Listen, we know you're probably STILL eyeballs deep in holiday shopping right now, and your bank account is weeping uncontrollably with every new swipe of your credit card, but just remember: there's a light at the end of the tunnel. The light's called "Spring/Summer 2013," and thanks to our friends at Lil Wayne's breakout streetwear line, Trukfit, we have more than enough ocular helpings of sneak peek neon and prints and skater steez to tide us over until this collection hits stores in January. We got a special tour of Trukfit's New York headquarters courtesy of Trukfit's VP of Merchandising, Frances Wong, Marketing Manager, Mike Morris, and their publicist, Sarah Cunningham, all of whom showed us what's on the horizon for future seasons of Weezy's line. Also, they dropped some serious industry knowledge on how Wanye's ideas become actual, physical clothes, and we nerded out, hanging on every word.

Kanye West, Jean Touitou

Are Kanye West and Jean Touitou working on a collaboration?

Kanye West is one of the best dressed dudes in the game, and while he's already bestowed unto the world TWO full runway collections, we are forever anxiously awaiting Ye's next foray into fashion design. We understand, though, that Yeezy is a busy busy man, and this year has been especially eventful with releasing Cruel Summer, assembling G.O.O.D. Music, wearing leather kilts, and reading the Grace Coddington memoir. BUT thanks to one fateful Twitpic via A.P.C. founder Jean Touitou, there might be a glimmer of hope for us yet!

No Doubt and one of the pieces from the band's new Fred Perry collection.

Between partnerships with the late Amy Winehouse, Brit designer Richard Nicoll, and Olympian Bradley Wiggins, Fred Perry has already seen its fair share of awesomely creative collabs. But the brand's newest collaboration is SO genius, SO organically perfect, that we're kind of wondering what took so long for it to happen in the first place. The British label is teaming up with No Doubt on a mini-collection of polos, sweaters, and jackets influenced by music and street fashion...in other words, two major inspirations that both groups clearly share. The capsule will include classic Fred Perry styles like the slim fitting collared shirts and v-neck knits, but this time expect details like punky tartan plaid and Reggae red, green, and gold piping. Considering they've been fans of the company since the very beginning, consider No Doubt for Fred Perry an extension of the band's own uniform.

Kristin Cavallari Chinese Laundry Shoe Collection

This summer, Kristin Cavallari announced that she was creating a shoe capsule collection with Chinese Laundry, but now it's actually, really, finally here. Eeee! It's no surprise the ex-Hillsie was tapped to create her own line since she's always rocking the most killer platform stilettos, and when she hosted a launch party right here in NYC, it was filled with JUST that. Her collection includes six mostly-pastel options inspired by her style and what she likes to wear, according to WWD. There's embellished flats perfect for everyday use, a signature go-to nude pump, a party-ready mesh ankle bootie, a pointy wrap-around stiletto that looks perfect for work, an ankle-strap pointy heel to step it up a notch, and a cute-to-boot ballet flat with a bow rope detail.

Rihanna knows it's December. She knows the northern hemisphere is in the middle of winter right now. But is that stopping her from sharing her upcoming Spring/Summer collection collaboration with River Island? Nope. Not one bit. And if you think she stopped after giving everyone a first look at that RI suede jumpsuit yesterday, you're wrong. The "Diamonds" singer Instagrammed a picture of herself posing alongside a few models (one of them being the lovely Miss Jourdan Dunn!) after wrapping the shoot for her upcoming ad campaign.

OH. MY. GAH. The time has finally come, friends: Rihanna's River Island collection is here! Back in July, we lost our shiz when RiRi announced she was collabing with the British clothing brand, and then almost died AGAIN in early November when she Instagrammed a pic of herself with the caption, "Me! Spring/ summer collection with River Island is in the bag! #designerlife #RIHverIsland." But today, we have our FIRST EVER look at an actual living, breathing piece from the collection, and we can baaarely handle it. River Island posted a pic of Ri on their Facebook page with the caption, "Rihanna wearing the navy jumpsuit from her Rihanna for River Island collection in LA! Coming to a store near you and online at riverisland.com in spring 2013." Eeeeee!

If there's one thing we've learned about Ke$ha over the years, it's that this girl LOVES her accessories (see: studded hair, epic gold earpiece, and consistently over-the-top music vid style). Get ready, because now the singer's putting this signature "more is more" approach to good use with a brand new jewelry line that represents pretty much all of the above. She's teamed up with Charles Albert on a mixed-media collection of rings, bracelets and necklaces featuring everything from arrowheads to sharks to skulls. She's EVEN taking cues from that teeth headdresswith an "edgy and raw" piece made out of metal cast human teeth. Wait...what?!

Justin Bieber

While the status of Justin Bieber's IRL girlfriend may be up in the air, J.Bieb's Girlfriend perfume is rock steady and gets a press reboot just in time for the holiday season *WINK* with its very first commercial! Where Girlfriend is the "I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman" next-step from Bieber's Someday debut scent, the ad spot for the new fragrance is similarly more mature. It's not mature in, like, a Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for Burberry Body way. We just mean that Bieber and the new fragrance take one appropriate, teenage-sized step away from Someday and its whispered promises and luxury ice cream sundaes.

Along with that epic, never ending Lauren/Stephen love triangle, here's one thing we'll always remember from Laguna Beach: Kristin Cavallari's killer choker game (click here for a refresher). And while we may not have realized it then, the '90s accessory staple has TOTALLY come back— so who knows, maybe she was officially onto something all those years ago. Kristin knew what was happening then, and now she's putting that jewelry sixth sense to good use for the masses with- wait for it- a brand new jewelry line! The reality star-turned-new mom has joined forces with GLAMboutique.com on a collection of rings, bangles and necklaces...all priced at a surprisingly affordable $7-$100. Not too shabby, right?! Oh, and her business partner Pascal Mouawad is also the man behind Nicole Richie's super sucessful House of Harlow label, so clearly the guy knows what he's talking about (including what we'll be dying to add to our jewelry stash come 2013).

I love these two as a couple. What a festive way to celebrate two important events in their life. Mariah looks like a dream.
