Alice + Olivia’s Stacey Bendet knows how to keep buzz going. Hot off the heels of her recent NoLita boutique christening, she’s been tapped by Payless to collaborate on a line of shoes.

Expect lots of brightly colored platforms and flip flops with tags between $20 and $30.

Bendet who joins fellow Payless design partners Abaete’s Laura Poretzky and Lela Rose, will debut her collection in the spring 2008.
