While some wondered if Taylor would appear at any NYFW shows this week, a sporty outing to watch a fellow American Taylor (Fritz) in the US Open final is just as fun. And such great symmetry! The gingham print of this dress is sweet and breezy. It calls to mind picnics on the grass, apple pies, and Americana. In other words, a wholesome and summery piece to wear when supporting an American athlete. Love!
The brand is also a longtime Taylor staple. She’s been wearing Reformation pieces since 2012!
Taylor has been on a bit of a Louis V kick as of late, adding these monogrammed earrings to her latest run of pieces that have included two bags and a pair of boots.
Among Taylor’s style pillars include the art of the high/low (mixing high end designer pieces with more approachably priced items) and indie designers. To my eye, it looks like Taylor has added a new eyewear brand to her collection - the humourously named Crap Eyewear which are founded and designed in Los Angeles, CA.
Taylor’s jewelry was, once again, a lot of repeats. Pieces that she’s worn and loved and had in her jewelry box for awhile. Both bracelets seemingly haven’t left her wrists since she wore them to the Chiefs vs Ravens game last week. The #Tiffany ring was an addition she wore on the Eras Tour stage during the first round of dates in London. The #Foundrae crest necklace was worn back in January of this year. Set into a crest, this collection for Foundrae is a celebration of love in all its forms including romantic, platonic, and self. Taylor’s discography, of course, famously “a love letter to love itself” which makes this a perfect piece for her.
The Retrouvai pieces are also familiar. The ‘Magna’ ring Taylor wore to the Super Bowl earlier this year. The heart ring you might recognize as from the “I Bet You Think About Me” music video which Taylor’s friend Blake Lively directed. This ring also just so happens to be Blake’s. It was a bespoke commission as part of the brand’s Heirloom collection and comprises an 8-carat heart shaped rubellite set off with a halo of 2.5-carat diamonds. Designer Kirsty Stone described Blake as a “true jewelry lover” and the “incredible” opportunity it was to design something for “her personal collection.”
For a coordinating pop of red against her gingham check dress. This was a cute pairing! You might also recognize this bag from the London candids in June.

Calzedonia 'Sheer 40 Denier Tights’ - $10.00 $5.00 (on sale) [Thanks Anon!]
Saint Laurent 'Le 5 à 7 Hobo Bag’ - $2,650.00
Reformation 'River Boot’ - $478.00
Taylor’s love of Gant’s outerwear continues - this time in an oversized shearling jacket that’s a spin on a classic aviator style and feels very cozy wintery and stands as a nice proportional contrast to her (repeat) Miu Miu skirt we previously saw her wear while on a date with Travis in Argentina when one of her shows was rained out and postponed. Taylor also owns this particular mini in another plaid check print.
One thing that I feel like Taylor does often is create interesting, unexpected, colour palettes with her outfits. It’s something she’s done for a long time that feels very classically ‘her’. If it were me, I would have done a sandwich style moment and opted either for the same camel tone as her Saint Laurent bag in both her carry item and boots or perhaps even both a dark chocolate brown to tie into the piping on her Gant jacket. As-is, her 'ruby’ Reformation boots create a colour (albeit Christmas-y) contrast.

Reformation ‘Lolita Platform Loafer’ - $348.00
Based on Taylor’s longtime love of the brand, my best guess from photos is Taylor’s platform loafers are these by Reformation.
The combination of a pleated skirt and a heeled loafer bring me back to Speak Now days for Taylor - it’s a youthful leaning fashion combination for Taylor that feels core to her feminine style and I love here that there’s an athletic twist to her tried and true schoolgirl style.
Worn with: Ellie Mae sweatshirt, Cartier necklace, Foundrae bracelet, and Jacquie Aiche bracelets

Reformation ‘Radlee Knit Dress’ - $98.00
I love the fall-forward palette here (Taylor does fall fashion so well). Recognizing that the duster/long denim jacket here is the #fashun moment and that its proportion balances out the tall boots with the short dress, I wonder if in terms of silhouette and overall colour palette a washed black denim jacket (oversized) would have played better.
Or even a long wool camel coat for those fall leaves vibes.

Reformation ‘Amira Slingback Loafers’ - $248.00
Another example of Taylor combining her typical style with current trends. Lug sole loafers and this type of slingback take on a chunky loafer are popular as of late and I like the overall cohesive attempt to coordinate grounding black pieces with our first shot of true, vibrant colour in some time!

Reformation ‘Lorenzo Velvet Dress’ - $328.00
I woke up to so many questions this morning.
Which tour date am I going to?
How many am I going to?
How is Paramore opening for Taylor Swift in the year 2023?
But the biggest question on my mind is when was this photo of Tay and Phoebe taken and where.

Reformation ‘Cashmere Polo Sweater’ - $168.00
For me, one of the most fun things about album rollout is picking up repeat patterns and motifs in Taylor’s fashion. The items and silhouettes and little details that feel special to that era and to that time. For RED it might be a kitten heel. For 1989 it’s probably a crop top. You get the gist.
Sometimes those elements aren’t as seamless in transitioning to a ‘normal persons’ wardrobe in their everyday life. But as someone who has always loved a blazer, loved structure, loved the polish of an oxford button up, or the strong lapel of a coat—the recurring detail of collars in her Midnights fashion in so many different ways has been so fun to see continue to crop up.

Reformation ‘Leone Cashmere Sweater Mini Dress’ - $278.00
I’m a big lover of stripes, though I usually gravitate towards those in more neutral tones. For Midnights, however, and the gentle lean towards 70s-inspired fashun—this multi-color stripe is very fun and feels like a lovely nod to that. Not only because of the context of something slightly more laidback and casual, I think not opting for an opaque/matte red lip was the right call. The pink here is softer and sweeter.
Taylor first wore this dress in a recent Spotify video but it’s nice to get a much bigger picture of it in this new behind the scenes video for her song with Lana Del Rey.

Reformation ‘Cashmere Polo Sweater’ - $168.00
I’ve been obsessed with polo sweaters this fall so I’m delighted to see Taylor wearing one here. I just love the little bit of polish and structure a collar adds to a cozy sweater.
