Ali Landry Launches Belle Parish

Actress / model / mom Ali Landry has a new baby -- her kids fashion line Belle Parish. Inspired by the birth of her daughter Estela, 2, the line is full of classic style. With pale colors, traditional cuts, and intricate details, the collection is ideal for girly girls.

On the inspiration for the line, Landry says:

"During my pregnancy I started to really think about my roots, my heritage, my childhood, and the women in my family. I quickly realized that I wanted for her what I had as a child and living in LA, a few thousand miles from Louisiana, it didn't seem possible! Shortly after her birth, my mother Renella would send me boxes of clothes neatly packed away from my childhood. When I told her how much I loved them and that I coudln't find anything like that in LA, she quickly took up a love for sewing. Every few months, 'grandmama' would send a box of beautifully sewn clothes for Estela. I was so inspired to share what I loved with other moms and the response was big!"

For now you can get a preview of the collection at belleparish.com. Look for the fashions to hit retailers in Spring 2010.
