What has Serena Williams been doing?

Serena Williams had pulled out of this week's Dubai tournament due to injury, and I found this interesting article on what she has been up to.

...Williams was hoping to find inspiration at New York Fashion Week.

At shows by Marc Jacobs and Oscar de la Renta, she reveled in the sophisticated, sleek styles of the designers. Their use of color for fall, she says, will help inspire a fall palette for her new Exotic Jewels lips collection.

And this gem:

...Williams raves about a pair of black Diane von Furstenberg pants she bought during fashion week. "I got them three days ago, and I've already worn them four times. They are classic."

I'm not sure if anything has been decided on when she will be ready to return to tennis - but this year is shaping up to be just like last year, in which she played very few tournaments. She did still manage too pull off that Australian Open win, though - maybe she is saving everything she has for the slams.
