Michelle Trachtenberg to Design Jewelry for Coach

Gossip Girl cutie Michelle Trachtenberg has signed a new deal with handbag designer Coach. But she’s leaving the baggage behind and focusing on jewelry.

According to WWD, Michelle will be creating a new collection of jewelry for the brand’s Poppy line. It will feature costume jewelry, and will include colorful crystals, faux pearls, and intricate hardware to attract Coach’s younger customers.

This is Trachtenberg's second foray into the accessories world. In 2006, she launched a line called Bella, a line of one-of-a-kind pieces made with semi-precious stones. The new collection will be available in the spring.
