With summer in full swing, it’s tough to imagine but back-to-school shopping will be here sooner than we think. Happily, Madonna is giving us something to look forward to with Material Girl, the junior’s collection that the mega-star is designing with her 13-year-old daughter, Lourdes Leon (a.k.a. Lola). The just-released sketches of the fall 2010 collection, which is set to debut on August 3, definitely got us excited for the adorable mix of flirty minidresses, cute accessories, skinny jeans, and on-trend jackets, which will retail for an affordable $12 to $40 exclusively at Macy’s and macys.com. Almost makes us wish it was August already! Only a few more weeks to go!Tell us: Are you excited to shop Madonna and Lola’s Material Girl collection? –Marissa Patlingrao Cooley

NEW YORK (CBS) Taylor Momsen is going from "Gossip Girl" to Material Girl. The actress, who plays good-girl-gone-bad Jenny Humphrey on the CW series, has been revealed as the face of Material Girl, the juniors clothing line for Macy's co-designed by Madonna and her 13-year-old daughter, Lourdes Leon.

A promotional image for the line shows Momsen in a striped skirt and gray top, complete with leather boots and loads of silver bangles.

Momsen's grungy, rocker style seems to fit the clothes, but the 16-year-old actress is often photographed smoking cigarettes and has said she has no intention of wanting to be a role model for her fans and some have wondered whether critics will protest her appointment as the face of a tween-oriented line.
Leon, who has become a budding fashionista as she's grown up and even blogged about her love for vintage shops, Oxford shoes and '80s fashion on the clothing line's website, could easily have modeled the line herself. Maybe her famous mother said no to going in front of the camera?
