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.

It's getting hot out, at least where we are, and that means our wardrobe is slowly but surely changing. We're starting to pack away our heavy clothes and bring out more summery attire, which includes ... wait for it ... shorts!

Wait, don't panic! We know that the thought of shorts sends many women into a fit -- we are actually friends with many lovely ladies who have such a complex about their thighs that they will occasionally wear a skirt, but never, ever shorts. If you fall into this category and are happy there, that's just fine. But, if you're wondering what summer might feel like in a pair of stylish, flattering shorts, check out the gallery for some helpful tips.

Monday night on American Idol, Paula Abdul provided one of the most jaw-dropping, crazy fashion moments of her career.

As always, Jessica from Go Fug Yourself did a stellar job of expressing the shock and awe that Paula's black, silk, fingerless, opera-length gloves, plus -- PLUS! -- rhinestone accessories, inspired in all of us.

I was so inspired, that I went back and pulled together a gallery of some of Paula's most interesting sartorial hits. Honestly, she looks good more than she looks bad - no, really! - but when she goes off the rails, fasten your seatbelt!

Highlights of the exciting gallery include bright colors, gathered capris, ruffles, cleavage and one nutty Boy George hat.
