Taylor Swift has been making appearances all over New York City before she goes back on her record-breaking Eras Tour (which you can find last-minute tickets to here). We can’t help but focus on the trendy styles she’s been showing off, whether it’s a girls’ night out with her friends — including Selena Gomez, Blake Lively, Gigi Hadid and more — or hanging out in the stands with the NFL wives cheering on the Kansas City Chiefs.

Our personal favorite was back in October when she and love interest Travis Kelce were spotted together yet again, and this time it wasn’t at a Chiefs football game.

While some might suggest you could see the “Sparks Fly” as the singer and NFL star were spotted holding hands in New York City on Oct. 14, we were too focused on the outfit she debuted — which included an elegant Aupen shoulder bag.

As summer slips “away into a moment in time,” the “Anti-Hero” singer has been stepping out in arguably some of her best Swift outfits for fall. Her date night ‘fit included a houndstooth patterned coat and a Nirvana mini purse she was also spotted wearing to Jack Antonoff’s wedding rehearsal, according to a Taylor Swift style blog. The exact style is still in stock — and it’s less than $500.

Now that the Grammy-winning singer has hard launched her new relationship with the tight-end football player, there have been rumors swirling that Kelce may be joining Swift in South America for her Buenos Aires shows. Even the athlete’s brother, Jason Kelce, attempted to get the Super Bowl winner to reveal if he’s joining the singer on her tour. Whether or not he does attend the shows, it’s clear this won’t be the last we see the two stepping out in fashionable date night looks.
