The NFL found its MVP for the season — Taylor Swift. From football fans to Swifties, everyone is talking about Swift and her romance with Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce.

The “...Ready For It?” singer garnered attention for showing up to a few of his games, and doing it in style. Would you expect anything less from the fashion icon known for “that red lip classic thing” that everyone likes? Of course, not. Swift even made an appearance at Super Bowl LVIII on Feb. 11, where Kelce’s Chiefs went up against (and beat) the San Francisco 49ers.

While seated in a VIP suite at Allegiant Stadium with her friends Blake Lively and Ice Spice, Swift stunned in yet another color-coordinated game day ‘fit. Now looking back on her first NFL season, fans can take inspo from Taylor Swift’s outfits for what they wear to watch a football game at home or in the stands. Cheering on Kelce at each game, Swift has slayed the blokette style of sporty elements with bejeweled girly details and nods to her boyfriend.

The chairman of The Tortured Poets Department’s football style is chic, but also totally attainable. Sure, the brands Swift shops at match her luxe lifestyle, but you most likely have a white tank top and pair of denim shorts in your closet right now, which means you’re one step closer to having a dupe ‘fit to wear.

All you need to complete your Swift-inspired look is to throw on her signature red lipstick, add in some football apparel, and wear your favorite jewelry — including those friendship bracelets you made for the tour. Of course, you could also build an OOTD from scratch. To help you find an outfit to wear to your next football game, here are some budget-friendly ideas inspired by actual items Taylor Swift has worn at the Chiefs’ games.

A Dupe For Taylor Swift’s Kansas City Chiefs Outfit

For both new and diehard fans of Kansas City, you’ll want to replicate Swift’s outfit from the Chiefs versus the Chicago Bears game. Seated next to Kelce’s mom, Donna Kelce, Swift wore team colors red, white, and gold throughout her look. The main character of her outfit was the vintage Chiefs windbreaker from New Era Cap, which you can find dupes of on the NFL’s official merch site or Fanatics. While they may not be an exact match with the color blocking, you’ll be fine as long as you stick to red or white.

Underneath the jacket, Swift kept it delicate with a cropped white tank featuring buttons down the middle and distressed denim shorts. While low-rise may be in right now, Swift is a fan of the high-waist look and it suits her long legs all too well. To bring in some golden elements, Swift accessorized her ‘fit with crescent earrings, a gold choker, and a tan corduroy cap. She also kept it sporty with some white and red New Balance sneakers.

It’s so simple to recreate this look with items in your budget. You could even color-coordinate with your team by finding a different windbreaker, opting for silver jewelry, or going with a tank in a more appropriate shade.

Swift has been alternating between blue and black ‘fits recently, which fans believe are easter eggs to both 1989 (Taylor’s Version) and reputation (Taylor’s Version). For the Oct. 1 Kansas City Chiefs game, Swift went full reputation mode in a black long-sleeved top tucked into light-wash denim shorts with crystal details. She paired the simple yet chic ‘fit with a leather jacket and Christian Louboutin boots. While heeled boots may not be as comfortable as New Balance sneakers for most people, Swift has become accustomed to dancing around in Louboutin shoes during her entire Eras Tour set.

To complete the look, Swift wore her bright red lipstick with a “cat eye sharp enough to kill a man” (or intimidate the rival team). She also sported layered gold necklaces with tiny gold hoops. The outfit is a perfect choice for anyone looking to stun without being too over-the-top.

Despite the game being the day after her Eras Tour movie premiere, Swift showed up at the Oct. 12 Kansas City Chiefs game against the Denver Broncos. Seated next to Kelce’s mom, Swift wore another reputation-esque black ‘fit, but with team colors mixed in. It was supportive, sexy, and channeled popular cheer captain rooting on her football star boyfriend.

For this look, Swift wore another Chiefs windbreaker, but this time, it was from Erin Andrews’ WEAR collection. Just like at the first game, Swift styled her jacket off the shoulder, which gave major flirty vibes. This also allowed her black corset top to shine through. And instead of shorts, the “Blank Space” singer went with a black mini skirt that matched her military boots. With her hair in a ponytail, you could really see the golden accents that included her go-to chain necklace and hoop earrings as well.

When Kelce tried to shoot his shot with Swift at her Eras Tour show in Kansas City back in July, he brought a friendship bracelet with him that was made just for the 1989 singer. Instead of some song lyrics written out in beads, though, the tight end wrote his phone number. It was a slick move, but unfortunately, he wasn’t able to hand it off to her after the concert. He did mention it on his podcast, New Heights, which must have gotten back to the singer — especially now that they’re hanging out.

