Veronica Beard and Head Sportswear Just Dropped a Collab—Shop It Now
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. Whether you're on the court or watching from the sidelines, there's something transfixing about the sight of a tennis ball slicing through the air—driven by a perfect blend of power and grace. That moment becomes even more vivid when you're fully equipped for the occasion. Veronica Beard understands the power of looking the part—and feeling confident while doing it. Whether you're in the boardroom, running errands, or powering through a high-speed rally, what you wear can shape your day-to-day. Just in time for summer, the brand has partnered with Head Sportswear to launch a chic, limited-edition capsule collection of tennis apparel and activewear. NCAA tennis champion and content creator Ayan Broomfield, who stars in the campaign for the capsule, knows firsthand the impact of style on performance. 'After playing tennis for over 20 years, I've definitely learned how to find confidence on and off the court with my style,' she tells ELLE. 'This collection encapsulates that, and I hope that anyone who wears these pieces feels the same way. I always use the motto: Look good, feel good, play good. I'm such a huge believer that what you wear impacts how you feel. You can take that from being on the court, but also incorporate it into your daily life.' Priced between $80 and $298, the collection includes six thoughtfully designed pieces: a sleek tennis dress (a standout for Broomfield), a versatile skort, a classic tank top, a coordinated sports bra and leggings set, and a lightweight track jacket ideal for warmups. 'Tennis dresses are such a staple,' Broomfield says. 'But this one in particular is sporty, feminine, and feels amazing to wear. I can throw it on with sneakers or style it with a jacket—it transitions seamlessly from day to night. It's definitely my favorite piece.' It's no surprise that function and versatility are central to Broomfield's approach to fashion. As an athlete, social media personality, and philanthropist—while also traveling the globe to support her longtime partner, pro tennis star Frances Tiafoe—she leads a fast-paced, multifaceted life. 'My number one priority is always finding that balance between function and fashion,' she says. 'This collection lets me move freely while still feeling stylish.' For Broomfield, functional fashion is more than practicality—it's a form of self-expression. 'I remember going to the US Open and seeing the Williams sisters, especially Serena. Her outfits were so out-there and screamed personality and confidence,' she recalls. 'In other sports, athletes wear jerseys; it's a team thing. Tennis is so individual, and that gives you the freedom to really express who you are through what you wear.'

Bethenny Frankel, 54, Dances Around in Her Teeny-Tiny Bikini Ahead of Modeling for 'Sports Illustrated Swimsuit' Runway
Bethenny Frankel is heating up Miami Swim Week The 54-year-old former Real Housewives of New York City star modeled for Sports Illustrated She recently announced her move to Florida with her 14-year-old daughter BrynBethenny Frankel is coming in hot! The 54-year-old former Real Housewives of New York City star shared an Instagram video of herself in a barely there bikini on Thursday, May 29, as she participated in Miami Swim Week. Her clip began with Nelly's 2002 banger 'Hot in Herre' as she covered herself with the door of a portable closet situated next to a dressing rack of clothes. Just seconds into the catchy song, Frankel threw the flaps back, revealing a mostly gold, multicolor, strappy push-up bikini with elements of black and pink. She grabbed a black cowgirl hat with silver embellishments and danced toward the camera, spinning around occasionally while lip-syncing and modeling the design. 'Sports Illustrated is heating up Miami,' the reality television alum captioned her video. According to a second post, her tan heels seen in the clip were by designer Veronica Beard, and appeared to be the Tia Croc-Embossed Sandal in the shade Parchment. The shoe retails for $350. 'It takes a lot of discipline to look like this at any age. 🙌🔥,' one commenter wrote. Katie Austin, who has also appeared in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit and is the daughter of pro fitness coach Denise Austin, added, 'You look unrealllll🔥.' Things seem to be going well in Florida for Frankel after she revealed in April that she was making the Sunshine State her primary residence. "I've been waiting until I got down here to tell you, but I am moving to Florida for personal and professional reasons," she explained in an April 17 TikTok. "Something has arisen that made this the best and healthiest decision for myself and my daughter." The Skinnygirl founder is mom to Bryn, 14, whom she shares with her ex-husband Jason Hoppy. She clarified that she would be keeping her homes in New York City and the Hamptons "because we love New York." However, Florida will now serve as their "primary and permanent" home base. Frankel promised to keep her fans updated with how things continued to go. She then showed off a view of the beach, saying, "This will be my backyard.' Ahead of her announcement, she was photographed on Miami Beach on Feb. 8 as she caught some sun and showed off the results of her diet and exercise in a strapless bikini.

For accessories, she went with a single necklace, multiple bracelets on one wrist and a watch on the other. Read the original article on People
