From #freeBritney to #freedBritney, the journey to freedom has been a long one for Britney Spears.

But now, finally independent, Britney Spears is enjoying her newfound freedom in the sweetest possible ways.

She stepped out on a quick shopping trip just a day before thanksgiving, and looked amazing and happy, as she does in her recent Instagram videos.

In fact, fans have been remarking on how happy and “fresh” Britney looks in her recent Instagram videos.

Her Christmas tree is already up and this time, after four years, Britney has it bedecked in red. Clearly, love is in the air.

Britney has also been posting sweet nothings about Sam Asghari and how he killed it in the House of Gucci premiere.

At the same time, she has also sent out a shoutout to Lady Gaga and how she is always an inspiration to Spears too.

Meanwhile the shoppers and staff at The Oaks shopping center in Thousand Oaks, California got to see Britney Spears in action.

Social media is buzzing about those red boots and white puffer jacket, with the near schoolgirl plaid-skirt that Britney wore. But most of all, it’s her smile that’s making her fan happy for her.
