Jasmine Solano is the Princess of Her Posse.

Ladies, get your wallets out, and quickly!!!
There are only 10 bags available for purchase of this super limited edition Princess of the Posse x Jasmine Solano tote! They are $35.00 bucks and mega cute to boot. There were 50 0f the bags made, but the others were given out to special guests at a Princess of the Posse event….which makes the bag even more exclusive.

Overstand tote by Princess of the Posse.

The bag features a lyric from Solano’s song “That’s Not It” where she says “Princess of the Posse/Overstand the shine”. Just understanding is not enough, you need to overstand! Especially when it comes to the smart design of the tote, which features the plus sign and the circled “R” – a symbol that indicates that a trademark is registered.

Channeling the minimalism of Berlin street culture and the allure of french royalty, the gorgeous new Spring/Summer collection by Princess of the Posse is versatile and striking, proving to be staples in any wardrobe in the warmer months.

  With tees and singlets adorned with the familiar P.O.P flavor, a new twist has been added with the ‘Paranoid Boys‘ tee featuring a fierce graphic print and gold foil detail.  Another favorite - the ‘Rich at Heart‘ singlet is designed as a layering piece that can be switched up and worn as either a singlet or dress, layered, or on its own - perfect for one of those ‘I have nothing to wear!‘ moments.
Aside from singlets and t-shirts the new collection includes an adorable pair of grey bow leggings and a sexy romper versatile enough to wear day or night. To get your hands on the new collection you can head to Karmaloop or the Princess of the Posse online store.

Since the launch of their first collection out of NYC in the Spring of 2008, Princess of the Posse has quickly gained worldwide recognition. This fashion forward women’s brand offers limited runs each season, creating designs that swing freely between art, fashion, glamour and street. This Spring season Princess of the Posse returns to the basics, presenting a collection showcasing the simplicity and beauty of black & white.

Here’s what Kelly has to say about the collection:

This collection was inspired by the minimalism of Berlin street fashion & the allure of French royalty. Always reflecting upon their NY state of mind, P.O.P. honors some of their favorite musicians (Santogold and Ghostface Killah) by citing lyrics that inspire the designers. Princess of the Posse continues to bring you the best in quality fabrics and silhouettes with all the printing and cut goods made in NYC.

We have a lot more with Kelly B., after the jump, including a handwritten survey and M.I.S.S. Crew Q&A!
