Steve and Barry's Department Store website has revealed the 'EleVen' line designed by Venus Williams. I love it! I definitely saw some pieces that I'll be purchasing. Venus is looking FAB-U-LOUS in the photo shoot displaying the line.

Tennis fans can expect a double dose of action from the most high-profile siblings in world sport after Venus and Serena Williams today confirmed their intention to play doubles at next year's Australian Open.
The Williams sisters have not played doubles at Melbourne Park since they won the coveted title for the second time in three years in 2003.
The pair played their first doubles match together in four years at Wimbledon this year before withdrawing in the second round because of injury.
They haven't returned to the court together since.
Because injuries have kept them off the doubles court for so long they now only have a nominal ranking of 9999.
Australian Open tournament director Craig Tiley said he was thrilled to hear of their intention to play doubles.
“The Williams sisters in full flight on the same side of the net is one of the great sights in tennis,” Tiley said.
“They are also one of the most skilled pairings on the world circuit with an incredibly successful record in doubles.”
The Williams sisters are one of only five pairings in women's tennis history to win a career doubles grand slam.
In all, they have won six majors (Wimbledon and Australian Open twice, US and French) and an Olympic gold medal in Sydney in 2000.
“It is great news for Australian tennis fans that they are coming here to play singles and to try and recapture their doubles crown,” Tiley said.
“We can't get enough of the Williams sisters, especially after Serena's amazing effort in 2007,” Tiley said.

I realize that Roger Federer is human and, like any other player, can be beaten on any given day. It's just that not many of those days have occured over recent years, and I got used to it. So today seemed as if the earth had tilted slightly on its axis, or the four horsemen came riding in.
"Some players or people might think, 'Now he's more vulnerable,'" Federer said. "I disagree, obviously. I'm going to hopefully show them again this week 
and then obviously next year again."
The above is Roger Federer's response regarding his first consecutive match losses in 4 1/2 years! Earlier today Chilean Fernando Gonzalez defeated Federer 4-6, 7-6 (1), 7-5 at the ATP Masters Cup in Shanghai, China. Federer is the defending champion and entered today's match with a 15-0 record in round-robin play at the season-ending tournament. He was also up 10 wins against world no. 7 Fernando Gonzalez.
So why would we expect anything different to happen? We wouldn't. It was safe to assume th
at Federer would take Gonzalez out for the 11th time. And that's not to put Gonzalez down, because his game has truly turned around over the last couple of years. He's a true pleasure to watch. He's got speed, accuracy and snazzy shots. But Federer is Federer, 'nuff said.
The dragon slayer Gonzalez said, "I was feeling really bad on the court, but after, he went down a little bit and my level went up. I think the key of the match was my serve and don't be scared to go for my shots. After 10 times, it's my turn now." I hear ya' David, ehh.., I mean Gonzalez, Goliath goin' down!!! ehh..., Federer goin' down!!!
