I loved that inspiration pic when Angie posted it, and I'm so glad to see your amazing rendition of it. I prefer the Rockports, too--I prefer a more fashiony looking sneaker myself. Love them in silver especially! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278898 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 02:07:39 +0000 Gracie 1278898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous all around!

You are just as elegant and chic&nbsp;balancing on the edge of that tub in sneakers as in everything else I have seen you for the last five years! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278817 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 00:11:44 +0000 Suz 1278817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Debora, you look sensational! I am especially taken with look #1 -- those sandals are so pretty and unexpected with the mesh hoodie. And the Banana Republic diagonal sleeve top -- is that this year's item? I really like that a lot.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love the idea of silver sneakers. I think they might be a bit easier to wear as you dip your toes into this trend, although your dark hair does bookend the dark ones, which is another consideration.&nbsp;</p> <p>Congratulations on being a 5 year veteran!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278808 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 23:57:42 +0000 Debora 1278808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Merwoman! The clutch several years old. It is a Lela Rose for Payless and was a gift from DD </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278805 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 23:50:18 +0000 merwoman 1278805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats Deborah - you have amazing style! Love your outfits as styled with sandals best - beautiful proportions, and pant length. I want to steal that clutch!! &nbsp;Nodding my head to Angie's wise advice to try less contrasty sneaker. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278795 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 23:26:32 +0000 Debora 1278795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all so much for your kind comments!</p> <p>Angie, thanks so much! Glad to hear I'm on the right track. What you said makes perfect sense. The Rockports have been a workhorse for me this past spring. So comfortable, and I have worn them mostly with dark jeans. The black Nikes are my walking sneakers, mostly for gear. Love their cushioning. I have a black dress that hits above the knee...now only to get up the courage to step completely outside my comfort zone. </p> <p> Those Rockports come in silver...hmmmm. Tempted!</p> <p>Mary, that hoodie is ancient, but I do love it. The tags are gone from it and I can't even remember where I got it, lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278790 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 23:22:14 +0000 MsMary 1278790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fab!&nbsp; It's always great to see you balancing so gracefully on that tub!&nbsp; You look super fab, and oh my gosh!&nbsp; I am drooling over the mesh hoodie!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278778 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 22:59:18 +0000 Windchime 1278778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Learning along with you about how to style sneakers, but wanted to comment on your elegant, luxe blouses. Neat idea to create this montage to observe your YLF anniversary! (Very pretty bathroom, too.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278766 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 22:49:28 +0000 Anonymous 1278766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So nice to see you!

Wow! And your balancing skills are better than ever. It's great to see you post again. Great outfits, and I'm coming over to steal that clutch in #1. I like the Rockports too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278728 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 21:51:55 +0000 Angie 1278728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wooohoo, Queen Tub Balancer. Fab to see you post again. And thanks for being a very loyal YLF-er.&nbsp;(((Special Hugs Back, Darling Deb))).&nbsp;</p> <p>You whacked it out of the ballpark with #2 and #6. Sporty Luxe Fabness. LOVE.&nbsp;</p> <p>Of the two black sneaker styles - I prefer the Rockports. You might prefer a much lighter sneaker with these outfits though - like silver. Or a truly black top with the black sneaks. Black dress too - just above the knee. Also try the look with black rolled pants or dark jeans. These little bookending tips will help pull together&nbsp;the outfit. You are on the right track though. Nicely done xo</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278722 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 21:44:31 +0000 Adelfa 1278722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations! All of these outfits look fantastic. I like the refined sneakers best, especially since you are delicate and refined. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278718 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 21:43:23 +0000 Lyn D. 1278718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on 5 years!<br />Looking Fab in all your pics, and both sneaks work with your Chinos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278713 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 21:39:15 +0000 Sharon 1278713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I love the way you have interpreted this trend. I think the sneakers ooh great. I like the first pair best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278670 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 20:23:45 +0000 Patricia 1278670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first pair of runners with the outfits. And I too agree on your great balancing act. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278669 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 20:21:58 +0000 Debora 1278669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Sara, I'm experimenting and my eye is still adjusting too. My first instinct was to wear the chinos with sandals. I had to really go outside my comfort zone to pair them with the sneakers. I'm still not so sure I will be able to wear them this way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/celebrating-my-5-yr-ylf-anniversary-with-sporty-luxe#post-1278668 Sun, 15 Jun 2014 20:17:52 +0000 Sara L. 1278668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, great outfits (and great balancing act)! &nbsp;I'm not sure about which pair of sneakers though. &nbsp;My eye is still adjusting to athletic sneakers as fashion. </p>
