    everyone here makes fun of me because I wear these Hush Puppies loafer/slipper things, I think they are called drivers. The heels are all worn out, but they are so comfortable

As long as I shine them, they seem to look dressy enough for me. I'm wondering if it's a matter of time before I get reminded of the dress code. Anyone else do the same? I'm referring to the boat style loafers with laces, not the slip-ons. Thanks again.

    oh absolutely, i have a pair of DVS Castros which are pretty much slippers with a sole and I wear them to work, although my work is business casual...I'm allowed to wear jeans everyday so I do :)

    lately i've been wearing my doc's though. they are indestructable

    I once saw a pair of penny loafers. For real.
    I was swimming in the Great Barrier Reef

    Do they look that bad? I just don't like the whole pointy shoe look.

    dude loafers dont have laces and are perfectly acceptable as office attire

    boat shoes are not

    unless you work on a boat

    I had a job with business attire once. women had to wear closed toed shoes with backs- no clogs or mules. Basically you had to wear dress shoes. I took my dress shoes every day, but hardly EVER bothered to change out of my sneakers :). No one ever said anything. And I'm surprised because this one girl got reamed for not wear hose with a skirt once...

    I have never owned a pair of loafers and I hope that I never will.
