Jessica Simpson expands her half a billion dollar empire





Jess tweeted today the debut of her new luggage line. Take a look:






































There are a few more items if you take a look at her site. Say what you will about her singing/personal life...but she (and her team) have made a fortune with her personal line. Good for her

From the May 2009 issue of Vanity Fair:

Jessica on the Jessica Simpson brand:
“The Jessica Simpson Collection is a $400 million business. My mom and I are creative directors. We have hundreds of people working, but nothing gets by us. It’s adorable and it’s affordable. What’s amazing right now, during this recession, is that, somehow, the business keeps growing.”

(it's now valued at 500M)
mediapass Re: she has half a billion dollar empire? o rly ?2nd-Mar-2010 09:04 pm (UTC)
WOW. I never knew the exact number thats incredible. Good for her.
madbiscuit Re: she has half a billion dollar empire? o rly ?2nd-Mar-2010 09:13 pm (UTC)
She's the type of girl, like the Olsens, who can probably carry those light, cheap lines at Macy's or Wal-Mart.

Mind you, I'm not knocking it, there's alot of money to be made.
bob80 Re: she has half a billion dollar empire? o rly ?2nd-Mar-2010 09:05 pm (UTC)
Yeah..so all the people constantly making fun of her and calling her a has been can continue to do so without her giving a fuck. Bitch is loaded and living the life.
brandy Re: she has half a billion dollar empire? o rly ?2nd-Mar-2010 11:01 pm (UTC)
IA, although I would be more impressed if I hadn't just learned that Raven Symone is worth $400 million today.
tranboleyn 2nd-Mar-2010 08:43 pm (UTC)
She looks like she's shitting into one of the suitcases.
truelasher 2nd-Mar-2010 08:43 pm (UTC)
Good for her. And every girl I know EVERY- worship how comfortable and well fitting her shoes are!
ninjarina That's funny2nd-Mar-2010 08:50 pm (UTC)
I found her shoes to be uncomfortable, ill-fitting, and shoddily made.
sweetmizre Re: That's funny2nd-Mar-2010 08:51 pm (UTC)
same here but i like her bags
dss1984 2nd-Mar-2010 10:14 pm (UTC)
I had a pair of her wedge loafers that were really cute and comfortable, but poorly made. They literally started coming apart a couple of months after I got them. And when I pay $100 for shoes, I expect to get more than 2 months worth of wear out of them. I thought maybe I just got a defective pair and ended up buying another pair of shoes from her line and they hurt my feet so badly that I couldn't even wear them. I will never buy anything from her line again.
