Taylor Swift has long established a very particular sense of style: her favorite brands (from Louis Vuitton and Gucci, to Charlotte Simone and Free People), her penchant for knee-high boots and mini-skirts, and never without her Artifex Fine engagement ring<\/a> from Travis Kelce.<\/p>\n

But stepping out in New York on Wednesday night (April 8), The Life of a Showgirl singer joined the masses of young women in the city channeling the codes of one Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy<\/a>. Swift opted for a black spaghetti strap tank top from (modern CBK-coded brand) The Row, paired with an ivory silk maxi skirt from Meshki, and a longline black blazer coat. For accessories: a Dior small 30 Montaigne Avenue top handle bag, an Audry Rose pave diamond lock necklace and a diamond trail lariat from the same jewelry designer. And, of course, that old mine brilliant cut diamond<\/a> set in a hand-engraved yellow gold band. Swift was joined by Ashley Avignone and Jerrod Carmichael.<\/p>\n

Her glam hit all of her signature hallmarks (save for the usual flash of bright red lipstick), with swooping bangs and a flick of eyeliner.<\/p>\n

Out and about in New York City, committed to her tried-and-true outfit formula of a mini-skirt and tall boots.<\/p>\n

The last time she was out and about was a tried-and-true Taylor Swift look. Appearing at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards<\/a>, Swift picked up seven new awards and gave her ring its red carpet debut, which she styled with a custom pistachio green Wiederhoeft corset and mini-skirt, Dena Kemp tourmaline earrings, rings by Selim Mouzannar and Ldezen, a Spinelli Kilcollin tennis bracelet, and Nak Armstrong ear cuff. Previous sporadic appearances<\/a> over the last few months (out for dinner at Bird Streets Club and Chez Margaux, for example) have seen her step out in Louboutin knee-high boots, The Row sweaters, Louis Vuitton outerwear, and a selection of Prada and Gucci bags.<\/p>\n

Instead, Swift\u2019s outfit called to mind the muted \u201990s minimalism of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy (Might she and Kelce be as hooked on Love Story<\/a> as the rest of us?) with its pared back details and black-and-white palette. This week\u2019s look also had a distinctly bridal air to it, as Swift and Kelce approach their rumored summer wedding date<\/a>. With spring in full flow, maybe some later nights out at Via Carota or Minetta Tavern could see her channel more of those easy, breezy CBK codes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Taylor Swift has long established a very particular sense of style: her favorite brands (from Louis Vuitton and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":385302,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[12904,146,85,46,2070],"class_list":["post-385301","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-carolyn-bessette-kennedy","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-taylor-swift"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=385301"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385301\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/385302"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=385301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=385301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=385301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
