Rachel Bilson plans to further explore the world of fashion with a new line of shoes for the social commerce company Beachmint

The collection will be called ShoeMint and will sport affordable and fashionable styles for $79.99.  It will be featured exclusively online and will be revealed just in time for the holidays during winter of 2011.  Bilson is collaborating with Steven Madden and her stylist Nicole Chavez to create the collection. 

The actress has always been passionate about fashion and shoes.  According to People Magazine, she says “I'm always exploring new mediums and footwear is a category I've always been very passionate about, especially since I'm only a size 5.” Bilson is no stranger to the world of fashion or design.  She collaborated with DKNY Jeans to create a Junior Sportswear line back in 2008 and graces the covers of style magazines every week. 

BeachMint has worked with many celebrities over the years.  Kate Bosworth and her stylist Cher Coulter created the jewelry collection JewelMint last October, while Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen teamed up for StyleMint.  Jessica Simpson is also offering her professional advice to help BeautyMint, a personalized beauty system.  The company is a member’s only site and provides users with a personalized experience.  It gives them a selection of merchandise every month that is based off the user’s tastes and is available at a set price. 

The BeachMint website describes the collaboration as a mixture of “Rachel's signature style and Nicole's fashion expertise” as well as “Steve's extraordinary craftsmanship and design.” It is definitely something to look forward to.
