The shorts was the problem, somehow, it didn't look right. Maybe too loose. And, I remember a Tux like shirt for Maria Kirilenko’s 2007 outfit by adidas from Stella McCartney. Serena's Mackintosh was interesting, though she looked odd warming up in it; not necessary. Venus was alright in her EleVen outfit too. Venus played well, she will have the un-enviable task of eliminating two Brit women favorites. I do worry about Sveta, she does seem pretty shaky still. So much promise, but she fails to inspire for some strange reason. Sharapova and Jelena have been pretty excellent so far, given that they played no grass tournaments before the Championships. They had Elena on some far away court. I think court 17 it was. Elena needs to win a Slam soon to get some respect, she's a top 10 player for crying out loud. Ivanovic will go far, Safina looked alright, but Anna will not be able sleepwalk her way through this tournament. She will need to wake up or it will be curtains pretty soon.

I think it's very original and cute. My favorite outfit of the tournament. I can’t believe you don’t like Sharapova’s outfit. I think it’s very original and cute.
