A year after launching her Abbey Dawn collection for juniors at Kohl’s stores, punk princess Avril Lavigne is extending the line to include clothing for younger girls as well. The Abbey Dawn children’s line will debut in two weeks and will be a cuddlier version of the singer’s own rock and roll style, featuring layered tees with friendly skull graphics and comfy leggings. “We have a really cute zebra hoodie with ears,” she says, “and I’m like, ‘Can I fit into the extra-large? Because I really like these!’” In addition to helping kids find their inner bad girls, Lavigne will debut a new fragrance with Proctor & Gamble called Black Star this summer. “It’s really me in a bottle,” she says of the perfume, which took two years to create. She’s also recording an upcoming album, due out in November. Lavigne says that her fashion and beauty endeavors are a reflection of her own evolving personal style. Although she’s traded in her tomboyish skateboard sneakers for high heels, she makes sure to hang on to her style roots. “I mix rock and roll elements with high-end stuff now — I love Chanel,” she says. “I’m just more feminine now, but my style still has everything I’ve ever liked.”–Christina Yoon
