Master jeweler Tom Binns has announced he's broadening his horizons and turning his attentions to handbag design.

Tom's luxury leather accessories line will debut in spring. While many of the details are being kept under wraps, apparently one white leather handbag will feature on-trend metal studs. We'll also be able to grab Tom Binns' purses in three sizes, so perhaps we can expect a mix of small evening and larger day bags. The prices aren't so bad either, with the handbags retailing between $650 and $1850.

But that's not all that's on Tom's plate. He'll also release a soccer-themed collection with Puma. The release of the sporty jewelry and bags will coincide with the World Cup. He's also teamed up with Corto Moltedo to create a limited-edition crucifix-embellished "Sunday" handbag. Yet he still found time to create a collection of wearable sculptures, which we'll see at the Art Basel Miami in December.

They say that there's no rest for the wicked, so Tom Binns must be a very naughty boy!
