Forget the Hoop! Embroider White Canvas Sneakers for Spring

We’re falling more and more in love with embroidery everyday. I personally might need to make a new Instagram account to keep track of all my embroidery heroes and inspiration. Recently we discovered Liz Payne and were blown away by her designs (check out her Etsy and Instagram). I mean, her work is WTF amazeballs. With the skills we’ve learned from Embroidery 101, we decided to tackle our own pair of embroidery sneakers for spring. It will take a long time so make this project this weekend or save it for a few days of Netflix marathoning.

Materials + Tools:

white canvas sneakers

– embroidery floss

– beads

– scissors

– embroidery needle

Instructions:

1. Unlace the sneakers and string your first color thread onto the needle. Tie the end of the thread to one of the shoe lace grommets.

2. Cover the sneaker in different patterns and stitches using various colors of thread. Scroll down below to learn basic embroidery stitches or learn in our class Embroidery 101!

3. String beads onto the needle and stitch them onto the sneaker for extra flair.

Alright, I’m not going to lie, the type of canvas sneakers are made from is a lot harder to embroider than the cotton you would normally slide into your embroidery hoop. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. This project took about 10 hours and can easily be done while you Netflix and party. To make the embroidery 100 times easier, unlace both sneakers to really get that needle working.

Tie the end of the thread to one of the shoe lace grommets. You can tie a knot at the end of the thread but it may get in the way of stitching. By tying it to the grommet, it will hold the thread in place and will help avoid the needle from bumping into knots when embroidering.

Poke the needle through the sneaker starting from the inside. Wrap the thread around the needle four times. Stick the needle back through the sneaker right next to where it emerged. Hold the thread in your left hand while you pull the thread with your right hand on the inside of the sneaker to create a nice tight knot.

French knot stitch

Cover the sneaker with tons of french knots. Space them out to create a polkadot look or place them close to each other to create a textured patch.

Satin stitch is used to fill in an area or a shape. Simply make basic stitches right next to each other until you create a solid color-blocked area.

Satin stitch

What I find most fun about embroidery is thinking of the string as a pencil. Create stitches just as you would create lines on a page to make fun markings.

Back at it again with the satin stitch to create small triangles. Make the second stitch right next to the first but slightly longer to create a triangle shape.

Change up the colors of your thread to create a dynamic pattern or keep it all monochromatic and focus on texture, texture, texture!

To create a semi-seamless longer stitch, try using a split stitch. Back stitch into your first stitch so the thread comes up through the fibers of the thread.

Split Stitch

If your fingers are getting sore — I bet they are — try covering more surface area with large triangles.

Finish up the tops of the sneakers with some beaded embroidery. Slide a bead onto the needle and then poke your needle through the sneaker to secure the bead in place. Repeat over and over to create a beaded masterpiece.

Beading is also a time commitment, so if your patience is thin, go ahead and finish off the space with some satin stitches.

Start with the needle coming up from the inside, poke it back into the fabric right next to wear it broke through. Don’t pull the thread all the way. Instead leave a loop. Bring the needle back up about a stitch-length away and pull the needle through. Insert the needle through the loop behind the stitch and pull tightly. Continue this process and you will start to see a chain forming.

Chain stitch

Shapes + embroidery + color (um teal!) + sneakers = dream shoes for sure!

Spring color palette FTW!

Sun and Stone Ankle Strap Sandals

We love this casual take on the tried-and-true gladiator sandals trend that's been around for years. This pair is a much comfier version, with its nice platform and soft leather straps — plus, the camel color can go well with so much in your wardrobe. These could totally be worn with a summer dress or denim shorts to the beach.

Madden Girl Rosette Stiletto

Rosettes all day everyday! These are definitely the shoes of the season. We particularly love this shade of Barbie pink paired with the rosettes — Barbie movie season may be over but Barbie pink is definitely here to stay!

Calvin Klein Heeled Mary Janes

Mary Janes may have seemed like a fall and winter shoe, but the red on these makes them pop perfectly for spring and summer. We recommend styling with a simple black dress and letting your shoes be the star of the show.

Steve Madden Hayden Sandal

Hermes, who? Who wants to spend $900 on a sandal when these are only $59! This is an absolutely insane price, and the shoes are too cute. They're definitely a great summer go-to for casual dressing or even with a cute, summer dress!

Nike Court Vision Low Sneakers

There is one rule I live by: when life gets boring, there's nothing like seeing other people's (fictional) drama. Why worry about the ins and outs of my chores when I can watch a bunch of overdramatic teens go about their own lives, with expertly designed outfits and an amazing soundtrack to boot? Not to mention the fact that there are vampires to fall in love with, small towns to pretend I live in, and a pair of brothers to fight over my — er, the lead's — heart (seriously though, why is it always two brothers?).

This list has just about everything: there's magic, there are treasure hunts, and there's drama just for the sake of drama because that's what it felt like to turn 17 realize that your entire life is stretched out in front of you. For nights when you want to have an existential crisis one moment and ask "How the heck did someone come up with this?" the next, here are the best teen drama shows you can rewatch right now.

The Best Teen Drama Shows In Iconic Locations

Gossip Girl

Nothing, and I mean nothing, will get you in the mood for a trip to New York City like the OG Gossip Girl. Sure, we can't all spend thousands of dollars at Bergdorf's on the regular, or wake up to see the sunrise from our penthouse apartments, but there's a certain je ne sais quoi to seeing a bunch of private schoolers smiling while they absolutely tear each other to shreds.

Image via Fox /IMDb

Beverly Hills, 90210

Like so many teen drama shows (and IRL teen experiences), the kids on Beverly Hills, 90210 spend a lot of time dealing with relationship troubles, exploring what they actually want, and figuring out what life holds for them. I would, however, like some financial compensation for the Brenda-Dylan-Kelly breakup because it is DEVASTATING.

Image via Netflix

Outer Banks

Okay I'll be honest. I'm from the Outer Banks and I am a MENACE every time a new season drops. I am just a sucker for the friends-to-lovers plotlines, Goonies-style adventure, and all of the UNC vs. Duke Easter eggs. The first season also has major Y2K vibes and really just reminds me of home every time I watch it. Have I based my entire summer wardrobe off Sarah Cameron's OBX fashion? Yes. Have I found $40 million in gold? Not yet.

The O.C.

While I rue the day this show took Adam Brody (and Dave Ragowski) away from Gilmore Girls, I can't be *too* mad because The O.C. is gold.

It has that nostalgic thrill that the first day of summer vacation gave me as a kid, just with a lot more entertainment. The Summer x Seth pairing is one of my favorite tropes ever (you just can't go wrong with popular girl x nerdy guy!), and just like everything else it does, the show knocks it out of the park.

New Teen TV Series

The Summer I Turned Pretty

The Summer I Turned Pretty is a newer addition to this list but it's come out of the gate strong. As Emily Longeretta from Variety mentioned, it's one of the few teen drama shows on TV right now that focuses on the characters' relationships and basically nothing else.

Characters navigate family issues and real-world trauma, but there aren't any larger-than-life crazy plot lines that distract from the most important detail: choosing between Jeremiah and Conrad. Kidding!

Every character on this show is infuriating and messy and lovable all at the same time — just like us!

Image via HBO

Euphoria

In my opinion, the way that this HBO Max series contrasts the ultra serious problems among teens with overdramatic makeup is pure art. (Shameless plug for our Euphoria makeup tutorial).

Not only did Zendaya snag the Emmy award for Outstanding Lead Actress In A Drama Series (twice!) but it's also continually made headlines for the ways it shows the horrors of addictions. Even though the aesthetic of the show is glamorous, nothing about the characters' struggles are — and that adds a whole other layer.

Teen Romance TV Shows With Sports

Image via Warner Bros. Television./IMDb

One Tree Hill

One Tree Hillwill forever and always be my favorite teen drama show. It might start off all about sports but it quickly becomes much more than that (even though basketball is still a very important part). Aside from absolutely unhinged plot lines about psycho nannies and stalkers-pretending-to-be-someone's-brother, I was taken aback by how realistic the characters felt the first time I watched.

As fun as the drama can be, the best part of the show is that there are also plenty of moments where the characters just get to exist. My favorite scene of the entire series is at the end of season seven, where there's a sledding montage and everyone just spends time together after a season of hardship. No matter which season is your favorite, this series really emphasizes the beauty of life.

