I like these picture for the flowing looseness of the skirts and pants, yet I see nothing like them in retail. These are not exactly pencil skirts, they seem looser and made with a soft material. Is it jersey or silk? Anyone seeing anything like this out there? (below designer of course )</p> <p>Angie, it is trendy so it won't last? Not worth investing in then?<br /> Thanks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-how-to-do-the-sporty-style#post-561788 Fri, 09 Mar 2012 02:33:34 +0000 annagybe 561788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like fancy sweatpants then mixing with more tailored items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-how-to-do-the-sporty-style#post-561781 Fri, 09 Mar 2012 02:19:07 +0000 Sarah A 561781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>yes, i can see how this look can be so fun for spring too! i am still trying to wrap my head around how to do it though... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-how-to-do-the-sporty-style#post-561631 Fri, 09 Mar 2012 00:04:58 +0000 Anonymous 561631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm back, and your pictures look so different from Angie's. I didn't have very positive things to say about the sporty look on her blog post, but change the colors and throw in a metallic and it looks much more do-able to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-how-to-do-the-sporty-style#post-561629 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 23:59:21 +0000 Anonymous 561629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love these looks Jayne, and now I see where you were going with the top you tried on this morning. The white ones are my favorite, for their coverage and structure (?). I love the way they combined silver with the white, so fresh and cool. I'm going to follow Angie's link. I can't wait to see what you come up with for summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-how-to-do-the-sporty-style#post-561552 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 23:09:32 +0000 rachylou 561552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still like those knitted sweatpants. I feel bad about wearing the sporty look because it would be false advertising... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-how-to-do-the-sporty-style#post-561531 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 22:44:39 +0000 Angie 561531@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jayne, the sporty trend is gaining popularity - and it's VERY trendy. </p> <p>#5, #6 and #7 will translate the easiest back to your style. White works well for this look in Spring and Summer. How do you feel about wearing white with silver, neon and pastels? </p> <p>Slubby knit tops, slouchy colour blocked trousers, and a perforated handbag are probably your best bet on the starter kit. This post might inspire you too: </p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/2012/01/19/the-sporty-trend/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2012/01/19/the-sporty-trend/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-how-to-do-the-sporty-style#post-561450 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 21:00:17 +0000 Transcona Shannon 561450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm looking forward to seeing Angie's suggestions regarding this style - the outfits you've posted Jayne are beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-how-to-do-the-sporty-style#post-561330 Thu, 08 Mar 2012 18:39:04 +0000 jayne 561330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Over the last seasons my poison eye to minimal has been cleared and I am more and more drawn, in summer especially, to the minimal clean sporty look. </p> <p>Angie, how does one get started with such a look? I tried a top today that seemed just the thing but then realized I don't know what I would wear it with. So even though I didn't get the top, if I had, what type of bottom am I looking for? and what colors really? </p> <p>It seems this year, as with most years, the sporty minimalist basic is white. But this year also has neon and silver I think. DO you have any starter kit (or maybe trial kit) I should look for?</p> <p>Oh and steer me clear if it is too young or requires a super bod! I can take it!</p> <p>thanks for any help </p>
