Skater Girl
Have to admit, I've been largely taking in Olympics coverage in a peripheral manner, reading the sports section and catching highlights (skier Lindsey Vonn, snowboarder Scotty Lago and his legion of female medal-lickers, the four-man U.S. bobsled teams, et al).
But for all the success the U.S. Olympians have enjoyed in Vancouver this Winter, I'm really moved by the performance of South Korean gold-medal figure skater Kim Yu-Na.
Her programs have been as elegant as they are technically proficient.
Everyone from Dorothy Hamill to Michelle Kwan has taken notice. And it's not just the double axels: Yu-Na's costumes, including a beaded ombre number, are to die. Worth checking out.
