Stockings with strappy shoes?

My dear friend emailed this photo to me to see if I think she could get away with stockings with these strappy shoes she has bought to attend her daughter's wedding. No she isn't planning on wearing a short stocking. It was just to give me an idea of how the toes look with a stocking on. Even though stockings make our legs look much better I really think no stockings is the way to go. Just wondering what you think and would love to hear your opinion.
