Anyone here wear heels to work everyday?
If yes, how high?
Is there a tznius issue with wearing heels in the work place especially if it's a business casual office (not Jewish)??

I'd imagine in very professional places, anything more than 2" (unless you're extremely short) would be inappropriate/non-professional.

My sis does. 3+ inches. Se is 5'2" and its the only way her feet hit the floor while sitting in her chair. Otherwise her feet dangle and thats not comfortable for her.

I have worked in very professional and semi-professional cultures. Both places women wore anywhere from flats to 4"ers. I've seen it look professional and non-professional. It depends on the rest of the outfit, whether the woman knows how to walk in them, and her confidence level.

In fact some of the most professional women I have known managed to pull off very high heels.

Flats and low heels are for me.
I feel that a woman in ultra high heels is more concerned about her "looks" than about the quality of the job she is doing.

That has to be one of the most ridiculous things I've ever heard.

IMNSHO, pumps generally look the most professional. They can be low or high. I rarely wear flats at work, although I'll wear them to work. But it depends on the outfit I'm wearing, the length of my skirt, and who I'm meeting with that day.

FTR I'm short. My chair adjusts, so I've no issue being comfortable no matter the height of my heels.
