Some say the athleisure trend is big now. I would say it is considering how many brands the Q carries LOGO, Cuddle Duds, Barefoot Dreams to name a few.

I dress business casual at work. Lots of my co-workers only wear jeans and tennies every day. I am old school because I grew up learning that you should dress for the job you want not the job you have. I also just like to dress up because I feel more confident when I look my best.

So I really like alot of the athleisure wear, especially skirts, dresses and tops. It's hard for me to jump on the "tennis shoes with a skirt or dress" when I used to wear heels most of the time. I try to wear comfortable shoes now because I need more support.

Maybe I will try it. I really prefer to be comfortable and dressed at the same time. 😉

I would with a tee shirt dress or denim skirt. I've seen a few sweater dresses that are casual with tights and the xneakers don't look bad.

Only while going to and from wherever I was going.  Before I retired, I always wore "sneakers" commuting and changed into shoes at work.

I don't live a "athleisure" lifestyle.  Not at all interested in that style of clothing.

Not going to happen with me. Sneakers (running shoes) are for walking/jogging/exercising.

No I wouldn't. Athleisure isn't my style. Never has been.

Don't do it just because you think it's how they're being worn; do you!

It's a light, casual sort of airy look for summer.  In the winter?  No, not practical.

 Yes, when I was at work and had to run all over a big facility to meet with staff on 6 floors.  I had a desk job but I hated phone tag so I'd run around using the steps instead of the slow elevators to meet with busy physicians .

If I'm  going out I wear nice shoes to match my outfit .

I would wear sneakers with a t-shirt dress or a casual swing dress made from t-shirt material, though I almost always opt for sandals instead.

I can't stand wearing sneaker without socks, and hate the look of socks with a dress....so I would have to wear those no-show socks, too.

Always sandals in the summer, with a skirt.

There's nothing wrong with staying in your comfort zone.  My department is business casual but when I go into the office, I would not wear sneakers with dresses.  I don't recall any women going that far.  On my own time, I have worn white tennis shoes with tee shirt dresses.

I wear sneakers with dresses and skorts all the time.  But they are not the big clunky sneakers, they are the lighter slimmer sneakers.  I work in a very casual office and don't need to dress up at all.  But I want to wear all my dresses and skorts so I wear sneakers.  Wearing heels and dressier shoes would not be comfortable in the warehouse (or anywhere for that matter).  So glad my days of wearing heels are over.
