International superstar Jennifer Lopez wears many hats, but “designer” is one she is currently hanging back up in the closet in the US.

According to Women’s Wear Daily, the singer/actress is temporarily stopping production of her fashion label Sweetface during these troubled economic times.

“In light of new company strategies, we have decided to put the Sweetface line on hiatus while we prepare to reintroduce the brand in the near future with new messaging points and an entirely new fashion point of view,” a spokesperson for the 6-year-old high-end brand said in a statement on June 24.

But the mom of 16-month-old twins Emme and Max isn’t fading from the spotlight- Jennifer is currently filming her latest flick, The Back-Up Plan, and recently announced that she’s working on a hot new album. In addition, JLO by Jennifer Lopez line is still for sale in foreign stores.

After a three-year absence from the big screen, Lopez tells ET about returning to work, “The few days before I got really nervous I was like, what if I forgot how to act?!” On balancing work with motherhood, she says, “I bring the babies to work with me. I love it. Honestly, one of the best days of my life was the first day back working on this film. I wanted to do this film really badly and bringing my babies with me that first morning, I was like, ‘Oh my God, they’re with me, I’m making a movie, they’re here!’ It’s great having kids on set. It’s the best.”

In The Back-Up Plan from CBS Films, Jennifer plays Zoe, a pet store owner who just can’t find Mr. Right. Desperate to be a mother and tired of waiting, she decides to go it alone and get artificial insemination, only to meet Stan, (”Moonlight” star Alex O’Loughlin) a man with real possibilities, the same day.

Jennifer is in amazing shape for the film and she explains that it wasn’t easy getting back in pre-baby form. “It did take a lot of work,” she admits. “I thought it was gonna drop off easily because I had been in shape my whole life, but it wasn’t. I gained about 50 pounds with my twins, and the first 30 dropped off like that, and I was like, ‘Ha, this is gonna be so easy.’ That last twenty pounds, that took a while.”
