Is it professional to wear booties or boots in winter to office? Live in NYC and need something comfortable enough to commute in and not have to change out later haha - thinking good quality leather boots/booties :)

Booties - yes. Boots - depends on what the style is. You’ll probably want to change out later as gross snow and rain can ruin leather.

Okay fair points!! Getting a nice pair of booties now 💓💓💓

black booties for life. I moved from NYC to Dallas and I still will rep the black booties gang here even if it’s out of place lol

I think these are great inconspicuous rain boots that can you can also wear in the office. Pair with (fleeced) black tights and dress/skirt.

Oh wow! Love these but a little out of budget :(

Yes, of course. Boots very professional.

Depends on the office. I wear jeans (nice dark wash jeans) every day, so once it gets cool out where I live I switch from my heels to black booties or boots all the time.

Hi ladies! An old chestnut but would still love to hear your advice: i am fairly certain a key senior stakeholder is being difficult because he perceives me as a senior non white woman trying to boss him around. I have heard that he doesn’t like to surround himself with people cleverer than him in fear of them taking over his job, which to me further confirms this is a possibility. What can/should I do? TIA!
