Winter Olympics - Fashion Edition

I have been enjoying the Olympics as I always do.  There is something about the passion, determination, and commitment of the athletes that makes me happy.  I am in awe of their skills, their courage, and their drive.  If I had just one tenth of that, I would be able to rule the world (or at least get off my but and exercise every now and again).  One thing I have noticed this year, besides the amazing talent of the American athletes, is their cool uniforms.  So I bring you the Vancouver Olympics Fashion Report.

Dashing, debonaire, studly, cool, dude...

Beautiful, sexy (but not too), stylish, gorgeous

Podium Jackets by Nike

Love the ombre look, very nice

So very cool, love the plaid, love the pants that look like jeans

Happy Olympics Day!

I am soooo excited for the Olympics to start! I don't know whether it is the pomp and circumstance, the lump in my throat every time the National Anthem is played, or the secret envy of all those athletically inclined humans. I was althletically challenged as a child - too long legs, back surgery, and asthma (that wasn't diagnosed until I was an adult). I was a mess when it came to the President's Physical Fitness Test. So, every four years I get to live vicariously through the mighty Olympians. I will watch from opening ceremonies to closing, every medal stand, each swimming heat. This time I am also intrigued by the location. Beijing is such a mystery to the western world and I can't wait to see NBC's coverage of China.

Let the Games begin!!!
