Scarlett Johansson has designed a handbag to raise money for Haiti.

The 'Iron Man' actress has sketched designs for a stylish ivory bag with a map print, which will be sold at international high street store Mango - whose spring collection she has fronted - to boost relief funds for the earthquake-stricken nation through global charity Oxfam.

She said: "I'm thrilled to be collaborating with Mango to promote conscious consumerism and to benefit Oxfam's Haiti Earthquake Response Fun. By purchasing this bag, which I specially designed, you are helping to provide life saving assistance like clean water to the people of Haiti."

The 25-year-old beauty's handiwork also contains the words: "supporting the people of Haiti, designed by Scarlett Johansson."

Please help us do our part for the Children of Haiti by purchasing this 6126 legging

The bag will go on sale in March for $29.90, and a cut of the proceeds will be donated to Oxfam.

Scarlett is not the only celebrity to use their fashion skills to help the Caribbean nation.

Lindsay Lohan and Jessica Simpson have also used clothes to help the charity fundraising.

The 'Mean Girls' actress promised to donate 100 per cent of the proceeds of her 6126 leggings line to the Children of Haiti appeal.

She said: "It is truly horrible what has happened to the people and children in Haiti. I believe every company should do their part to help by donating what they can. Please help us do our part for the Children of Haiti by purchasing this 6126 legging."

She also reduced the price of her collection, for a limited period.

Meanwhile, Jessica and her friends Cacee Cobb and Ken Paves are on a mission to collect 50,000 pairs of shoes in 50 days through the Soles4Soles charity.
