Great news Betty White fans, our beloved Golden Girl is launching her own line of clothing — well, hooded sweatshirts and t-shirts actually — scheduled for release this Fall. Betty‘s beautiful visage will grace a few different designs, including this one right here:

For an 88-year-old, Betty White has more street cred than people a quarter of her age. After appearing on “Saturday Night Live” with Jay-Z (and earning the TV show its best ratings in 18 months) and landing a new comedy series called “Hot in Cleveland,” White is launching her own line of T-shirts and hoodies that will hit stores in August. Through an exclusive licensing deal with Jerry Leigh Apparel, a Van Nuys, Calif.-based clothing manufacturer, White’s smiling face was recast as a striking black-and-white mug with her first name outlined in red. Targeting the digital generation, the hoodies feature washable earbuds and a jack to plug into iPods and MP3 players. Portions of sales for the $28 Ts and $48 hoodies will go to the Morris Animal Foundation, an animal health organization, for which White serves as a trustee.

OMG, how much do I love this?! I cannot wait to get my hands on any or all of the available Betty White t-shirts. I love that a portion of the proceeds will benefit the Morris Animal Foundation (as you may recall, proceeds from the sale of the 2011 Betty White Calendar will also benefit the foundation) and I really love that these article of clothing are geared towards a younger, more tech-savvy audience. Brilliant! After the jump, check out some of the Betty White designs that will be made available when this clothing line is released later this year …


I LOVE THEM ALL!! I honestly want to own them all … but if you had to pick just one, which one is YOUR fave?
