Oxford vs Derby broguing

[Form7]

I'm trying to incorporate broguing into my wardrobe. With the formality of an Oxford's closed lacing system, can broguing look more acceptable on a Derby? While also considering keeping the formality of color in question.
Genuinely curious where a brogued (quarter/semi/full) Oxford fits in a wardrobe. I personally believe that broguing looks best on derbies, so where does that leave oxfords with broguing in a business or business casual wardrobe?

I know companies are lenient in terms of dress code nowadays though there are some that continue to have a strict dress code. Where do burgandy/dark brown/oxblood brogue oxfords fit in the picture? I'd like to know others opinions on the matter.

Oxfords with broguing don't make sense to me. They could be worn with a suit in the daytime, maybe a more casual suit, and with cotton pants or denim. However, I just can't wear oxfords with anything but wool trousers--seems off to me. And even still, I almost always wear something other than oxfords (favorite right now being Alden cap-toe blucher in #8 shell).

Regarding color, as long as it goes with the suit/trousers, I can't imagine it being an issue.

I got to second the motion on Oxfords with Brogueing being an odd choice, though not uncommon in markets now. I personally feel brogueing works best with the type of lacing present in derbies, it makes it more reminiscent of country/classic menswear.

On the topic of formality, while most workplaces are more lenient with uniform (most simply require standard office wear), some places (like traditional Japanese firms) may look weirdly upon more stylized brogues used in an office setting. Not necessarily banned, but you may get looks if you find yourself in this environment.

I agree with GMcMillan on color. I don't think its a particularly serious issue what color your shoes will be in that spectrum as long as you match it well with the rest of your attire.
