Want to look like Kate Hudson?

Now you can—kind of. The 33-year-old actress has signed on for another season as the face of retailer Ann Taylor. But that's not all: Hudson will also be a guest fashion designer on a capsule collection slated for summer.

"Working with Ann Taylor has been a great creative experience, and there is a really wonderful connection," the working mom told Women's Wear Daily.

Hudson first appeared in the retailer's spring 2012 campaign. Her capsule collection, which marks her first foray into designing, will be available in stores beginning this May, and will be a collaboration with the brand's creative director Lisa Axelson.

"Ann Taylor is great at creating iconic wardrobe staples and updating them season after season. I love that Lisa Axelson is designing clothes for real women."

Go, girl!
