Taylor Swift Dons A Sultry Black Mini Skirt For A Night Out With Friends

For the outing, Taylor wore the pandora embellished black miniskirt from SIMKHAI which she paired with a closely complementing black tank top with spaghetti straps. Although it is notoriously difficult to match shades of black, the singer does it perfectly—to the point that it truly looks like a little black dress rather than a two-piece outfit. The miniskirt showed off her super-toned legs.

The “All Too Well” singer accessorized with a pair of black patent leather Back To College Loafers from Chanel. Taylor has long been a longtime fan of a loafer and has worn many over the years. Leather, suede, heeled. She also sported a plum-colored Frayme Medium S Wave Shoulder Bag from Stella McCartney with a chain detail that perfectly ties with the chain on her skirt. And, to complete the look, Taylor opted for a pair of cat-eye sunglasses from Stella McCartney for that extra layer of cool.

Taylor has rocked many all-black ensembles over the years and it’s always been the chicest way to complement her red lip. And, she’s been seen in similar outfits in NYC—like the daring low-cut black shirt Taylor wore for her first outing since her breakup with her boyfriend of six years, Joe Alwyn.

Her friends looked equally chic. Gigi went for an all-denim look and Blake wore a pair of high-waisted jeans, a black top, and a patterned vest. The Haim sisters each donned some sort of leather accessory like knee-high boots and bomber jackets. The group was seen chatting while walking the streets of Manhattan together. Taylor has been leaning on her friends for support following her breakup with Joe.

A source close to the multiple-Grammy winner and the Catherine Called Birdy star told PEOPLE their breakup was because of “differences in their personalities.” Despite the breakup, the insider revealed that, “There is a lot of respect still between them,” even though fans suspect that Joe cheated on Taylor.

Fan Comments

Fans couldn’t get enough of Taylor and her squad’s fashionable night-out looks. “Why [is] this gives me 1989 vibes,” one person commented, while another fan wrote, “Quality time with her friends after a breakup,” and a third commenter quipped, “She really said ‘assemble the squad’ after that breakup,” and another fan commented about her friend group, “They’re all soo tall!”

“Lately, she’s been dressing for revenge,” another fan commented. Many joked that their outfits were all for different seasons, with some saying Taylor was dressing for summer while Blake and Gigi were still dressing for winter. “Taylor is just like me, [she] refuses to let the weather tell her what to wear. Out and about in mini skirts and no jackets,” a fan wrote.

Other fans were just obsessed with how many outings and ensembles Taylor has been rocking lately, “What have we done to deserve this many sightings and LEWKS in NYC lately from miss swift??” Another fan joked, “Someone on TikTok described Taylor as having [an] outdoor cat and indoor cat time periods and we’re currently in an outdoor cat period and I love that for us!”
