Scream alarm: Taylor Swift recently surprised the world with her new album "Folklore" and is already breaking all records. However, we only have eyes for her changed look – because it has nothing to do with Hollywood glamor anymore. We reveal why we love the type change precisely because of this.
After vintage blouses in Victorian style were proclaimed as THE fashion trend this fall, pop icon Taylor Swift has now provided us with the right hairstyle for the look. Instead of the usual voluminous mane and perfect make-up, Everybodys Darling Taylor relies on a nostalgic-romantic undone look. Best of all: Taylor's new hairstyle can be styled in no time.
From Hollywood vamp to nature girl
Instead of styling ready for the stage, Taylor presents herself in the music video for her new song "Cardigan" with carelessly braided hair, curly bangs and super subtle make-up. All in all, their appearance is more reminiscent of a heroine of days gone by than of America's most successful pop artist – which is anything but negative!
At 30, Taylor looks younger and fresher than ever. The loose pony accentuates Swift's girlish face and makes her features appear even softer. We also don't miss the striking eyeliner and the red kissable mouth – so far Taylor's beauty trademark – in the slightest. The unobtrusive make-up is reminiscent of the early days of Taylor's career, when she was just the "good girl" from Tennessee.
This is how the look works
And the best: Taylor's nostalgic romantic look is not only totally trendy, it is also super easy to style. Even the singer did without helping hands during the video shoot, instead doing her hair and make-up herself.
If you are blessed with naturally wavy hair like Taylor, you can get started without much preparation. Everyone else helps a little and provides more grip with salt water spray or volume powder. Then pull a messy middle parting and braid two side braids. Here, too, accurate work is not necessary. Then twist the two braided sections of hair into snails and pin. If you want to take the undone look to the extreme, you can also pull out individual strands.
And because Taylor can't get enough of the girlish retro look, she combines her cute braided hairstyle with white lace dresses, over which she throws coarse cardigans and oversized coats – this creates a cool break and gives Taylor's styling a grown-up touch. Together with coarse boots, your outfit looks casual and seeeehhhhr cozy – perfect for cool autumn days! All in all, Taylor's motto is: Keep it easy. This winter we are focusing on naturalness and prefer to make our outfits look a little more careless than too perfectly styled.
