Katy Perry used to be the reigning queen of #Halloween13, but last year, a new pop star to emulate emerged: Taylor Swift. The country-turned-pop singer has been our most popular costume to date, so this year, we HAD to create a few new looks in honor of 1989. Here are two Taylor Swift costume ideas from “Shake It Off” — scroll to the bottom for looks from other music videos.
Ballerina Swift:
- Longsleeve cat crop top: You can buy a pale pink longsleeve shirt ($11, Amazon) and draw the cat’s face with a Sharpie, or buy this Cartoon Cat Sweatshirt ($17, Amazon) and cut it shorter.

- Black ankle-length leggings, $24; Amazon
