What does a showgirl wear for a night out in New York City?
In the case of Taylor Swift, the answer is an outfit that’s simple, chic, and quite expensive.
The music icon had dinner at The Eighty Six in the West Village on Tuesday night amid a press tour for her latest album, “The Life of a Showgirl.”
In paparazzi photos, she’s seen wearing a fall-ready ensemble that includes a miniskirt and high-neck top, luxury jewels, and her signature red lip.
Miu Miu designed her statement plaid miniskirt, which retails for $2,300, and Dior is the brand behind her $3,450 leather purse.
Her orange-toned boots, on the other hand, are a $1,550 pair from London-based designer Jennifer Chamandi.
The three pieces made for a classic, understated outfit, but Swift’s accessories took it to another level.
In addition to her potentially $1 million engagement ring, Swift wore a $9,400 Cartier bracelet, a second gold bracelet decorated with diamonds, and an assortment of rings, including a $298 signet piece from Catbird.
On her other wrist, she wore a Santos Demoiselle watch from Cartier. As one watch expert previously told Business Insider, the piece originally retailed for $27,300 and now resells for upward of $18,000.
The most impressive jewelry Swift wore came in the form of a statement necklace made in 1883.
The Victorian-era piece from John Grinsell & Sons has a 9-carat, yellow-gold chain and a citrine charm hanging from its center. It previously retailed for about $9,465.
Reviews of Swift’s 12th studio album have been mixed, something Swift herself says she doesn’t mind.
But if there’s one thing that’s not up for debate, it’s Swift’s style. No matter the era, she’ll always be the bejeweled girl next door.
