The Hills star Lauren Conrad has just released a new Linea Pelle Collection. After designing her own collection this Fall, Lauren designed a coin purse ($45), a clutch ($145) and a bag ($350).

"I love the bag (tote) because it holds so much and the leather is super soft. It is available in three colors. There's also a clutch and a coin purse."

All bags available in these colors: Dark Olive Green, Black, Espresso Brown. All items are for pre-order and will ship in December 2007.

The most surprising part is that they actually look wearable, and the leather seems so soft!
