Guess Who?
Guess who was courtside watching Roger Federer win the 2008 US Open?
Show Me the US Open Money!
The US Open drew to a close yesterday afternoon, as Roger Federer beat Andy Murray in three sets. Federer claimed his 13th grand slam victory and vowed to try to win another one, because staying at 13 would be so unlucky. On the women's side of things, Serena Williams rallied through two sets to beat Jelena Jankovic.
Will You Be Watching the US Open?
While I am loving the fashion of the US Open, it is the exciting tennis that keeps me watching — like the amazing quarterfinal battle between Venus and Serena. The women's final airs today at 8:00 p.m. EST, and the men's final will be Sunday at 4:00 p.m.
US Open Is a Fashion Grand Slam
As always, I am really enjoying the US Open right now. I love watching all the strong players battle it out on the court, but this year I am noticing an added element to the game: fashion.
Maybe it was because Anna Wintour has been frequenting the stands or because fashion week is just around the corner, but the tennis outfits are awesome this year.
Words That Move You . . .
"What defines a person's character is not how you are when you're on top. It's how you are when you're on the bottom and working your way back." — Serena Williams, in the August 2008 issue of Glamour
After taking home a gold medal in women's doubles at the Olympics, Serena Williams is moving on to the US Open this week.
Ball Stomp'r: Spoiled Sweet or Spoiled Rotten?
Here's yet another way to chuck a tennis ball without actually throwing it – time to use the power of da' feet. The Ball Stomp'r ($12) features a launch tube that fits a standard-sized ball and when you step, it soars up to 100 feet! If your dogs love to fetch and your throwing arm works about as well as mine (read: not good), this could be a nice option .
Trend Setters: Preppy Pets Rock . . . Tennis Chic
It's been a while since I've gave you a preppy update, but here I am with some tennis-inspired dog gear to celebrate the US Open.
If your dog's ready to play a game of fetch (and not a fan of dressing up), why not sub a simple prop like a collar or accessory? I especially love these visors – I thought I found every possible hat back on National Hat Day, but guess not .
Bring the US Open Love Home!
Today marks the start of the US Open (which coincidentally coincided six years ago today when I brought North home to NYC)! To celebrate the beginning of this event, I'm rounding up the first round thing to come to mind . .
Goodbye Olympics, Hello US Open!
Whether you're relieved or disappointed that the Olympics are over, you can now channel your sports watching elsewhere. The US Open kicks off today in New York!
I always love watching the Open: It's the only Grand Slam tournament held in the US, which makes it feel more familiar even if I can't sit courtside.

Breaking News: Luella is No More
I unfortunately have to break some very sad news to you as one of London's best loved fashion labels, Luella, is no more. The announcement came today as WWD revealed that the long term investor Club 21 have walked away from the design house.
