Back in college, more than one friend had the ringtone set to “Circus” whenever I called them. But we’re not here to talk about me and my undying love of circus-themed apparel. We’re here to talk about Britney Spears, who turns 34 on Wednesday. From live snakes to snakeskin pants, Spears has undoubtedly made an indelible mark on pop music—and matching denim outfits. Enjoy some of her most jaw-dropping looks in celebration of another year on earth.
And always remember: If Britney Spears survived 2007, you can make it through today.
