Here are some photos of Taylor Swift, out and about in NYC last night. She was with her friend Ashley Avignone, and they went to dinner at Via Carota in the West Village. I just looked at the menu… it’s great! Great variety for an Italian restaurant, lots of pastas, salads and meats. I wish we knew what Taylor ordered! That’s one thing I’ll give Taylor credit for: she tries different restaurants and she’s not stuck in the habit of just going to her two favorite places constantly.
As for fashion, this is one of Taylor’s best “street style” looks in a while. She wore a $398 Retrofête minidress in bridal white, paired with a cute Dior bag and black Gucci heels. Taylor’s street style is so hit-or-miss, but she does love to shop and she loves a miniskirt and minidress. If I had her legs, I would be pantless forever too.
Anyway, we still don’t know the where and when of Taylor and Travis Kelce’s wedding. The energy around them hasn’t seemed like they’re wedding-prepping either, or maybe they’ve just outsourced all of the labor to various wedding planners (which, again, is what I would do if I had Taylor’s money). Taylor just got back to New York as well – last week, she and Travis were in London, then they went to Greece for George Karlagtis’ wedding. That’s one of Travis’s Chiefs teammates.
While Trav and Tay were in London, they attended Poppy Delevingne’s 40th birthday party, which was also attended by Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. According to Rob Shuter, Taylor avoided the princesses like the plague and Tay “was having absolutely no part” of being introduced to them. Rude!

Has she done something to her face?! Her jaw looks odd, or her lips maybe? I don’t follow Taylor closely enough to put my finger on it, but I almost didn’t recognize her. That said, her legs are fabulous, and I, too, would wear nothing but miniskirts and shorts, if I had her legs.
I see what you mean, I wonder if its just the angle of the photos? In the third picture – where she’s in the doorway of the restaurant – she looks more like herself but in the other pictures something looks different but like you said, I cant put my finger on it.
Anyway its a miracle, I like this outfit! her street style is so bad that I’m convinced its on purpose lol but this one is good.
I was thinking she’s starting to look a bit older. Isn’t it funny how that’s the reaction to doing anything to your face now?
She looks good. She’s got that all American look. I’m very curious to see what choices she makes as she starts aging.
I will say that super high heels on someone that tall with normal clothes come across as a bit insecure. Your legs are great! They don’t need to teeter atop painfully high stilettos!
I’m almost as tall as her and love high heels. It isn’t insecurity, at least not for the tall person, it’s a fashion choice and preference. Seems odd to assign an insecurity to liking heels. Are tall people not allowed to?
I think the opposite. I am significantly shorter than Taylor but always felt too tall to wear high heels. I wouldn’t have worn them regularly – I prefer comfort – but occasionally would have been nice. I like it when I see tall young women who don’t feel they have to minimise their tallness by always wearing flats.
“Subtle” cheek filler. It’s pulling the sides of her face tighter. It’s not the worst filler I’ve seen, but still noticeable. And possibly some Botox around the outside of her eyes. At least it doesn’t look like anything permanent.
If I had long legs, I too would show them off. Signed, a short-leg girl.
She looks fantastic. She has beautiful legs. I love the bag, the shoes. Great look. She looks fit and healthy. She is definitely working out. Her legs have so much definition. Thank goodness, she isn’t starving herself for the wedding. Some brides get scary thin before a wedding. Taylor looks perfect and relaxed in the last two months leading up to her wedding.
I agree … she looks healthy and fit.
Not a fan of Taylor’s music so bland but I do admire her hard-work and more importantly in an industry that chews and spits out women, her business acumen. Also think she looks fantastic here and her face she looks fresh, pretty and more like herself. Whatever she was doing a few months ago she’s stopped tweaking with her face and looks lovely.
Wearing white to go for Italian food is brave.
It truly is.
😂 hopefully she ordered carbonara
Haha I was thinking the same thing – go for the Chicken Milanese.
It’s been years and still I swear when her stuff is on the radio I have to ask someone “is that Taylor Swift?” Because her sound is so bland.
Literally. Her voice and music are so non-descript.
She looks like a figure skater.
At least half of what she wears looks like a figure skater. I can’t figure out why she doesn’t hire a better stylist!
She looks really gorgeous here! If I had those legs I’d show them off as well.
Her street style is often terrible but she has had several really good looks over the past few weeks which could means either she’s gotten a new stylist or she is listening to advice. Whenever her wedding is, I hope she has a great time.
I won’t hate on her for avoiding the princesses. The smallest thing Taylor does is met with scrutiny so given Beatrice and Eugenie’s parents, I’d want to avoid any links to any of that if possible.
Ahhh! I have this same dress! And you better believe that I’m going to harass my family and friends with “who wore it better?” (Taylor did. Obviously. I’m like a foot shorter and not at all leggy. But I personally think that boobs like mine do improve the look, lol).
I’m sure that you look absolutely lovely in that dress!
It’s a fab dress, excellent choice!
TSwift refused to be introduced to Pedo Andy’s daughters. I don’t blame her. That guy’s rep is nuclear, thoroughly contaminating everyone in his circle. I know the daughters didn’t do anything to deserve being tainted by his crimes but I understand A+ listers refusing to go anywhere near them.
dress just okay?? looks like a cheerleader.
That woman is NOT cute.
My god I’m so tired of those bangs. I like bangs in general, but the cut and shape of these are so unflattering.
This is a favorite restaurant of hers but do you think she’s already in her wedding era?
