Welcome to The Blueprint, where we take apart the celebrity looks we want to wear right now and recreate them, piece by piece.
Whenever Taylor Swift steps into Arrowhead Stadium, I immediately pay attention.
Such was the case on Sunday, November 10, when the 34-year-old singer arrived at the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Denver Broncos game in what I can only describe as WAG perfection. Continuing her recent parade of plaid outfits, Swift wore a red and black Versace blazer and skirt that cost a total of $5,045 during the outing. She styled the look with black knee-high boots and a black Victoria’s Secret corset top — a surprisingly affordable find that’s currently on sale for $35.
While many elements of Swift’s outfit are ideal for fall-to-winter dressing, I couldn’t stop thinking about her formal jacket worn over a classic black top. Not only do they look great together, but their style potential as individual pieces is almost endless. Want to copy her outfit for less? I’ve rounded up similar tank tops, jackets, and knee-high boots for you to shop, starting at just $20.

It’s not every day that Swift wears something I can afford, so I picked up her Victoria’s Secret top before it sold out. It’s currently in stock in all 10 colors, including the pink, emerald green and black shade she wore to the game, and each corset comes with a matching thong. Copy the singer by layering it under a jacket or sweater, or wear it as a stand-alone top with jeans and skirts, as I plan to do.

While Swift can’t stop wearing plaid this season, her latest iteration had an extra festive, winter-ready twist. Copy her look for upcoming holiday gatherings by adding this bird’s-tooth blazer to your wardrobe while it’s on sale. Its sophisticated lapels and classy gold buttons are sure to add a polished touch to any outfit, while its functional pockets mean you can keep your essentials close at hand.
Additionally, one customer noted that it looks a lot “more expensive” than it is. “Makes you feel fancy without having to spend a lot of money,” they wrote.

I’ve been reaching for knee-high boots lately, and it seems I’m not the only one: Swift has also been wearing multiple variations of the shoe style in recent weeks. These Banana Republic factory outlet boots have a similar height and pointy-toe silhouette to the singer’s, but their small heel makes them much more wearable for everyday life. Check out her look by choosing a pair in black, or choose between light wine and chocolate suede.
