I'll see how it goes.

My personal favorite is a pair of low-cut, unembellished, black leather sneakers I bought in Paris. I can walk for hours in them and they fit my style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-travel-in-comfort-sneaker-edition#post-1304517 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 23:30:05 +0000 Isis 1304517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One probably shouldn't travel with really dirty shoes of any kind, not just running sneakers.&nbsp; So really dirty heels also would rarely work for travel, LOL!</p> <p>I travel in my running sneakers because (1) I like to run at my destination and running shoes are bulky and take up too much room in my carryon, and (2), they are comfortable and sometimes I need to run to catch a flight. </p> <p>As Angie would say, horses for courses!&nbsp; (Did I use that phrase correctly?)</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-travel-in-comfort-sneaker-edition#post-1304512 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 23:25:03 +0000 Peri 1304512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not quite a fan of "you can't do this with that" kind of rules. I try not to judge people because you never know their reasons for what they do. I will do what I can with fashion but only what I can. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-travel-in-comfort-sneaker-edition#post-1304504 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 23:12:49 +0000 abc 1304504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love # 1. </p> <p>I wear josef siebel sneaks in snakeskin but usually with casual outfits. I don't normally travel in my business attire. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/business-travel-in-comfort-sneaker-edition#post-1304122 Tue, 15 Jul 2014 17:20:04 +0000 Cindy Fontan 1304122@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yesterday I posted a photo and description on my travel outfit. A fellow YLF'er reminded me that sneakers are acceptable for getting around town. I agree but I've seen some women pair their nice business suit with really dirty running sneakers and to me, that is not acceptable. </p> <p>I was inspired to share with you a few of my favorite embellished sneakers spotted earlier this year during fashion week shows all across the world. </p> <p>1.
