For Christmas, keep it simple. As you might have figured out thus far from my comments, dressing for Christmas is about wrapping traditional looks in a modern package -- but with shoes, the choice is pretty easy. Keep them black, classy, and simple. If you want to make them festive, pair a traditional pair of black loafers with a shocking (red?) pair of argyle or patterned socks. But keep the shoes simple.

Considering I’m not an expert in fashion… What’s wrong with the first pair of shoes? Both pairs look pretty similar to me.
There’s a lot with those shoes that most people would find issue with, though note that those are still fairly conservative. The main issue is the toe — moc toes designed in that way are made to look “pointy” (something you can’t see easily in this picture), which looks pretty bad and reeks of Ed Hardy-esque guido style. Beyond the toe, perforated leather is questionable (ESPECIALLY like on that shoe, where it’s faked and only on parts of the shoe). Loafers are okay, but a design like this is also really not good for loafers, as it makes them look kinda cheap and eurotrash-y.
It’s hard to explain, but the best thing to do is keep things traditional, at least for the holidays. A simple cape-toe lace-up oxford in a good black leather is always fashionable.
I tend not to care what guys are wearing on there feat. I think i would only notice if they came in without shoes, or were wearing high heals.
