Kincaid) to create a new line for Spring, aptly (and hilariously) called MR x PJK...Just Sayin'.

In news that does not surprise us at all, the always-stylish Rachel Bilson will be the next celebrity to partner with BeachMint on a new ecommerce site. Bilson follows fellow actresses-cum-designers Kate Bosworth (JewelMint) and Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen (StyleMint) and singer Jessica Simpson (BeautyMint) in collaborating with the social commerce platform. Like Kate, Rachel is working with her friend and stylist Nicole Chavez. And since jewelry, tees and beauty products are all covered, they're doing footwear! The site, which is set to launch in November, will be called ShoeMint and they are partnering with Steve Madden on affordable shoes. We love Rachel's style and have to admit we kind of saw this coming--she was JewelMint's first guest curator and like Kate, Rachel is one of those actresses who, regardless of whether or not she's working on anything, is constantly in magazines and gossip blogs because of what she's wearing. I mean, her most memorable acting role is still The O.C., which ended in 2007 and she hasn't really fallen off our radar since. Though, her new show Hart of Dixie seems promising (right?).
