We featured the Hellz “The Rest Is Her Story” Autumn lookbook last week and now comes word from the brand that it’s launching accessories, starting with this studded “Head B*tch” leather cuff, now available on Karmaloop.

Here is an ad scan from the June/July issue of Nylon magazine, which speaks to a collabo between watch company Baby-G and Married to the MOB. If you visit ShannonElaine, where we spotted this, you can see another one featuring Baby-G and and HellzBellz (two seperate collabos, mind you, not all three together). I’ve got an email in to M.O.B. designer Leah McSweeney on details…let’s see what she’s willing to give up.

UPDATE: Finally heard from Ms. McSweeney. Neither the watch in the ad featured here or in the Hellz ad are a collaborative effort. Both brands are doing a collabo with Baby-G, but at least in the case of MOB, it won’t hit retail until November 2011.
