As Taylor Swift sang, Florida is one hell of a drug. Especially in NHL season.
Swift and boyfriend Travis Kelce made a surprise appearance last night (June 12) to watch Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers. And of course it’s no Taylor-Travis date night to the games without two very considered looks.
The couple arrived at the Amerant Arena in Sunrise, Florida hand-in-hand and took their seats in a VIP box for the tense game of ice hockey. It was a rare public date night for Swift and Kelce—who were only recently spotted together at a wedding of Kelce’s cousin—though both are in their offseasons: As Swift wrapped her mammoth Eras tour back in December and Kelce the Super Bowl in February.
And for the occasion, the pop star and NFL tight end opted for matching sweatsuits and their own takes on team colors. Swift wore a beige and crystal-studded track jacket and pull-on shorts by Area—a go-to Swift brand for matching sets and night out looks—as well as her trusty beige Prada heeled ankle boots and a large black monogrammed Chanel bucket bag. Jewelry was to be expected: DeBeers diamond earrings, her Tiffany ‘T’ ring, and Wove x Michelle Wi custom ‘TNT’ bracelet that Kelce gave Swift as a present. She wore her hair pulled back in a ponytail, and a signature (Panthers-friendly) red lip. Kelce meanwhile wore his own bright red long sleeve and shirts sweatsuit, with a white and red cap.
Their appearance comes after frenzied media reports that the couple had gotten married—with wooly evidence, or even a peep out of a woman very capable of crafting her own romantic narrative.
And since the news broke that Swift has successfully bought back her masters, she’s been out socializing with her set. Selena Gomez joined Swift for a girl’s night out at Monkey Bar in New York, nailing Upper East Side style: Swift in a black Gucci two-piece set and Gomez in a sleek beige Ulla Johnson suit. Swift’s other GNO was with Dakota Johnson, at her usual haunt, Via Carota, donning the dress-of-the-moment, a floral fit-and-flare number from Dôen.
And NFL season is fast approaching, so Swift is likely considering her WAG style with longtime stylist Joseph Cassell Falconer, who has styled her stage looks and game day fits. If her evening at the hockey is anything to go by, more Area and Chanel can be expected. Last season, Swift turned out to support her Kansas City Chiefs boyfriend with a maximal arsenal of accessories, mixing bold sporty styles with more fashion-forward details. Think: A Chanel bucket hat and CC logo earrings, as well as a custom “87” necklace in honor of Travis Kelce’s jersey number. Standout looks included a Penny Lane coat (in Chiefs red, of course), a sparkling Dion Lee corset and hotpants under a leather Chiefs bomber, a Vivienne Westwood dress with platform boots, and a Versace double denim moment.
Swift and Kelce looked to have a great night despite the Edmonton Oilers beating out the Florida Panthers. As the game went to sudden death, the Midnights singer was spotted telling Kelce: “My heart was like…” and patting her hand rapidly to her chest. Following this rare date night, Kelce will likely be back to training before the NFL season kicks off again in September.
Now she’s got her masters back, summer—and summery dressing—is all for Taylor Swift to play for.
