Taylor Swift Style – Reformation candid predictions

French Connection, ModCloth, Anthropologie and Free People. What do these brands have in common? Taylor Swift went through phases for each of these stores where she near-exclusively wore pieces from them. Now, she’s turned to vintage-inspired and eco-friendly recycling brand Reformation. So far, we’ve seen Taylor wear skirts (x, x) and dresses (x, x) from the brand.

Here’s a few of my predictions.

  • Primrose Dress – $198.00
    – If Taylor wanted to start wearing more schoolgirl inspired outfits (totally okay by me!) then this sexy bodycon/long-sleeve dress (a favourite silhouette of Taylor’s) would be the perfect choice. Check out that deep v-neck (another fave neckline for Taylor).
  • Dani Dress – $198.00
    – Taylor loves her prints. Among her favourites are stripes and polka dots. The mini length, floaty a-line and innate feminine quality of this dress would suit Taylor perfectly.
  • Ibiza Dress – $98.00
    – Another easy choice. Featured in a familiar silhouette to Taylor, she wore a similar striped dress last year so we know it’s a look that works for her.
  • Cambridge Dress – $218.00
    – This pick was just for me as I think the lace, the colour and the open back would look sultry and sexy on Taylor’s tall frame.

What do you think TSS-ers? Are there any other Reformation items you could see Taylor in? Or has her love for the brand already been transferred somewhere else?

Taylor Swift Style – 2014 Grammys

With a week to go until the Grammys (airing Sunday, January 26) I thought long and hard about my gown predictions. Historically, Taylor has always worn full-length gowns to this event. And with her up for the most prestigious award of the night (Album of the Year) it’s undoubted she’ll wear anything but a gown.

You can see all the times Taylor has attended this event here.

  • Naeem Khan Pre-Fall 2014
    – If Taylor is going to insist on wearing red continuously to award shows (despite my protests), this Naeem Khan gown with intricate laser cutouts (which recalls this Giles gown her friend Dianna Agron wore to the 2012 Golden Globes) and sheer panel at the bust combines several of Taylor’s loves into one dress. Bonus points? If you look carefully at the details near the hemline the dress incorporates a beautiful rose pattern.
    My previous prediction to hint at an upcoming floral-inspired album didn’t hit the mark. But I think this combines both the RED and the rumoured Roses theme quite well.
  • Zuhair Murad Spring 2014
    – Taylor has not been shy for her love of cutouts and Zuhair Murad. I believe this gown would be the perfect send off to the RED era as this should be the last awards ceremony Taylor attends where she is nominated for her work from this album. The elegant neckline and swirled sleeves create a bit more elegance than the sleeveless red Naeem gown.
  • Armani Privé Fall 2013 Couture
    – The dark horse prediction. Now hear me out. Even though Taylor has never worn Armani Privé on the red carpet and I can already hear some of you telling me how this gown would wash her out, check out the equally blonde, blue-eyed and fair-skinned Claire Danes and Eva Riccobono pull off similar gowns from this same collection. Considering the importance of this night for Taylor – she has likely been anticipating an Album of the Year nomination for RED since its release in 2012 – it would be wonderful if she would consider amping up the elegance and glamour by selecting a couture gown.
    Besides. The allover floral pattern, the illusion neckline and the soft, feminine silhouette of this gown could add up to be the jolt of maturity and grace that Taylor’s red carpet style could evolve into.
  • Elie Saab Fall 2013 Couture
    – Do I actually think Taylor will wear this s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g (and my favourite from the collection) emerald green Elie Saab gown? No. But it’s green. It’s couture. It’s not overly sparkly. It is everything I have ever wished for Taylor to put on her body. A girl can dream.

What do you think, TSS-ers? Are any of my picks possible? Have any of your own? Or do you think Taylor will surprise us all in something completely different?

— Simply stunning. Taylor chose a mature Gucci Premiere silver column gown for the 2014 Grammys.

Poll Results: TSS will post more commentary!

So, an overwhelming majority (about 60% of you) want to see more commentary on TSS’ posts! And TSS-ers I can’t tell you how much that means to me. To know that anyone, let alone a whole bunch of people, want to know my opinion on fashion? You guys literally make my dreams come true every day. So I’m going to try really hard to voice my opinions more and I hope you all do too via comments or by using a Disqus if you have one.

Now, for the few people (about 4%) who preferred not reading my opinions or any text at all aside from the identification and linking posts I am going to offer two possible options:

1.) Check out TSS on our other social media sites. TSS is on Pinterest and Instagram and both accounts only feature a photo post and designer information in the ID. I understand this may be inconvenient if you aren’t already on either of those platforms, so my other possible suggestion is:

2.) TSS starts using ‘Read More’ cuts. Aside from relevant text (the event, location, date, designer info, Worn with: and Also worn: links), all commentary/opinion will be placed under a ‘Read More’ for the people who do want to read it.

I understand that I can’t please everyone, but gosh darnit I can try!

I’m going to experiment with this for the next few weeks but I’m mostly going to leave it up to you guys. Feel free to drop a message – Anonymous or not – in my inbox or leave a comment on this post. I love hearing your feedback on the site and with your help it can only get better from here.

So let me know if you think TSS should use ‘Read More’ cuts or not?

Poll: How important is Taylor Swift Style’s commentary/opinion to you?

I’ve gotten a lot of messages recently asking for more of my personal commentary and opinions to each of my posts. Call it a lack of self-confidence, but I guess I just wasn’t aware that you guys wanted to hear more from me!

So I felt a poll was necessary. Your opinion is extremely important to me and I’d love to hear from you guys!
