Ralph’s Olympics

Olympics+Opening+Ceremony+1-abnU8WmTWl[1].jpgRoger Federer and Serena Williams won Wimbledon this weekend, but tennis isn’t the only sport we at Fashionista love. We’re also incredibly obsessed with the Olympics.

It’s summer time, but Vogue UK is already thinking about next winter, and now so are we. Skating and skiing and hockey, oh my!

The opening ceremony is always a huge deal, and we’re pretty psyched to see how Vancouver is planning on following up the incredible show in Beijing. We love comparing each country’s get-up and deciding on our favorite. It was just announced that Ralph Lauren is again designing for the US team, as he did for the 2008 Summer Games.

Fresh Whites

builtbywendyGRIDdressongirl.jpgBuilt by Wendy is having a huge sale right now, and this dress really caught our eye.

It’s called the Grid Tennis Dress, and you already know how into the sport we are.

We love this one way more than anything we’ve seen Serena wear on court (sorry, Serena, we still think you’re an awesome athlete!), because it’s a classic look. And when we wear it to frolic in Central Park we can pretend that we’re Maureen Connelly effortlessly working the courts.

There really is something about summer that begs for a perfect white dress, and this smock-like dress is girly, but a different shape than anything we have in our closets.

See you on Centre Court - at least that’s where we’ll be pretending to be.

Match Point

Today marks the beginning of the most fashionable, in our opinion, of all the Grand Slams - Wimbledon. It must be noted that I am a huge tennis fan and much like Ms. Wintour, I have much affection for Mr. Federer. Though, unfortunately I do not get the chance to frequently jet to his matches.

I look forward to seeing what the people at Nike come up with for him every year for this tournament. It’s always dapper and ultra chic, like this jacket in the picture, though the cardigan sweater from last year might be my favorite.

I simply swoon over the classic gentlemanly touches and the retro feel. It just sums up everything that I think Wimbledon should be sartorially.

Maybe he can throw some advice about subtlety in fashion choices Serena Williams’ way if they cross paths at Centre Court, because we’re a little unsure about the gold pants as well as some of her on-court choices.

Do you prefer the classic look or something a little jazzier on the court? If you like tennis, that is.
