Critically Kind takes on Taylor's fashion
Teen Choice Awards | Hermosa Beach, CA | August 11, 2019
Simone Perele ‘Citadine Underwire Demi Bra’ – $110.00
In addition to the patterned bodysuit, while nice to see this cute bra again, I find the colour and strappy details distracting and would have preferred a clean plunge sans bra.
Worn with: Versace blazer + bodysuit + shorts, Misahara earrings, Emily P Wheeler ring, and Kat Maconie sandals
Also worn: “You Need To Calm Down” music video
Get the look: Forever 21, $9.00

Versace ‘Deep V Neck Bodysuit’ – $1,095.00
In my opinion, this was one print too many. I think a solid print bodysuit would have been a great “resting place” for the eye to temper the loudness of the blazer and shorts.

Kat Maconie ‘Kiko Sandals’ – $269.00 $188.00
I am admittedly incredibly picky when it comes to shoes and I always look for opportunities where a fun shoe moment can be employed. I definitely applaud and appreciate the strappy-ness of the heels but a slim neon like a Jimmy Choo Lance sandal would have been my pick or if we really wanted to go “extra” with pattern the Louboutin ‘Faridararavie’ sandal. I’ve been finding Taylor’s latest love for Kat Maconie sandals to be incredibly refreshing.
All that said, it is nice to see new brands come into play than her usual cycle of Jimmy Choo, Giuseppe Zanotti, and Louboutins, but because these fresh and colourful styles are a bit more cost attainable than the typical price tags of those aforementioned brands.

Versace ‘Barocco Pattern Blazer’ – $3,150.00
How much fun and unexpected is this? While it isn’t the Chanel suit that I predicted, I’ll take a partial win on this suiting moment from Versace. I’ll also take points for short. And that’s where my predictions accuracy stopped. Where I thought Taylor would go light, fluffy, and pastel she veered hard into an overboard of patterns.
My opinion is that this is one pattern (and one random coral bra) too far. I would have swapped the bodysuit for a solid colour (wine or a dark red/pink) and skipped the Simone Perel bralette for a clean neckline.
The teased 60s bouffant and makeup were beautiful choices that really added to the retro fun and flair that the pattern brings.
