Styled by College Football

Before I started blogging at Ruby Perrin, I was blogging at Stilettos on the Gridiron -- named to reflect my dueling complementary interests in style and sports.  A few weeks into this year's college and pro football seasons and it's clear to me that my obsession with football has gone, well, nowhere.  In honor of that obsession, I'm launching a new series here on Ruby Perrin called (wait for it) . . . Stilettos on the Gridiron.  Each week, I'll be posting a design board inspired by the #1 and #25 teams in that week's AP Top 25.  The top team will be featured on Mondays, and the team coming in at number twenty-five (a feat equally worthy of a little style celebration) will be featured on Wednesdays. It's Monday, so let's get started with the very first design board, brought to us by...

Alabama.  The Crimson Tide remain comfortably on top this week after defeating Florida Atlantic 40-7 over the weekend (ouch).  This one's for you, Alabama fans:
