Taylor & Travis Are Engaged! Chiefs Kingdom + Swifties Unite
Hello lovely,
I FEEL SO HIGH SCHOOL!! OMG!! I’ve written many blog entries so far, but none have made my heart race quite like this one. If you’ve spent any time with me, you probably know two things about me: I’ve been a Kansas City Chiefs fan since 1999, and I became a Swiftie back in 2006 when Taylor dropped her very first album. Fast-forward to 2023 and my two worlds officially collided— but today is THE DAY Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged! To me, that’s basically a national holiday. Just wait until the wedding; I’ll be celebrating like it’s both the Super Bowl and the Grammys rolled into one.
When Taylor and Travis announced their engagement on August 26 with a dreamy garden proposal and the cheekiest caption—“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married”—it felt like the love story we’ve all been rooting for. After two years together, it’s such a full-circle moment. And, of course, Taylor looked every inch the leading lady we know her to be.
Her engagement outfit has already gone viral for a reason. She wore a soft blue-and-white striped silk-blend Polo Ralph Lauren dress (around $398), paired with classic tan heels, a Cartier watch, and delicate heart-shaped earrings. And don’t even get me started on the ring—a vintage Old Mine Brilliant-Cut diamond that’s estimated to be 7–10 carats of absolute magic. Taylor’s bridal fashion era has officially begun, and I am here for it.
Because fashion is one of my favorite things to share with you, I had to put together an “inspired by Taylor” engagement look. This engagement feels extra special to me because Taylor’s music has been the soundtrack to my life, and the Chiefs have been my team since I was a kid. I’ve cheered for her on the Red Tour and sang my heart out twice on the Eras Tour—once in Nashville and once in London—and now I’ll be cheering just as loudly for her love story. To see my favorite tight end propose to my favorite songwriter? It’s a fangirl dream come true.
So here’s to Taylor and Travis and all of us celebrating right along with them. Tell me—what do you think of the engagement? Which Taylor era do you hope she nods to at the wedding? Folklore lace, Lover pink, Reputation drama? Whatever it is, I’ll be watching (and probably crying happy tears).