Image via NBC/IMDb

Friday Night Lights

Let me be the proof that you don't have to love football to get into Friday Night Lights. I needed precisely *one* season to fall in love with Matt Saracen and for Minka Kelly's Lyla Garrity to become one of my favorite TV females ever. Were plot lines like experimental surgeries in Mexico and random murders somewhat ridiculous? Yes. Did I watch every single second? Absolutely.

Iconic Teen Drama Shows

Dawson's Creek

Dawson's Creek is another coming-of-age story that resonates so deeply with so many people, and thanks to the way it handles topics like mental health and addiction, it laid the groundwork for so many of our favorite Y2K teen drama shows. Plus, it gave us Joey and Pacey and for that, I will always be grateful.

Image via Alliance Atlantis/IMDb

Degrassi

Before there was Euphoria, we had Degrassi and this show *does not* pull its punches. Sex, drugs, parental issues, disordered eating — Degrassi covers it all. You've also got your pick: The Kids of Degrassi Street, Degrassi Junior High, Degrassi High, Degrassi: The Next Generation, and Degrassi: Next Class.

Image via E4/IMDb

Skins

Effy Stonem remains one of the *most* iconic TV characters in any teen drama. Skins really emphasizes the absurdity of our teenage years, but that craziness is underscored by the tragedies the characters go through — it really pulls at your heart strings!

The Best Teen + Family Dramas

Image via ABC/20th Century Fox Home Entertainment./IMDb

The Wonder Years

If you're looking to balance your drama with some humor, then this is a great series to opt for. Kevin's relationship with Winnie a huge part of The Wonder Years and their experiences together — from trying to make time for each other to the terrifying moment when you realize you have romantic feelings for your friend — are so relatable that you can't help but love them.

Image via The WB/The CW/IMDb

Gilmore Girls

Gilmore Girls falls under one of my favorite categories: shows where nothing happens, but in a relaxing instead of boring way. Stars Hollow (filmed in Washington, Connecticut) the perfect dose of autumn no matter when you watch it (something I'm looking for at all times) and even though Rory Gilmore is a little insufferable TBH, Dave, Luke, and Rory's boyfriends always keep me coming back. (And Rory's outfits, obvi).

Image via ABC Family/Freeform/IMDb

The Secret Life Of The American Teenager

Amy's (Shailene Woodley) whole life turns upside down when she learns that she's pregnant. While moments on the show don't always feel grounded (The "I am such a whore." "Well, you're my whore." scene will forever live in infamy), it did showcase the how teen pregnancy affects friends and family members — and made way for lots of real-world conversations.

Image via Warner Bros. Television/IMDb

Everwood

Every time I remember this teen drama stars Chris Pratt, the "Ariana what are you doing here?" audio automatically plays in my mind. Everwood starts off with a bang when Delia and Ephram's dad moves them from New York City to a small mountain town after the death of their mother. It's as much about family relationships as it is about romantic ones and I love it for that.

Image via Fox/IMDb

Party of Five

When the Salinger children lose their parents, oldest child Charlie is left with custody of both his four siblings and their parents' restaurant. Not only does this series feature Jennifer Love Hewiit and Scream's Neve Campbell, but it also gave us Hallmark Channel and Mean Girls icon Lacey Chabert.

High School TV Shows

Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County

This takes "teen drama show" to a whole new level considering it's a reality show! Not only did it offer a glimpse into the lives of California kids but it also introduced us to Lauren Conrad and thank goodness for that.

Image via NBC/IMDb

Freaks and Geeks

Freaks and Geeks really shows how cool freaks *and* geeks can be, especially considering how stacked the cast is. It also really balances the humor of how much high school can suck with some pretty important messages about identity and friendship. Our favorite quote remains "Just cause a girl speaks her mind doesn't mean she's a psycho." Say it louder for the people in the back!

Image via NBC/IMDb

Saved by the Bell

While this series has plenty of laughs, it also features a surprising amount of real-world teen drama, too. Saved by the Bell touches on everything from addiction to divorce to bullies, but every episode comes to a close in a very satisfying (if somewhat silly) way.

Image via CBC/Fox/IMDb

Edgemont

Edgemont is all about high school — the good and the bad. There's plenty of good *and* bad to go around when the teens are dealing with bullies, unplanned pregnancies, new independence, and a staple in young adulthood: junk food.

