Lacoste is outfitting the Australian Open

Filed under: Style in the News, Clothing, Celebrities with Style

If you've ever thought that Lacoste seemed like a stuck-up country club brand that only appeals to tennis players -- that's because it was actually founded by legendary tennis champ René "the alligator" Lacoste. Don't worry, we didn't know that either. Here's another piece of trivia: Lacoste won 7 Grand Slams in the US, England and France, but he never made the trek to the Australian Open.

Now that we know the facts, it's all the more special that Lacoste has teamed up with the Australian Open to deck out all the ball-boys and girls with sharp-looking outfits. According to the article, Lacoste will be providing over 1000 uniforms for linesmen and officials in return for the ability to advertise to one of the most concentrated pockets of influential people on the planet (tennis fans). It's a win-win really. Maybe Lacoste could give Maria Sharapova a little help -- that tuxedo shirt didn't do her any favors.

Wimbledon is fashion central, at least for tennis

Filed under: Clothing, Celebrities with Style



Maria promised to change up her Wimbledon outfit, and and she came through. Her "menswear-inspired" Nike outfit is a decidedly sexy, sheer top with a tudexo "dickie" embellishing the front. With the matching white jacket and white shorts, she could as easily be on her way to lunch as to a championship match.

Players frequently blend in at Wimbledon, where everyone is required to wear white from head to toe. A few, like Sharapova, manage to stand out despite this restriction.

Five-time champion Roger Federer, also sponsored by Nike, does it with a surprise look each year. Others, like Rafa Nadal and his manpris, have their own unique and consistent look that they bring to every match. Not to mention regular fashion notables Serena and Venus Williams, who are almost as well known for their fashion off the court as they are for winning on the court.

Check out the fashion high points of Wimbledon Week One in the gallery.

Maria Sharapova changes it up at Wimbledon

Filed under: Clothing, Celebrities with Style


The Wimbledon grand slam tournament started on Monday, with top seeded trendsetter Maria Sharapova surprising everyone by wearing shorts this year.

The Nike -clad Sharapova going butch is a big surprise. Usually Maria is the girliest of girls on the court, with long blond hair, long earrings and short, flirty skirts. Last year her white Wimbledon dress was inspired by Swan Lake. One year she even wore diamond encrusted shoes.

Join us for a spin down memory lane as we check out Maria's past Wimbledon fashion choices in the gallery.

Maria Sharapova, wearing jewels at her tennis matches?

Filed under: Accessories


It's not unusual to see a high-profile professional athlete score a million dollar endorsement deal with the likes of Adidas, Nike, and Reebok.

But you would be hard pressed to find even the most flamboyant of athletic stars rocking semi-precious stones while competing in their field of expertise. That was until now, of course.

Jessica Alba and George Clooney are world's most desirable people

Filed under: Celebrities with Style

Jessica AlbaNo matter who you ask, Jessica Alba and George Clooney are hot. So hot, in fact, that in addition to being voted Sexiest Man Alive and Sexiest Woman in the World by People and FHM magazines earlier this year, the uber-attractive Hollywood heartthrobs have most recently topped the Yahoo! Personals "Most Desired" list -- ranked by the sites millions of users as the celebrity they'd most like to shack up with.

On the heels of Mr. Clooney were Matthew McConaughey, Kanye West and Andy Roddick -- which all makes sense. But the list was rounded out by Ricky Martin, which makes me think that it wasn't just women who were voting on the male nominations.

Alba, who has been scientifically proven to have the world's most alluring figure, beat out Jennifer Aniston, Queen Latifah, Jessica Simpson, and Maria Sharapova.

So what do you think: are these really the hottest people in Hollywood? Who would you add to the list?

Maria Sharapova: tennis goddess/fashion icon

Filed under: Events: On the Scene, Clothing, Celebrities with Style

For better or for worse, women's tennis these days is as much about a player's looks as it is about her backhand.

At the moment, my favorite "fashionable" tennis player is Maria Sharapova. The blond Russian, who also moonlights as a spokesperson for Canon, showed up to her match against Severine Bremond of France on Thursday wearing an incredible white dress by Nike. The tiered skirt with distinctive ruffled angel wings along the back made the high performance outfit seem as street-worthy as it was court-worthy.

While the feminist in me hates to reduce talented female athletes to their looks, the fashionista in me says Maria's dress was a definite tennis DO!