Not only have they been spotted going to Saturday Night Live after parties together, but Swift is now sporting a friendship bracelet with Kelce’s number on it — but not his phone number. At the Chiefs game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Oct. 22, Swift had a golden friendship bracelet on her left wrist that spelled out Kelce’s jersey number, 87. She paired the “You’re on Your Own, Kid” accessory with a gold Cartier choker to coordinate in team colors with her Kansas City Chiefs sweatshirt, black pleated mini skirt, black loafers, and red lipstick.

Now that Swift is done touring for the year, she has more time to support her man and even travel to some of his away games. On Dec. 3, Swift showed up with fellow WAG and new bestie, Brittany Mahomes, to the Chiefs’ game at the Green Bay Packers’ Lambeau Field in Wisconsin. There was snow at the Chiefs game, so Swift made she she was ready for the weather in a red teddy coat from Stella McCartney.

Some fans believe Swift even borrowed the Chiefs-colored jacket from Mahomes to wear over her very reputation-inspired black ‘fit of a sheer turtleneck, mini skirt, and thigh high boots. Whether it was Mahomes’ coat or not, Swift was the perfect cheerleader for Kelce in a winter weather football outfit.

Up until when the Kansas City Chiefs went against the Buffalo Bills in December, you could say Swift was the lucky one, because every game she attended IRL, Kelce would win. However, that luck changed when the Chiefs lost 17 to 20 on Dec. 10. Swift still arrived in style at Arrowhead Stadium, wearing another vintage Chiefs sweatshirt with a black mini skirt and a thigh high boot. This look is quickly becoming her game day go-to.

Instead of a bright red lip, she went with a darker shade that is very reminiscent of the moodier Reputation era — which she’s rumored to be announcing the re-recorded version of next. Swift also wore some golden jewelry (another staple), which included a red stone ring.

While her boyfriend didn’t win the game, that didn’t stop the power couple from going out afterwards. Swift and Kelce were seen leaving the stadium hand-in-hand, and this time around, she ditched her Chiefs sweatshirt and revealed she was wearing a bejeweled black bodysuit underneath. This transitional outfits gives Swifties the perfect idea for a football outfit that goes from day to night.

A Taylor Swift Football ‘Fit For When You’re Keeping It Cozy

To finish off a busy birthday week, Swift kept it cozy at the Kansas City Chiefs game against the New England Patriots. Joined by her dad in the VIP suite, the “Cruel Summer” singer wore a comfy, gray Chiefs sweatshirt with a wool, plaid wrap mini skirt. To accessorize the ‘fit — and show support for her beau — Swift paired the look with a customized red and white knit beanie with Kelce’s number (87) on the front.

The hat was actually a gift from a fan who works for the company, Westside Storey, where Swift bought most of her vintage Chiefs sweatshirts that she’s worn this season. Kat (@kuttheknit) shared on TikTok that she wasn’t 100% sure the package was going to Swift’s team, but just in case, she knitted the Chiefs-colored beanie as a free gift to add on top. She crocheted the entire thing in one night (with the help of her cat), so if you’ve got some DIY skills, you could even make your own Swift-inspired beanie to wear with your team’s colors.

While it may not be the most runway-ready of her game day looks, the entire outfit was comfy, cozy, and cute all wrapped into one.

A Taylor Outfit Dupe That Fully Embraces The Coquette Aesthetic

During the Christmas day game, where the Kansas City Chiefs went up against the Las Vegas Raiders, Swift showed up in style with her entire family. While her brother, Austin Swift, chose to really go with the holiday theme by wearing a Santa Claus costume — and even handed Kelce’s Christmas gift to him from his Santa sack — Taylor kept her festive details more low-key. Channeling the viral coquette aesthetic of accessorizing with a bow — something that TikTok is loving — she wore her half up, half down hairstyle with a black bow.

For her ‘fit, Taylor wore yet another plaid mini skirt with her fave black tights from Sheertex, heeled Prada loafers, a seasonal Ralph Lauren red sweater, and a Grizzly Bomber from Guest In Residence — which is quickly becoming one of her go-to jackets. Along with her black bow, Taylor also wore some bejeweled bobby pins in her hair that she later covered up with a Kansas City Chiefs Santa hat with Kelce’s number embroidered on the front.

