Ballet flats seem to be back in style, and I'm trying to decide if they're office-appropriate. I loved wearing them about ten years ago, but certainly didn't miss them when they went out of fashion. Now that they're reappearing, though, I'm wondering if I should get another pair or two. Are you wearing them?

I never stopped wearing them. They are appropriate for the office.

They’ve always been appropriate for the office. I regularly wore them at my business professional clients office. There were quite a few of us in my old office that wore the same Cole haan ballet flats daily.

Even luxury brands have ballet flats, and have generally always been work appropriate imo.

Yeah, I wear them all the time. I’ve also seen kitten heels become super popular which is great because they’re comfy. That could be another option if you’re on the fence about ballet flats

I have a pair but don't wear them often these days. I think they're perfectly appropriate though.

Curious what makes you question whether they are appropriate for the office? I feel like business casual has become much more relaxed post-pandemic, even fully open sandals seem to be appropriate now

I’m kind of loving the comeback! I picked up a simple black pair recently and they go with almost everything I wear to work.
