Sporty Spice

Sports have never been my strong point. I lack coordination, speed and defence skills - which, to be honest, is fine with me - I'd rather read a magazine than run around in a muddy field anyway. And it's not just playing sports that I hate, I don't watch them either - although I make an exception for Andy Roddick at Wimbeldon, because he's so cute.
But I like all sports when given a Vogue Italia makeover. This Linda Evangelista shoot is totally gorge - how does she make a bloody nose look stylish? Seriously, how?

Since when was being grubby so fashionable?! Can't say I'll take to not washing anytime soon but bring on the nosebleed (a la Evangelista not Alyson ANTM)...
