Taylor Swift’s “22” Video: Fashion Inspirations
ast Wednesday, country-pop singer Taylor Swift released her latest video for her hit song from the “Red” album called “22”. The video was shot in Malibu only a month before being released on “Good Morning America”. The music video was shot with Swift’s real-life gal pals and depicted a typical girls’ weekend complete with baking, dancing, trampoline jumping, and a disco party featuring feline accessories. The 23-year-old singer is typically known for drama-filled songs about love and breakups, but this was a great exception. The colors were fun and the entire video was seemingly shot through an Instagram filter, complete with eccentric outfits. Check out how you can learn how to “dress up like hipsters,” just like Taylor Swift!
1. Hipster Casual
In a large portion of the video, Swift is featured in a very hipster-inspired outfit that looks like it could have come straight out of Brooklyn. The blonde star wears black shorts and a graphic tee, with the phrase “Not A Lot Going On At The Moment” in large bold lettering. She pairs the outfit with accessories like heart-shaped sunglasses, red lipstick, and a black wide-brimmed hat.
You can get a look similar to Swift’s with clothing options from Urban Outfitters and Forever 21. Find a funky phrase on a t-shirt and pair it with unique accessories. Don’t be afraid to go all-out! Take Swift’s advice from her lyrics and “forget about the deadlines” and dance around with your girlfriends!
2. Retro-Chic
In the trampoline scene, Swift and her friends seem to be having such a blast and their outfits are just as fun! The star is wearing a floral front-tie shirt, an orange scarf tied as a headband and a cute pair of retro high-waist denim shorts. She accessorizes the outfit with a pair of ray-ban sunglasses.
This is the perfect outfit for a summer day with friends! You can achieve a very similar style yourself. American Apparel has great options for high-waist shorts. Remember, the more color, the better!
3. Comfy Tomboy
Taylor Swift pulls off a cute tomboy look in the beach scene. She’s wearing a gray beanie and a tan sweater that looks super comfortable. Swift pulls it all together with a pair of dark skinny jeans and she looks effortlessly cool.
Rock a similar look with a comfy hat and sweater for a cooler evening on the beach. It’s a casual outfit that could be worn any day!
4. Formal Feline
Finally, at the end of the video, Taylor Swift and her friends are getting ready for a night out. They seem to be dressing to go to a disco-inspired party. Her outfit consists of a long-sleeve, sparkly, black, off-the-shoulder sweater and a miniskirt with sparkles. The outfit is complete with a pair of cute cat ears!
Don’t be afraid to be a little daring! Sport some feline accessories for a night out and stand out in the crowd. After all, you’re celebrating being “22” (or just young in general!)