Before celebrating New Year’s Eve together — and kissing at midnight — Swift cheered on Kelce at his game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Not only did Swift wear pants for the first time at a Chiefs game, but she was also paired her Reputation-esque ‘fit of black jeans, top, boots, and red lipstick with a familiar varsity jacket. Fans noticed the custom Kansas City Chiefs varsity jacket designed by Jeff Hamilton was similar to the one Kelce wore the week before at the Christmas day game.

Many Swifties thought that Swift borrowed her boyfriend’s jacket, but from the custom “Tay-Tay” embroidered over the right side pocket, the jacket appears to be made one-of-a-kind for the “New Year’s Day” singer — which is too cute for words. Kelce even gave the ‘fit his stamp of approval by commenting fire and raised hand emojis on an IG video of the singer arriving at Arrowhead Stadium.

An Outfit Dupe For Those Sub-Zero Games

The Kansas City Chiefs kicked off the NFL playoffs with a wild card win against the Miami Dolphins on Jan. 13. The game, which took place in sub-zero temperatures, was a cold one, but Swift still arrived in style — repping her man and wearing Reputation colors. For this wintry game, Swift had on all-black — a pair of leathery jeans, a belt, top, and Louboutin combat boots — with a white beanie and custom Kansas City Chiefs puffer jacket with Kelce’s number all over.

Kristin Juszczyk, who designed the coat for Swift, got a lot of love on her piece thanks to her husband, San Francisco 49ers player Kyle Juszczyk. Kyle was all over social media, making sure Kristin got the recognition she deserved for her amazing puffer jackets that she not only made for Swift, but Brittany Mahomes as well.

When the Chiefs took on the Buffalo Bills on Jan. 21, the game at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, NY was a cold one. Instead of wearing her puffy Kansas City jacket one more time, Swift went with a more subtle option. The standout piece of her ‘fit was a varsity jacket from GANT in Kansas City Chiefs’ colors, red and white.

Underneath her jacket, Swift opted for another all-black ensemble — black shirt, jeans, and belt — which she accessorized with a red beanie and lip.

Swift kept it low-key with her look at the AFC Championship game on Jan. 28, where the Kansas City Chiefs took on the Baltimore Ravens. She didn’t even straighten her hair, so her iconic locks were on full display, giving major Reputation vibes. For this cozy look, the “Look What You Made Me Do” singer wore a chunky red sweater (from bestie Gigi Hadid’s Guest in Residence cashmere brand) that she paired with black tights, a mini skirt, and boots.

While she didn’t wear any major Kansas City Chiefs merch like she has in the past, Swift had nods to her football boyfriend in her jewelry. Along with her gold and garnet Heirloom Ring from Mejuri, she wore another ring with Kelce’s jersey on it, a Kansas City Chiefs dog tag necklace, and a custom tennis bracelet with “TNT” on it — presumably for Taylor and Travis.

A Bejeweled ‘Fit Worthy Of Winning The Super Bowl

Swift made it safely from her Eras Tour show in Tokyo to Las Vegas to see Kelce compete at the Super Bowl. And for her final ‘fit of the season, the “Love Story” singer channeled some of her previous looks while also shouting out her boyfriend in her accessories.

Once again, Swift went with a $60,000 (!) all-black look — which is very fitting for the current Tortured Poets Department black and white era. Walking into the 2024 Super Bowl, she wore a black Dion Lee corset, black AREA jeans with a bejeweled slit, and black boots with a bedazzled “87” on the side. The monochromatic corset and jeans look is very similar to what she wore at the Oct. 12 Chiefs game against the Denver Broncos.

For that ‘fit, Swift wore an Erin Andrews’ WEAR windbreaker; similarly, at the Super Bowl, she sported an Erin Andrews’ WEAR jacket. This time, it was a red Chiefs bomber jacket that Swift carried over her shoulder as she entered the stadium. Swift didn’t wear her jacket most of the game, but brought in pops of color with jewelry — and many pieces also were nods to Kelce.

One standout accessory was Swift’s $4,250 “87” pendant from Stephanie Gottlieb, which she layered with a choker and ruby necklace. The layering of necklaces is something Swift also did in her 2024 Grammys look. The “Bad Blood” singer also wore ruby rings, a heart-shaped earring, and bracelets to add in the Chiefs’ team colors of red and gold.

On the other ear, Swift wore a $650 “T” Jacquie Aiche earring, which can stand for Taylor and Travis. (Or, perhaps “T as in Troy” from High School Musical?) To complete the look, Swift carried a $4,495 football-shaped clutch from Judith Leiber that was customized with a bejeweled “87” on it.