Supernatural Teen Drama Shows

Image The CW/IMDb

The Vampire Diaries

If I'm completely honest, I waited a long time to start this show because it looked dumb to me. But let me tell you, for a show about vampires and werewolves, TVD has no right being as good as it is (and it's not just because I dressed like Elena Gilbert throughout all of high school).

You can tell how much everyone cares about each other, and there are such rich relationships between siblings, female friends, and family. Plus did I mention there are vampires and werewolves?

Image via Netflix

Stranger Things

The formative years of middle and high school are hard enough when you think about bullies, relationship drama, and family tension. Add on an alternate dimension, a little girl with super powers, and a faceless monster? Forget about it.

Image via 20th Century Fox Television/IMDb

Buffy The Vampire Slayer

If you've binged The Vampire Diaries and still don't have your fill of all things supernatural then you *have* to watch this classic teen drama. Beneath the fight against demons and other monsters (and a very charming cameo from Pedro Pascal), Buffy dealt with everything from domestic violence to how stressful paying your bills can be.

Image via Netflix

The Society

Fair warning: despite how amazing this series is, it was cancelled by Netflix after one season. Meaning that the teens' sleuthing, fractured relationships, and secrets — not to mention the question of how they end up in another dimension in the first place — are left on a serious cliffhanger. Do I still recommend it? 1000 percent.

Image via CW/IMDb

Nancy Drew

Speaking of sleuthing, the CW's Nancy Drew is one series that will have you looking for clues in literally every episode. Not only is the show compelling, romantic, thrilling, and heart-wrenching, but the casting is also pure gold. You will never be able to convince me Ace isn't *actually* one of the Hardy Boys.

Image via The CW/IMDb

Riverdale

Ah yes, the most unhinged of all unhinged teen drama shows. What started out as a somewhat down-to-earth (if exaggerated) comic adaptation became something that will be a part of the cultural zeitgeist forever.

It's led to countless memes (anyone up for "the epic highs and lows of high school football?"), and watching any episode feels like you're taking part in the best game of Mad Libs ever. Noun (Chad Michael Murray) in an article of clothing (stuntman suit) rides in a mode of transportation (a homemade rocket) — this is a real plot line FYI.

We've got random musical episodes. We've got the shining star that is Cheryl Blossom, Queen of the Bees. We've got some serious maple syrup drama (let's keep Buddy the Elf far, far away). Riverdale really is the gift that keeps on giving.

Ballet flats are all the rage at the moment, and we’re totally on board with this trend revival.

After many years on the outskirts of trending fashion, TikTok’s balletcore has brought ballet flats back in vogue, and for good reason. Ballet flats are comfortable, cute, and versatile — not only in their design, but also in their functionality! Some people can’t wear heels for one reason or another, and ballet flats offer an easy-to-wear, but still stylish alternative to traditional heels and sneakers.

To honor this shoe trend, here are 12 of our favorite ballet flats on the market for all of your upcoming events and outings!

Steve Madden Alisah Ballet Flats in Red Leather

Steve Madden is high-key killing the ballet flats game right now, but this strappy red design is our absolute fave of them all! The smooth leather upper flaunts a matte finish, while the tiny silver buckles on the pair of Mary Janes-inspired adjustable straps have more shine.

Jeffrey Campbell x Free People x Understated Leather Stars Align Ballet Flats

It's safe to say we're obsessed with these star-studded ballet flats from Free People. The tiny celestial appliqués, elastic straps, and small bows that sit at the toes feel whimsical and wonderful for channeling our inner child. These details are what make the shoes unique, but the black colorway tones them down perfectly for everyday wear.

These satiny ballet flats also come in a pinkish nude color and white leather for $168.

Vivaia Margot 2.0 Square-Toe V-Cut Mesh Flats in Lemon

Circus NY Zuri Strap Ballet Flats in Red Poppy

These fiery red ballet flats are going viral right now, and we love to see it! They'll become an instant staple in your summer ensembles once you slide them on. They boast a few more details than your average ballet flat: bows at the toes and crossing straps give these shoes a bit more edge!

You can find these flats from Circus NY in so many colors, it's almost hard to choose one! While the red colorway is super trendy at the moment, you can also shop more subdued colors like cream, gold, and mauve for $80.

Old Navy Mary Jane Square-Toe Ballet Flats in Abalone Pink

Donning the best ballerina color, a light pink shade, these strappy ballet flats from Old Navy will totally help you pull off the balletcore aesthetic year-round.

