I’m the eternal optimist.  That is probably why, despite all the unflattering news of Britney Spears, I still believe there is hope for her.  Heck, if Drew Barrymore, poster children for bad behavior, can clean up her act, then maybe Britney can as well (and I really hope so for her children’s sake).

In the clothing arena, Britney can start to rectify her fashion faux-paus by wearing clothing appropriate for the weather.  Take these Timberland boots seen on Britney not once, but thrice during the last few weeks. The weather in LA was in the 80s and 90s.  The boots are definitely cute, but are more fitting during the winter months, perhaps while snowboarding in the mountains.

So unless Britney as some very cold feet, may I suggest that a step in the right direction would be a nice pair of sandals instead?

Pink Timberland Mukluk boot can be purchased at Zappos for $111

If you are looking for some pink Timberlands that are more appropriate for the summer, how about this cute Timberland hempstead wedge ? It’s available at Zappos for $45.

Nicole Richie can’t seem to keep herself out of the tabloids, it’s true, but say what you will about her weight, her boyfriends, her is-she-or-isn’t-she pregnancy rumors, sometimes those pics show everyone her fabulous shoes to great advantage.

Check out these Louboutin black peep-toe pumps that she rocks at various events.

At the LA Film Fest premiere of The Devil Wears Prada in June 2006.

A week later at Charlize Theron’s Africa Outreach Project debut.

November 2006 at the launch of Playstation 3.

Also in November 06, Nicole rocks her Louboutins with a dress that matches their signature red sole at the after party for the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.

And a few weeks later, she covers them in long wide-leg pants at the unveiling of Volkswagon’s Tiguan SUV.

If you’re looking to add a classic black Louboutin peep-toe pump like Nicole’s to your wardrobe, try this patent leather version (also available in white), which is $710 at Neiman Marcus.

The Stella McCartney sandal featured in this installment of I Really Love my..shoe was first highlighted by our very own blogger, Shoesense, in a blog entitled The Naturals.

Kate Beckinsale was then identified by the incredibly talented Celebrity Shoe Spotter, Shoebunny, as wearing the Stella McCartneys earlier this month.

We’ve recently spotted Kate in other stylish outfits with the natural McCartney sandal and I gotta say, I didn’t like the chucky natural look before, but Kate is really making it quite attractive.

Ah, doesn’t she look cute with her hubby?

One of my favorite columns fom People Magazine is called I really love my…. The section focuses on a particular article of clothing or accessories that a celebrity wears over and over again and shows you how to get the look. To me, there must be something particularly special about the item in order for a celebrity, who seemingly has gads of money and designer freebies knocking down their doors, to favor the item and commit the faux paux of wearing the same thing more than once.

The first of Shoeblog’s shoe version of this column is brought to you by Jessica Alba, a disgustingly gorgeous actress who seems to have escaped the Hollywood rehab circuit unlike some other young starlets.

Here is Jessica Alba in different outfits wearing the same ballerina flats and what looks like a bright blue Chanel purse out and about.
