Britney Spears is in dire need of a makeover, so it is with great pleasure that we pass along a report of some progress in the style department.

It’s about time Brit Brit dresses like a rich lady!

According to In Touch Weekly, Spears met with a personal shopper last week and told her she was interested in “the kind of stuff Katie Holmes wears.”

Before the afternoon was up, Britney spent a whopping $32,849 on designer duds. Her new purchases included three Chanel handbags, shoes by Manolo Blahnik, silk shirts by old time luxury designers like Oscar De La Renta, Valentino and Yves Saint Laurent, and underwear from La Perla and Cosabella. “She wants to go from trashy to classy,” says a friend of the singer.

Baby steps, right?

Certainly, money has never been the issue for Britney, so it makes sense that she consult a professional and buy some duds better suited her international superstar status.

Let’s just watch to see if a) she wears the stuff and wears it well, and b) she fastens it properly.

A nip slip is still a nip slip, no matter what your shirt cost.