Dare to stand out in these bright yellow babies! The sunny color will provide an instant lift to any of your spring or summer outfits, especially ones that crave color.

The singular strap secures on either side with a decorative gold button.

You can find these ballet flats on Amazon in a huge range of different colors for $106!

ALOHAS Rosalind Brown Ballet Flats

These unique ballet flats from ALOHAS feature a cinched detail on top of the toes which covers more of your foot. The toe is squared off for peak chicness, and the tied bows add the perfect dose of feminine charm. These ballet flats even feature a tab at the back to help you slide 'em on. The thin heel provides a bit of a boost in height, but doesn't feel noticeable at all.

The most notable news from our resident popstar BFF Taylor Swift (aside from her record-breaking Eras Tour movie, The Tortured Poets Department, and Reputation (Taylor's Version), of course) is her most recent boyfriend update. Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift were first linked after Travis tried to give the singer his phone number during one of her concerts this year. And after a few NFL games, getaway car rides, and restaurant takeovers later, it looks like this relationship isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Here's a timeline on everything we know about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship!

A Timeline Of Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce's Relationship

September, 24 2023 - Taylor Swift Started Attending Kansas City Chiefs Games

Taylor Swift started attending Kansas City Chiefs games in 2023, seemingly after an indirect invite from Travis Kelce himself. When Taylor played her Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium (the Chiefs' home stadium), Travis tried to give her a friendship with his number on it.

“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Travis told his brother after Jason during an episode of their New Heights podcast. “I was a little butt hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”

Considering Taylor Swift has now gone to many Chiefs games — and nearly broken the internet — we're pretty sure he's not upset anymore!

On September 24, 2023, Taylor Swift watched the NFL game with Travis' mom, Donna. After the football game — in which Taylor sat with Donna, and created (another) pop culture phenomenon with a single photo — not only did Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce leave the Arrowhead Stadium locker room together, but they also drove away in Travis' convertible as a pair!

October 1, 2023 - Taylor Brought Some Friends To Watch The Chiefs

On October 1, 2023, Taylor was joined by all-star BFFs Sabrina Carpenter, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner, and Hugh Jackman to watch the Chiefs play against the New York Jets. While Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift didn't leave the stadium together after *this* game was over, the fact that Taylor was surrounded by so many of her friends felt like they were there to support something quite special. 💓

We'd be remiss not to mention a few easter eggs from this game while we're at it! This romance feels so much like a callback to Taylor's 1989 era, where she spent a lot of 2013 to 2015 hanging with her friends in the coolest NYC spots. Plus, she's wearing all black (and some edgy accessories on her shorts) while we all speculate on what she's up to and who she's dating, which is not too dissimilar from her Reputation era. 👀

October 12, 2023 - Taylor Swift Makes A Good First Impression

We know Taylor always tries to make a good impression (hello "Mirrorball!"), but it turns out, she also makes a good impression without even trying.

The first time Taylor met Travis Kelce's dad, Ed, he noticed how genuine she was when she started helping around the suite. “She gets up to go get a drink or something, and she starts picking up empty bottles, cans, plates that are scattered around," he toldPeople. “And I'm just thinking, 'I don't think she got the diva memo. She didn't get the spoiled musician. She doesn't know how to pull that off.' And that really to me said a whole lot.”

October 14, 2023 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Were On SNL

Yes, Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce were both on the October 14 episode of Saturday Night Live in 2023. The couple attended the SNL afterparty together and fans were very quick to spot how much the football player took care of the singer. He opened doors for her, made sure she was okay, and reportedly even told a bodyguard that he could step aside. When I first saw the images, they looked so much like a rom-com cover to me that I thought they were photoshopped!

Then on the following Sunday night, Travis and Taylor were seen in New York City again as they made their way into a restaurant (once again holding hands!). It might be important for Swifties to note that both of Taylor's outfits are black, edgy, and very Reputation-coded... I can't wait to see what she has up her sleeve!

October 19, 2023 - Travis Apparently Plans To Visit Taylor On Her International Tour

At this point, ET had reported that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were "all in" on their relationship, according to an inside source. They told the outlet that Travis intended to head to Buenos Aires, Argentina while he was on a bye-week for the Kansas City Chiefs. We hope he was able to give her those friendship bracelets this time! 😘

October 22, 2023 - Taylor Swift Is Improving Travis Kelce's Game

After a 31-17 win on October 22, 2023, Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid acknowledged Taylor's influence on Travis' game during a press conference. He noted that Travis' performance is only improving and that “Taylor can stay around all she wants.”

