What to wear to Taylor Swift?

Going to Taylor Swift in June with my daughters. What shall I wear? I’m in my early 50s, size 12. The only thing I’m certain of is that I really want to wear cowboy boots!! Outfit ideas please - the only thing I really can’t wear I think is frills!

Have you picked an Era/album? I might go for Red as it's easy. Jeans, t shirt with 'a lot going on at the moment' and cheap heart shaped sunglasses.

Google has lots of ideas for the different eras.

I'm going to Cardiff and this is the kind of thing I'm thinking about as well. I'm tempted to go all sparkly etc but think I'll stick with Red.

OP (and others) ignore the nasty posters on here. If they had any decency they'd apologise for being dicks but we know that won't happen!

Love this, I'm going 1989 and am thinking a sequin bomber and shorts, with a casual t shirt (I have a grey one that says "no it's Becky" on it, and heeled boots.

@BreakfastAtMimis @Raspberrymoon49 what is your problem?? Dressing up at TS concerts is a HUGE thing. OP is asking an entirely reasonable question. My dds have been planning their outfits for months.

I'm not going to this but have been to summer gigs at Wembley and it was really hot. The sun was low and beating right down on us for the first couple of hours so wear sun screen and don't wear anything too heavy.

Are you always like this?

hollyandivyknickers · 03/03/2024 20:20

I am with you OP. I am thinking silver ugly trainers for comfort and a sequin dress. Am 48

Find a fabulous sparkly top that you love, that you'd never usually have a chance to wear.

The pictures of outfits at the Sydney shows were amazing.

You can't believe that people are talking about what to wear in a talk forum in the Style and Beauty section?

Your mind must constantly be blown.

SellFridges · 03/03/2024 20:24

I’d love to wear a Folklore esque floaty dress, but I think I’ll probably be sticking to the 1989 sequin jacket and shorts.

Might try and coordinate with DD if she will let me…

Violetandgreen · 03/03/2024 20:24

Watching for inspiration too! Can't wait!

I've just had look at your previous posts. I've never seen such bile. All you do is attack people for posting!

GOOGLE IT!

How would anyone here know that?

Etc.

Mumsnet should ban you for putting people off posting.

I am going in August and didn’t know that dressing as an Era was a thing! TBF I haven’t thought about it for a while but would have turned my mind to it a few weeks before

Is there anywhere that shows good outfit ideas (like OP I am 50 plus) As it’s high summer I’ll need shorts and trainers so assume that will be denim short shorts and some kind of top. I’m taking DD and one of her friends and I’d like to make an effort

@NeverTalksToStrangers2 what's your Lover outfit?

I spotted a kinda cropped denim jacket with a fringed heart cut out the back last summer and just loved it. I'm far too old to wear it, but feck it. I have a casual peach/pink ribbed dress that I'll probably wear with it and then I want some colourful trainers. It's kinda an homage to 2 different lover outfits (I hate the neon one though).

USaYwHatNow · 03/03/2024 20:29

I'd love to have got tickets for my sister, hope you have an amazing time ♥️ from what I've heard, people are choosing an 'era' and dressing to a particular theme. Go crazy OP, I think you'll fit in well as everyone seems to be going all out!!

Fluffycloudsfloatinginthesky · 03/03/2024 20:32

I'm fat and 50 so I think I'm going as red - denim jeans / skirt plus a a lot / not a lot going on t shirt.

Red heart sunglasses and my daughter's burgandy converse as we are the same size. Maybe a red feather boa.

Divebar2021 · 03/03/2024 20:34

oK this is good information. I’m taking DD12 and after wearing black to Lizzo don’t want to make that mistake again. ( drab). I’m not really a fan but I want to get into spirit. My silver boots are not that comfortable so may need to rethink that… I do have metallic high top trainers so maybe I’ll start with that.

Divebar2021 · 03/03/2024 20:35

Im also over 50!

Whatever you want, no one will be looking at you.

I mean this in the nicest possible way, but absolutely no one will care what you are wearing.

The OP cares. Shouldn’t she care?

This is quite folklore but the split makes it a bit more doable.

Broderie Anglaise dress and cardigan for Folklore and a nod to her song Cardigan. Maybe some decorative hair slides and some customised Converse type shoes.

I’ve just thought something you can shake it off, shake it off off! 🤣
