Peep toe in the winter?

In a different thread regarding peep-toed shoes in the winter, I stated that I thought it was a little bit stupid. I still stand by that thought, although to be perfectly honest... I will probably do it, too, just because I like peep-toed shoes and fashion is not about comfort!
That being said... go for it

I have to admit that I really don't recall seeing too many women with tights and peep-toes. It's really the hose and sandals or peeps that makes me cringe. For some reason it really bugs me when I see a women in a beautiful cocktail or formal dress with hose and evening sandals..ugh.
Peep toes and tights are great together.....however the tights must be opaque so your toes can't show through.
I just feel like the contrast is such an oxymoron that it is ok to pull off. I'm definitely going to wear my new purple peep toes with black opaque tights this winter.
An example via the sartorialist:
I think this girl pulls it off really well. Personally though, I'll be sticking to pairing black opaques with black shoes. So boring, I know lol.

I prefer only wearing dark/colored tights (never the ugly shiny nude! and never with toe seams that contrast or show!) with small peep toes.
Anything open toed is touch-and-go in my opinion - it works sometimes, but I would try things on and experiment and see what you like. I've worn grey tights with open-toed purple shoes before with a grey dress and the look was cute.
I personally consider OP's posted purple shoes (which are DARLING!) to be open toe rather than peep toe.

You hav to shop around, but you can find some without a seam or the seam will be under your toes instead of at the tip - I try to manuvery the seam under my foot when putting on the tights. There are also tights that are "footless" but still go over your foot if you pull them over your toes and heels leaving the underside of your foot uncovered - you can usually find these at dancewear stores.