Image via @chiara_ / Instagram

The October 22 game also appeared to be the couple's official hard launch. Chiefs wide reciever Mecole Hardman Jr.'s girlfriend Chariah Gordon posted a series of photos with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce after the game — including this one where Taylor's kissing Travis on the cheek! Swoon!

October 31, 2023 - Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Celebrate Halloween Together

On an episode of Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast, Travis said he loves the idea of a dinner party on Halloween night. "Like a Halloween dinner party. Everybody comes in costumes and we have a party," he says in the conversation.

But he also refuses to admit what costume he picked. "I'm gonna let mine be a surprise," he says. "I'll make sure everybody sees it, and we'll talk about it after Halloween."

Photo by David Eulitt/Getty Images

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship only continues to get deeper in October 2023, especially since a source told ET Online that Taylor could be the one for Travis: "Everyone close to Travis loves that he is happy. He is on the path to finding that special person in Taylor."

However, given the frenzy around Taylor, and the media coverage of their relationship in general, Travis' family is also fairly concerned for their safety. (And after hundreds of fans showed up uninvited to see Taylor attend a private wedding, we kind of are too, TBH).

"They're so appreciative of their fans, but hope to keep some aspects of their relationship private going forward," the source continued. "This level of stardom is something new to Travis, and although he can handle it, he is still getting used to it. Safety is a major concern among everyone, especially given how passionate fans feel about their relationship."

November 5, 2023 - Taylor Swift (Virtually) Celebrates Travis Kelce's New Record

After the Kansas City Chiefs game on November 5, 2023, People posted on Instagram celebrating Travis Kelce's new title as the KC Chiefs' leading receiver with 10,941 receiving yards. Taylor Swift liked the post, and considering she's very strategic and intentional about her Instagram activity, Swifites were very excited.

"Me giggling cuz TS liked this post," one user commented. "It’s an interesting time for Taylor & Kelce" another said. "They are both at supremely high career success points. What joy!"

On November 9, 2023, a source told US Weeklythat Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce “actually spend a lot of one-on-one time together and have developed a very real connection," plus the fact that "they have very detailed plans coming up on how to stay together while she’s on tour and he has games.”

November 11, 2023 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Have A Rom-Com Moment

On November 11, 2023, Taylor changed the lyrics of her song "Karma" from "Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me" to "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me" (a move that seemed somewhat spontaneous considering how surprised her backup dancers were!).

Travis revealed on the November 15 episode of the New Heights podcast that he had a "little bit of a clue" she'd change the lyrics. 👀

"Definitely when I heard it come out of her mouth, [it] still shocked me," he said. "I was like...'Oh, she really just said that, alright.'" He was so shocked in fact, that he didn't even realize Taylor's dad was trying to high five him. "Mr. Swift, I apologize big guy," he continued. "I never miss a high five too, big high five guy!"

And, after the show, Taylor went straight up to Travis standing outside a VIP tent and the coupleshared a kiss. It felt like it was straight out of a rom-com — a pop star running up to a star football player and surprising him with a kiss! The crowd at the concert went wild, but the internet also couldn't stop talking about it!

"This is sooooo adorable," one X user said. "Her little run. His hands behind his back like he’s waiting for his prom date or something. Ughhh they’re both in deep."

November 20, 2023 - Travis Kelce Spills On His Relationship In WSJ Magazine

Travis Kelce once again broke the internet with his WSJ Magazine cover story. In it, he talks about football, his family, and (of course) Taylor Swift. “I’ve never been a man of words. Being around her, seeing how smart Taylor is, has been f*cking mind-blowing," he says. “Obviously I’ve never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them…But at the same time, I’m not running away from any of it…She’s just living, enjoying life. When she acts like that I better not be the one acting all strange.”

Even Kelce's mom had something to add! “I can tell you this,” she says in the interview. “He’s happier than I’ve seen him in a long time… God bless him, he shot for the stars!”

