So, yes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878542 Sun, 14 Jan 2018 00:51:49 +0000 Brooklyn 1878542@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I voted yay. I have a chevron pair (Missoni x Converse) and a dark floral pair. It's a nice change from plain sneakers. I like the Ted Bakers too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878533 Sun, 14 Jan 2018 00:16:00 +0000 Style Fan 1878533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them but I can't wear them.&nbsp; My feet are too fussy.&nbsp; The Ted Baker ones are gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878513 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 22:48:26 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1878513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are not floral but I am in a bit of a mood for lilac and fancy.</p> <p>Also I like those floral sneaker oxfords that KKards posted. I ordered them, would have kept them if the sole wasn't white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878507 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 22:04:04 +0000 Anonymous 1878507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shoot. Now I need/ahem/want the dark Ted Baker florals. &nbsp;I love printed sneakers for both fashion and athletics - although I can't say I own any at the moment. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878469 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 19:20:38 +0000 Janet 1878469@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like printed/patterned sneakers, and even though I didn't wear this particular pair (by Nike, in Finds below) a ton this past year, I still enjoy them for casual days.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878429 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 17:22:57 +0000 karen13 1878429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like the look of printed sneakers, even though I don't own any (I have fussy feet and haven't found the right one.) They can add a fun pop to a solid colored outfit, or be pattern mixed for the more maximal look. I am more drawn to the skater shoe (Vans lace up) or slip on style than the athletic shoe look. I think high tops look particularly good with a print. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878397 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 15:46:54 +0000 Aurore 1878397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you <b>La Pedestrienne</b>, <b>unfrumped</b>, <b>Diana</b>, <i><b></b></i><b>The Cat</b><i></i>, <b>Joy</b>, for your experience and insight!</p> <p><b>kkards</b>, the print of the 2nd one is so beautiful, and the 3d pair is so original! I had never met shoes like that. </p> <p><b>always trying</b>, the idea of floral embroidered pumps is dreamy...</p> <p><b>Murph11 </b>and <b>Madeline</b>, I felt the same way when I stumbled upon the dark Ted Bakers. For now, they are my favourites. </p> <p><b>SarahD8</b>, great idea to pair floral sneakers and nautical stripes! </p> <p><b>Mainelady</b>, I love the idea of plaid Vans for autumn or winter!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878395 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 15:41:02 +0000 Mainelady 1878395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes! I think they are so fun! I have a pair of red plaid and a pair with a Liberty floral print. Both are Vans style. I hope to add some great lace ups for late spring and summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878385 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 15:22:30 +0000 Anonymous 1878385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To answer your question, yes, if I found the right pair, I would wear them for non-sporty occasions (Shopping isn't a sport?). They would need to be all-day comfortable, and, being a print, could be more limited when styling. The Ted Bakers would be lovely with a black/blush outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878384 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 15:22:17 +0000 SarahD8 1878384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree, go for it! </p> <p>I had a pair of floral canvas skimmers a few years back. They were great in summer, I loved to mix them with other floral prints and nautical stripes. I miss them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878381 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 15:13:26 +0000 madeline 1878381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You had me at black floral. The Ted Bakers are beautiful. Go for it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878370 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 14:53:07 +0000 The Cat 1878370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, I definitely think printed sneakers/trainers would be great for sightseeing, shopping, etc. Floral sneakers/trainers, in particular, are more pretty and fun than ordinary sneakers/trainers.</p> <p>I don't have any at present, but I hope to come across a pair that I really like--and at a reasonable price. I don't want to pay much, as this style will likely not be wearable in my daily life. (Most of the ones I have seen, would be too sporty/casual/heavy for my job and most of my other activities.) Of the ones shown here, kkards' #2 is my favourite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878368 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 14:48:05 +0000 Diana 1878368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Big yes from me. I own these floral slip on sneakers and would love some other ones as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878360 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 14:32:56 +0000 Murph11 1878360@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ted Baker makes a dark floral sneaker?! Be still my heart! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878357 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 14:23:44 +0000 always trying 1878357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a love for all kinds of floral footwear, and I too am talking myself out of getting them. I have a pair of block heeled pumps with floral embroidery that I love.&nbsp; Did talk myself out of floral booties but floral sneakers are on my mind for spring.&nbsp; So I say get them... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878356 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 14:23:29 +0000 kkards 1878356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>a big yes from me....i own these....the 1st pair is&nbsp;embroidered and the last pair is sort of a hybrid sneaker/oxford....all 3 pairs are comfy and take an ordinary outfit to a more interesting place.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878355 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 14:08:09 +0000 unfrumped 1878355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am drawn to florals in canvas materials as feeling summery . I had some floral Sperrrys last year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878352 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 13:53:59 +0000 LaPed 1878352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm very attracted to sneakers with pattern, esp botanicals. I have a pair of classic Converse all stars with an apple print from several years ago. They are great for livening up casual outfits, although I rarely wear now because my foot size and width has changed since then. :(</p> <p>I particularly like the blue pair you show; I think the floral looks great with that classic silhouette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/printed-sneakerstrainers-yay-or-nay#post-1878350 Sat, 13 Jan 2018 13:39:53 +0000 Aurore 1878350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I seldom if ever wear sneakers or trainers (except for sport). However, I lately found myself more and more attracted to sporty-looking printed ones, especially floral, when I come across them in stores. </p> <p>Footwear like the finds below could probably be quite versatile, from city breaks to shopping days, but I can't make up my mind. </p> <p>What do you think? Would you (or do you) wear such printed sneakers / trainers for non-sporty occasions? </p> <p>ETA : my best friend, my husband and you YLF girls all voted Yay! This helped me decide (or gave me an excuse...) to order my favourite ones - the black Ted Bakers. </p> <p>Further ETA : Sadly, I had to return the black Ted Bakers. They look marvellous in person, but there is a piece of hard material in the back that hurts my previously damaged Achilles tendon. Sigh. </p>
