Avril Lavigne is coming out with her own line of clothing and claims to be a fashion designer. Since when does trying on clothes make one a designer?

NEW YORK - Avril Lavigne, known for her pairing of frilly dresses and combat boots, will bring her style to the juniors department at Kohl's department stores.

"I actually am the designer," she told Newsweek for editions on newsstands Monday. "I try everything on and approve it all."

She joined a long line of celeb-turned-designers, including Gwen Stefani, Jennifer Lopez and Jessica Simpson.

Lavigne kicked off her 2008 world tour in Victoria, B.C., Canada, earlier this month.
