0000 Angie 308659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very Euro - but still *bordering* casual in my book. Although definitely smarter than anything with a rubber sole. </p> <p>My thumbs are up though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308644 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 15:48:47 +0000 Isis 308644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I voted "Nay" as they seemed more straight casual to me. To me, it's the eyelets and teh lacing around the edge that give them a more casual vibe......BUT, if only the toe-tips were peeking out of PPL darkwash bootcuts, I think they could be smart casual.</p> <p>Edit: Now that I read the comments, I am on the same page as many others! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308639 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 15:46:05 +0000 lynne 308639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can imagine them peeking out from beneath a dark wash "dressier" pair of jeans. I love the idea of that pop of color, especially if you could bookend with a touch of it in a scarf or the print in a top underneath a blazer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308614 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 15:06:27 +0000 Scarlet 308614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look a little casual to me for an office environment. Sorry </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308550 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 07:48:40 +0000 CocoLion 308550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I feel they are casual but not smart casual. However, I do feel the preppiness makes them qualify for business casual if it is OK to wear capri pants for business casual.</p> <p>I don't see them with bootcut pants, somehow, and I can't explain why. Sorry I'm being really particular without explaining myself too well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308545 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 07:39:29 +0000 Marley 308545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute shoes! I think they'd look great with jeans and summer capris. Sorry I can't comment on whether or not they are Smart Casual - I really don't have a good grasp on the spectrum of casual to dressy style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308487 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 04:49:55 +0000 Alecia 308487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you can wear jeans to the office, I think they'd be perfect. I actually think they could be dressed up some depending on what you wear them with, too. They are really cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308455 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 03:35:27 +0000 Sally 308455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them and think they are smart enough for an office. Not good at defining smart casual etc, but definitely think that they could be dressed up or down depending on what you were wearing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308432 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 03:09:47 +0000 MNsara 308432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do love that color, but I'm thinking more *casual*, too! </p> <p>Maybe it's because I can picture them looking darling with white clams and a bright(or navy) top in the summer. . . and you probably couldn't make something business casual do that. . .</p> <p>They are great shoes, and I'd love to see you try them, but I was addressing the business casual aspect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308423 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 02:33:53 +0000 Maya 308423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still find the nautical, boat shoes styling of these quite casual. Smart casual to me is more refined. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308421 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 02:29:49 +0000 Barbara 308421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the style, but I'm not crazy about the color. If they were red or teal, I'd have to order them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308417 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 02:25:26 +0000 Annie 308417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love them! Paired with the right jeans, I can see them be office wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308406 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 02:05:06 +0000 modgrl 308406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For me, it's the orange color that sends them out of smart casual and into slightly too funky for the office... how about a pair of flats in patent navy? That way you could wear them with navy slacks or dark jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308380 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 01:10:11 +0000 rae 308380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smart, casual, CUTE! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308375 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 00:54:40 +0000 nicoleb 308375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I"m with MaryK! I think you should get them. I love the bow and the idea of it peaking out over bootcuts </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308365 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 00:27:01 +0000 MsMary 308365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they're totally cute. I think if your workplace is casual enough for jeans, these are plenty "smart." Especially because they look v. expensive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308352 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 00:13:12 +0000 Kristine 308352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's just payback for the shirt comment isn't it? </p> <p>Imagine them with bootcut jeans just floating over so all you see is the yellow toe. I think it's the color that I really love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308348 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 00:10:23 +0000 Mo 308348@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not my style, but I don't work in a smart casual environment so I don't feel qualified to answer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308346 Sat, 05 Mar 2011 00:09:19 +0000 Kristine 308346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If they're horrible old lady shoes again you can tell me that too. Sigh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-these-shoes-smart-casual#post-308332 Fri, 04 Mar 2011 23:56:51 +0000 Kristine 308332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm footwear challenged, for some reason I have a hard time determining how casual shoes look. I think these are cute and I love the color, I can see wearing them with navy dress pants or dark jeans on more casual work days (smart casual). Or does the rawhide tie and boat shoe look send them into strictly casual territory (weekends only). My office is casual to smart casual, but I'm aiming a little higher, smart casual to business casual. </p> <p>My poll question, are these smart casual and appropriate for an office? </p> <p><a href="http://www.zappos.com/sofft-pienza-tangerine-leather" rel="nofollow">http://www.zappos.com/sofft-pi.....ne-leather</a> </p>
