"I've always been a big fan of clothes. I love drawing. It's a fun little side job for me to do."
The actress joins Sarah Jessica Parker and Vanessa Williams with clothing collections at Steve & Barry's. "It's very exciting. I love them both. It's a very fun thing for me," she said.
The "Dear" fashion line launched at Steve & Barry's stores on August 16. All of the items are guaranteed to be priced below $20. The clothes are targeted towards teenage girls. "It's a fast selling line," the actress said.
Everything was designed by the star herself. Steve & Barry's ran some ideas by her but she had to give final approval before anything was produced. Bynes said: "It took about six months to a year" to go from ideas on paper to the final product.
What does the 21-year-old star enjoy more...performing in a movie, for a TV show or designing clothes? "I love them both," she said. "I always loved performing. I always loved drawing. I hope I don't have to get rid of one of them. Let's just say a little bit of both."

Amanda's Dear tour comes to an end today in Charlotte, North Carolina. I hope now she gets to take some time off to relax for the holidays!
