The most recognizable thing about Taylor Swift’s style isn’t her longtime love of Reformation dresses or her penchant for redesigning her favorite dress. Eras tour outfits in different colors. It’s Taylor Swift switching boots when the heels of her statement pair are just too high to wear all night.

Let’s rewind: Swift arrived at the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the New Orleans Saints on Oct. 7 wearing a pair of knee-high Vivienne Westwood boots under a plaid, dress-like matching set from the label’s Fall 2024 collection. Her choice of footwear for the match – sleek, leather and with sky-high heels – mirrored the thigh-high boots she wore during the season opener. (And the pair she wore the next week under a vintage mini T-shirt dress.)

Then, just as the internet was distracted by her glittery freckles and matching Chiefs manicure, Swift made a slight shoe change.
