Taylor Swift turned heads during her night out in NYC last month, showing off a Britney Spears-inspired look as she stepped out in a checkered miniskirt. The "Blank Space" singer, who has been making headlines non-stop of late for her new album and engagement to fiancé Travis Kelce, stunned in a leggy look in early October, showing off her killer legs as she enjoyed a night in the Big Apple. Taylor's photos quickly went viral, sparking a fan response that proved somewhat mixed. While many praised Taylor for her style, some wondered if she's had some work done, with others slamming her outfit as being too young for "35."

Adding height to her frame thanks to a high-heeled finish, Taylor accessorized her figure-flaunting ensemble with a logo Dior purse in black leather, wearing her hair down and styled into bangs. The pop sensation also rocked plenty of flattering makeup, making sure to add her signature red lipstick. Photos shared by Just Jared on Instagram showed Taylor Swift smiling as she was spotted near a vehicle and on a sidewalk.
Comments came in fast. "Taylor looks so different," one fan remarked. "We need to sue the plastic surgeon" was a comment racking up over 170 likes. Over 30 likes, meanwhile, were left to a shaming remark reading: "The Catholic school girl skirt at 35. The jokes write themselves."

Taylor Swift turned heads at the 2024 VMAs, channeling wintry accents in this custom-made, plaid look. Going slit for a leg flash while modeling a checkered, tight bodice feeding into a matching skirt, The Life of a Showgirl star wowed in black shorts, affording a deconstructed finish as she stormed the red carpet.
"Gorgeous," one fan said, but another found Taylor's look "hideous." A third, meanwhile, wrote: "Why doesn’t she do something with her hair. She’s trying to look like a high school girl but she’s not." Taylor remains a fashion icon, although unlike fellow pop stars Miley Cyrus and Jennifer Lopez, she tends to opt out of fronting designer labels.
