Prices for the dresses, leggings, skirts and tops will range from $19.95 to $44.95.

'I definitely lean more towards a laid-back look, which makes my style a great match for Hollister,' Miss Hale told WWD. 'I wanted to create carefree outfits that effortlessly transition from a coffee run to going out.'

 

Michael Scheiner, senior director of marketing and public relations for Abercrombie & Fitch, which owns Hollister, said that Miss Hale’s 'easygoing personality goes hand in hand with our Hollister lifestyle.'

Indeed, Miss Hale, who is often spotted in playful dresses and comfortable T-shirts while out and about in Los Angeles, told Seventeen that the line reflects her own personal style.

'With lots to do for PLL, my music, and now my fashion collection for Hollister, I need transitional pieces that keep up with my schedule,' she said.

She added: 'Pieces that are carefree and effortless without ever looking less than fabulous. This collection is perfect for taking you from a morning coffee to a dinner with friends.'
