Serena Williams rocked a leather dress for her appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman on August 21. The V-neck body-con dress by Narciso Rodriguez fit her perfectly and showed off all her assets, including those well-toned arms! Love her smokey eyes, nude lips, and wavy locks, too!

However, I would’ve loved to see her in a different pair of shoes because her strappy sequined heels didn’t do enough to support her strong frame. Perhaps black platform pumps with black sequins?

If you have ever seen how intense she is on the court, you’d never guess she’d have the capability to look as feminine as she often does on the red carpet. Serena has professed her love for designer clothing and accessories and is often on lists of best-dressed celebrities.

Ms. Williams is currently ranked World’s No. 1 in Women’s Singles Tennis. She is the reigning champ in the following tournaments: French Open, US Open, WTA Championships, and Olympics. What a girl, indeed!

Was the dress too tight or just right? We do like that the athlete paired it with funky heels in black and white with yellow ankle ties. Just a few months ago, we spotted her in another pair of animal-printed sandals by Burberry.

Serena’s black and white sandals are from Aperlai’s Fall 2013 collection and feature artistic print consisting of fish scales on textured snakeskin material. The collection includes an array of architectural designs, bold color combinations, exotic textures, and fashion-forward silhouettes.

These heels are trimmed with black suede and patent leather, plus they have ankle ties in yellow suede, making them more fashionable. Would you like to own a pair?
