Chiefs vs Patriots | Foxborough, MA | December 17, 2023

Vintage ‘Kansas City Chiefs Sweatshirt’ – no longer available

My best guess is this appears to be yet another vintage piece of KC merchandise for Taylor – a similar one pictured here in red. For me, this tactic is fun to see Taylor’s longtime love of vintage fashion (dating back even to 2010-2012) evolve into a way that she can express her recent love of sports (*wink*) while also shopping more sustainably – and often from small businesses.

Worn with: Kut the Knit beanie and Mejuri ring

Out and about | New York City, NY | June 22, 2023

Vintage Philadelphia Eagles sweatshirt
Chris Stapleton ‘Green 47 Hat’ – $30.00
Catbird NYC x Phoebe Bridgers ‘Kissing Skull Friend Charm Set’ – $130.00
Adidas x Ivy Park ‘Savage V4 Sneakers’ – $125.00 (sold out)

Taylor was spotted out in New York appearing to be low-key and sporting some of her most charming personal interests as fashion in one very Princess Diana athleisure-driven outfit.

A Philly Eagles sweatshirt denoting her lifelong love of the team and her home state (and a certain lyric in “gold rush”), a Chris Stapleton (fanmade) hat as reference to his guest vocals on “IBYTAM” (and perhaps beyond?), and a friendship necklace from Eras Tour opener Phoebe Bridgers’ collaborative collection with New York-based jeweller Catbird NYC (a collection we already know she’s worn and loved).

(How many more sidebar commentary parentheses does one caption need?)

Vintage ‘Stone Harbor Sweatshirt’ – not available for purchase

That Russell Athletic logo could have made this sweatshirt belong anywhere as it’s a go-to piece to superimpose localized embroidery on.

My best guess is that Taylor – ever the nostalgic one – felt a pull towards this one for childhood memories spent on the Jersey Shore.

Worn with: Rouje earrings and Gucci ring

Midnights Mayhem with Me | October 5, 2022

Thanks Kelly!

Garland ‘70s Stroller Sweater Set’ – no longer available

One of the most hotly requested items from the Midnights era was Taylor’s outfit worn while cheekily announcing the title of the song “Karma”. I had long suspected that a lot of missing pieces were vintage – which this striped burnout ringer tank is! But not only is it vintage, it’s actually circa the 70s which has been a strong consistent aesthetic theme for Midnights.

Taylor has always loved vintage clothes (hello, RED [2012]). But for me this specificity and attention to detail feels very touching and fun. It reminds me of Taylor’s decision to source and only use instruments for “Carolina” that were made in the time period the book is set in.
