Channel Taylor Swift's Style With 10 Pieces That Are Here To Stay, Stay, Stay
I don't know about you, but I'm feeling like 24-year-old Taylor Swift is finally starting to hit her sartorial stride. Though she once favored romantic tulle dresses covered in more glitter than you'd find in the average craft store for her red carpet appearances, Swift now prefers more sophisticated silhouettes with fewer bells and whistles — and the effect is utterly enviable. If you find yourself pining for a dreamy floral dress or insouciant high-waisted shorts like the ones Swift favors, I have you covered with these ten chic pieces. Cue your best T. Swift happy/surprised face.
Black High-Waisted Shorts and White Blouse
Nobody loves their high-waisted shorts like Taylor Swift does, except perhaps Zooey Deschanel. This menswear-inspired ensemble strikes the perfect balance of quirk and class. Swift offsets the formality of her satin blouse and fedora with rebellious leather shorts.

Long-Sleeved Burgundy Dress
Long sleeves don’t have to be synonymous with prim, and Swift proves that covered skin can be sexy with this tailored dress. When paired with bold red lips and loose waves, the look is the perfect laid-back approach to cocktail dressing.

Sleeveless Floral Dress
What better way to channel the country singer than with a pristine floral dress? Swift’s classic, vintage vibe is epitomized in this simple sleeveless dress with a watercolor, painterly print, accented with the singer’s signature red lip, of course.
White Cut Out Dress
As much as the Love Story singer favors a good print, she also knows the value of an understated, well-tailored dress. This white sleeveless number showcases her luminous makeup and swept-back hair to great effect. The finishing touch? A brilliant smile, of course.
White Tuxedo
Taylor Swift rarely wears menswear on the red carpet, but when she does, she rocks it. Her slim, white tuxedo is complemented by pin-straight locks, statement earrings and dramatic makeup.
Grey Skinny Jeans
Swift knows the value of a good pair of grey skinny jeans, especially when paired with a loose tank and flowing curls.
Peasant Blouse
Swift looks especially chic when she tries a streamlined 60s ensemble, and this peasant blouse and shorts pairing gives the singer a more sophisticated air. Straightened hair and a bold cat-eye add extra vintage flair.
Black Skater Skirt and Sparkling Top
Swift’s love affair with skater skirts is not only well-documented, it’s also extraordinarily natty. Swift tones down the volume of the skirt by adding a slim black top and her trusty black tights.

Blue Patterned Dress
What could be more lovely on T.Swift than a delicately patterned blue dress and a beautifully mussed updo? Not much. The actress keeps her look youthful by choosing understated jewelry and makeup.
