Britney Spears: Fashion Designer

I wondered what Britney Spears was up to since she finished her Circus tour. I haven't heard any talk about a new album. Maybe that's because she's been hard at work on a new project: her own fashion line for Candies.

InStyle.com reports Britney's limited edition line is set to hit Kohl's stores (and kohls.com) on July 1.

InStyle.com: How involved were you in the design process?

Britney Spears: First, I met with the Candie’s designers and told them what my favorite styles are. Then, we sketched the items together. I loved it when I saw the samples for the first time.

InStyle.com: So, it was love at first sight. Do you have a favorite item from the collection?

Britney Spears: I love the black trench coat. You can wear it over your outfit or as a dress. There’s also an amazing studded skirt that’s perfect for going out.

InStyle.com: Studs are still a big trend. Were there any other trends you wanted to incorporate?

Britney Spears: I used a lot of studs and lace, because I wanted to make the clothes cool and edgy yet girly. I also love jeans, so I had to make sure there were some great pairs in the collection. And I love jewelry so there are a lot of fun pieces. There are great necklaces and big earrings.

InStyle.com: How do you describe your own personal style?

Britney Spears: My personal style is mix of comfortable and flirty. I love cute little dresses but I also love comfy sweaters and jeans.

InStyle.com: You recently announced on Twitter that the collection would be a limited edition. When will the clothing hit stores?

Britney Spears: The collection will be exclusively available in Kohl’s starting July 1st. There will be a few more pieces coming in September and October, and that’s it.

I've gotten a collection of paparazzi pictures to show Britney's casual style. She certainly likes to mix her pieces (plaid shirt over what looks like a dress, choker with a white tee and denim shorts)!

I'm interested in seeing the collection: are you?
