She’s making the most of her high-profile title, and last night Miss California USA 2010 Nicole Johnson was spotted doing some shopping.

The brunette babe looked to be having a marvelous date as she combed the racks at Artisan De Luxe while nearby shutterbugs snapped up pictures.

Miss Johnson was quietly crowned Miss California USA 2010 last

month after Carrie Prejean was stripped of her title earlier that year.

Of her win, the 24-year-old Ventura County gal told press, “I think it was my presentation.  I was very confident on the stage, and I stood out in a red gown.  So I think perhaps that was it.”
