Green is the new black, only better

Green is the hot thing right now, in every possible way.

What inspired me to write this? So, I went to see Atonement while I was in Bruges and I fell in love with, what seems to me, the prettiest dress ever, and I am now developing an obsession with green , even though my infatuation with green dresses started a while ago, first with a
shot of an Nylon intern, and then with this gorgeous dress by Stella McCartney (which led to this ) and now I'm seeing green everywhere.
Onto other green stuff (um ,not that green stuff), I'm mad about the Boston Celtics (if you didn't get it, I'm talking NBA). Getting Kevin Garnett in their team was a damn good choice. They are having a stunning season, standing tall as first in the eastern conference, leading by 33 wins and only 7 losses up to now! ( so you may not know this about me yet, but I'm a basketball freak. This spring I'm going to visit NYC with my family and get to attend 2 basketball games!!! (Heat vs Knicks, and then Nets vs Suns! Talk about amazing).

I'm also developing a crush on super hot Micky Green (Green not being her real family name, but chose it as seen green is her favorite color). The girl is absolutely gorgeous, looking more as if she were of Nordic origins than Aussie. Her voice is deep and low, and her music is so appropriate for a calm afternoon doing DYI's on your bedroom floor. (as seen not everyone seems to know her, check her out : http://www.myspace.com/mickygreenmusic "Oh!" is my favorite)

Last but not least, vote green (yes, I am aware that most of us don't even have the legal age yet -whatever). The best way to save the planet is : use your bike! I was amazed in Flanders ; most people there go everywhere by bike, and they have huuuge parkings for bicycles. And really how chic is it? All round girls in heels and beautiful long coats cycling it up. Not convinced yet? This Sartorialist picture is sure to make you change your mind!(Remember) RedBikew

Green off!

My second love : Tennis

(Fashion being the first of course)

So,the lucky me got tickets for Roland Garros and traveled all my way to Paris to see tennis matches, but the unlucky me didn't get to see any of those matches because of the rain. Extreme sadness, isn't it

However I went there last year and got to see tadadaaaaam, the roaring-screaming goddess, its majesty Maria Sharapova (okay so I know she's lost but whatever). Why does she always get to wear beautiful tennis clothes and I don't? Seriously not fair. Her most memorable dress was, as far as I'm concerned, her last year's French Open one, the ballerina pink dress. As soon as I saw it I was under her spell. How lovely did she look in it? I was on the hunt for something similar last year but no way I could find it, anywhere. UUUh OOh UUUH, jealousy.

But this year's dress was also fuck-you-I-want-it-too jealousy inducing. I mean just take a look at it! It looks so high fashion yet sporty. My 2 loves combined in one thing. SIGH

There is absolutly no justice in this world.
If I can't play like a pro, why can't I at least dress like one? Pffffttt

Now let's talk about my other favorite player, Ana Ivanovic. I first started loving her because she was Serbian (patriotism is always a good explanation) , then because she was the cute chubby player, now because she's even more than super pretty, and she GOT TO THE FINALS! I was really suprised and can't wait for the match. I hope she suprises me again. And just look at her. Absolute cuteness/hotness/prettyness/great dress (wow! rhymes!).

EDIT : PS: Unfortunately, Ana lost...Gaaah so sad. And of course her dress, which I was going to buy, is sold out. Can you say shit?
PPS : Who are your favorite players? If you have one :D
