Local outfit ideas for Taylor Swift’s “The Eras” tour

We know “All Too Well” how hard it is to “Shake It Off” when it comes to your “Style.” “The Eras” tour is quickly approaching — and you’ll need a “Gorgeous” fit to impress Taylor Swift when she visits Nissan Stadium next week (May 5-7).

Swifties did the hard part, getting tickets — so we’re helping you shop local based on album aesthetics. Pro tip: Make sure your bag’s on the approved list + add a festive strap.

“Red”

You red that right. Wear the color coupled with a little 2012 hipster flair. We’re pairing The Impeccable Pig’s Over The Top Hat and Leave Your Mark Shorts with the Honky Tonk Boots Fringe Tee from Trendy And Tipsy — don’t forget your signature red lip.

“Lover”

Pastels for spring and the “Lover” era. Stop by Molly Green for the Mia Bubblegum Jumpsuit (psst — it’s even on sale). Bonus points for variations of pink throughout because it’s the color of love.

“Folklore” and “Evermore”

The “Folklore” and “Evermore” aesthetics embrace cottagecore vibes with natural colors, flowy materials, and cardigans or flannels. LoveShackFancy has a plethora of fitting dresses like the Karine Mini Dress or Kasiana Midi Skirt paired with a monochrome cropped cardigan.

“1989"

Think: Los Angeles glamour with a pop-princess flair featuring bright colors and glitter. We’d style the Sparkle On Honey Strapless Slit Mini Dress from VICI Collection with bold jewelry selections and a bright kitten heel from Parish.

“Reputation”

Revenge is best served in style — honor the era with an edgy look paired with a little frill for thrill. We’re thinking dark colors, metallics, and faux leather. So, we put together this Article X Leather Muscle Tee from Posh and Sparks Fly Black Tulle Skirt from SVM Boutique. Add a metallic or snakeskin boot to complete the vibe.

“Midnights”

The latest album combines soft glam and mixes of other eras. Embrace the “Lavender Haze” aesthetic with the color purple. We’re crushing on the Metamorphosis Tank from Blush with these Shiny Pleather Shorts from Finnleys and a bootie.

Nashville’s proposed $2.1 billion enclosed stadium is up for a final vote this evening. After five hours of council debate last week, tonight’s meeting kicks off with a public hearing, meaning council members will listen to residents one last time before voting.

Whether or not you plan to speak, read up on the two pieces of legislation related to the stadium deal — one that allows for the construction of the stadium and another that creates a fund for nonprofits. Now that you’re versed on the deal, what questions do you still have? Let us know and we’ll do our best to run it back with an answer for you.

Ready, set, hike — the ball is in your hands. Pretend you’re a council member and respond to our poll on how you would vote in the box below.

We’ll be following this story and will continue to share updates here and on our social media this week.
Poll

Now, pretend you’re a council member. How would you vote?
