Is it appropriate to wear fish-net stockings to your staff Christmas party if they are with a conservative yet flattering outfit?

I would probably say it is never appropriate to wear fishnet stockings (unless they are a very small net), but I haven't seen the rest of the outfit.
"Fishnets have made their way out of the shadowy darkness of clubs and seedy motels, and into the glaring light of modern urban women's wear.
There are a variety of factors that influence the appropriateness of fishnet stockings, including the size of the mesh, the shade of the stocking, the footwear and clothing it is worn with, and the condition of the stocking.
As a general rule, fishnet stockings with a mesh any greater than the standard tiny holes (approximately 1/16th inch wide when worn) are inappropriate for everyday, formal, and (especially) professional attire.
If you're going to buy large-mesh fishnets - which I have to say I don't particularly advise -reserve them for funky or punky club-wear." (http://www.filly.ca/taste_and_style/wear_it_with_style/accessories/How_To_Wear_Fishnets_With_Style.asp)
Still debating if the red-necks from my work will see it the same way ... maybe the solid stockings are the way to go.
