Cheryl Cole becomes shoe designer

Cheryl Cole has designed her first shoe collection.

The 'Promise This' hitmaker has teamed up with fashion website StylistPick.com to create the limited edition footwear line which is set to hit stores in December.

Stylist Pick's chief creative officer, Juliet Warkentin said. "We are thrilled to be working with Cheryl. Cheryl is the style icon and is amazingly warm, a quality that has made her the nation's favourite. We believe that the launch will have a huge fashion impact; establishing fashion's greatest influencer as a major force in fashion design and further democratising fashion."

Cheryl's collection will be "glamorous" with accessible price points and the 28-year-old singer has overseen "every step of the process, from concept to design and packaging".

The new line is part of a wider collaboration between the Girls Aloud star and the fashion website as she is set to choose her favourite pieces from their online collection and will also share style tips with site users.

Cheryl is currently in Afghanistan on a mission to raise troops morale.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror Cole said: "I always had admiration for what the guys do out here, but seeing them here at work is awe inspiring. I'm delighted to be here to recognise all the hard work they do. Every one of them is a hero in my book."
