The 4'9" breakout star signed on with a New York firm to manage the licensing of products bearing her name, according to The New York Post. It plans to eventually expand to other categories like fragrances, denim, lingerie, personal care products and home goods to name a few but for now, it'll launch with those slippers, sunglasses and oh yes, all things bling.

The firm, SRG Goodman, explains that Snooki is passionate about a lot of products. "We're being very strategic and selective about who we partner with." And apparently so!
