I must be old fashioned or does anyone else dislike this new fashion of women wearing dress/ skirt and white trainers to work ?

And before anyone says it I know trainers are comfy. So are mine

I’m a repeat offender of this, but not to work as I’d be the only one in trainers.

Is it necessary to pick at what you don’t like aesthetically though. It’s not illegal, it’s just us being comfortable.

It’s called fashion! Look it up

(You probably don’t know that reference)

Also, it looks good in my opinion. Genuinely it is a fit that I really really like.

I wasn’t “picking at” just expressing my feelings and at the same time asking what other people thought. Don’t turn this into something it isn’t please

Have you told them you find their sartorial choices unappealing? Because I'm sure they'd be tripping over themselves to correct themselves if only the poor dears were made aware.

Maybe we should! After all the vitriol guys get for keeping his socks on during sex for similar comfort reasons is ok to be called isn’t it

My style is my own, nothing I wear is for the benefit of anyone else.

If someone likes it they like, if they don’t they don’t - I can feel just as confident in a dress and trainers as I do dressed up for a night out!

I doubt trainers are allowed at most places of work, I have a pair of ballet style pumps I wear to commute to and from work, it's just easier for travel, like women swapping shoes for driving.

I think it looks nice though. Each to their own I say.

I wear smart trainers to work. They're often the only shoe that my swollen left foot will fit into. I can't wear formal shoes (even flat ones) most of the time because of the rigid structure. I'm a lady with size 8 feet and so trying to wear over-large shoes to compensate is nigh on impossible (size 9).

I'm going to plump for comfort over style every time, as I have to do with my clothing choices (to avoid the hypersensitivity of the skin on my left leg - swishing fabric or certain textures cause a burning feeling in my leg which is quite horrific.)

Ladies fashion choices are just that, their choices. We're not there to look nice for other people to gawp at.

It's a sign you're getting well old.

I'd have worn trainers to work if I could have.

I'm not sure what line of work you're in but it's good that people can work comfortably.

White probably looks smarter than darker colours.

Personally I think that womenfolk deserve to see men looking pretty, wearing smart clothes and smelling nice. All too often I see, in any environment, women who have made an effort to dress well accompanied by men who appear to have come straight from a building site.

(Mr KC seems to be an exception, every time I've seen him he has been dressed beautifully

I am really surprised that heels aren't nowadays seen as some sort of gender role reinforcement item and therefore no longer acceptable.

However, I am biased. I think that any footwear which forces toes together to form a pointed foot on either sex is a stupid idea.

I find it strange. I might wear trainers with smart casual clothes but not to work or, for example, on House of Games. With a nice dress, white pumps just look silly. But then, lots of people (especially meejah types) wear strange things.

Incorrect in our workplace. We have some excessively casual men (read scruffy) but I can't recall any similarly scruffy women. It's only male employees I've had to remind of there being a (very flexible) dress code.

Tracksuit shorts with a polo neck t-shirt for a (non PE) teacher? Nope.

Jeans with holes and a t-shirt with last night's dinner splashed down it?

Suits are by far the exception - Mr KC chooses to wear one but he is one of very few who do. Most men wear some kind of smart-ish trouser and a collared shirt. Few ties. Ties/suits are completely optional.