Fans were also hoping to find out if Taylor and Travis were spending Thanksgiving together. Via Page Six, Taylor was set to fly back from her Eras Tour shows in Rio de Janeiro to spend the holidays in the states before heading back for another show on November 24. TMZreported that the couple "plans to be together for the holidays," which included lining their schedules up to spend as much time together as they can.

Taylor celebrated another one of Travis' milestones on Instagram, when she liked a post from the Kansas City Chiefs. "Fastest tight end to 11k receiving yards AND the only player in franchise history to do it," the post says. According to a Daily Mail source, as soon as Taylor Swift's Eras Tour wrapped up its 2023 dates, she moved into Travis' private Kansas City mansion (which he reportedly bought for them to spend time together) for the duration of her break — which included her birthday and Christmas.

December 3, 2023 - Taylor Shows Up To The Chiefs Game Looking Festive

Taylor Swift hung out in the box seats with Brittany Mahomes in Green Bay, Wisconsin during the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Green Bay Packers.

Not only is Taylor Swift's jacket KC Chiefs red, but it was also totally Christmas appropriate! "Travis' friends think this is the real deal for him,” an insider told Peopleat the end of November 2023. “They're still a little shocked by all of it — that he's dating the Taylor Swift, but they've seen how down to earth she is with his friends and family.”

But before Taylor donned her Elmo-approved red coat, the couple was already in the Christmas spirit. They showed up to Miracle, a pop-up bar in Kansas City, on December 1, for the Chiefs' holiday party. It appears they were wearing some festive sweatshirts (as well as Taylor's signature red lip). I hope they also got to have some more chicken with "seemingly ranch".

December 6, 2023 - Taylor Talks Travis In Her TIME Person Of The Year Article

There's been pleeeeenty of speculation about when Taylor and Travis actually started dating. Was it that first Chiefs game? Were they just friends still? Was it before that game? While only the lovebirds know their true timeline, Taylor gave us a peek behind the curtain in her TIME MagazinePerson of the Year article.

According to Tay herself, the pair started hanging out immediately after Travis first mentioned her on his New Heights podcast. She said, “We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other. By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”

Swift continued by explaining that she and Travis "show up for each other" and that they're "just proud of each other." BRB, sobbing.

On December 8, 2023, an insider told Life & Style Mag that Travis is planning something special for Taylor's 34th birthday on December 13. “Travis has something special planned,” they say. “He’s arranged a very intimate romantic dinner just for the two of them, and is also trying to pull off a semi-surprise party with the help of some of her closest friends."

The insider also says Travis could use the evening to propose to Taylor, which we would *totally* be in favor of.

December 10, 2023 - Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Share Some Swoon-Worthy PDA

After the KC Chiefs and Buffalo Bills game on December 10, 2023, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce went out with the team to celebrate. They wound up back at the Miracle pop-up bar! The evening was sure to lift Travis' spirits after the Chiefs' loss, and I, for one, need to make Taylor's Christmapolitan drink ASAP.

Thanks to the Chiefs' barber, @patty_cuts, we also have a pic of Taylor and Travis embracing each other at the bar! If you ask me, this deserves to be a movie poster, because I feel like we're living in a real-life rom-com. And apparently, one of their friends agrees!

"We had an amazing time," Chetarah Jackson (a friend of Travis' who sat with Taylor in the suite at the game) told ET. "Taylor and Travis are so in love. It was so cute seeing them together and I can see them getting married."

December 17, 2023 - Taylor Swift Gets Cozy At The Chiefs x Patriots Game

Taylor Swift showed up to the KC Chiefs vs. New England Patriots game looking both comfy and cute in a Chiefs sweatshirt and beanie. In addition to Alana Haim and Brittany Mahomes, Taylor's dad, Scott Swift, also showed up to the game, which ended up being a big deal because he wore KC Chiefs gear after he's been a lifelong Philadelphia Eagles fan! 👀

Scott wasn't the only one having fun with the couple! Kaleigh Teller (Miles Teller's wife and a good friend of Taylor Swift) recently liked a TikTok speculating Travis got Taylor a very special birthday present: the ring Taylor wore during her party. It appears to be an opal stone surrounded by blue topaz, and if that's true, it has so much meaning because Travis' birthstone is opal and Taylor's is blue topaz! Thoughtful gifts are our absolute favorites... and it looks like they're Travis' too.

Travis also told People that even though he had a game on Christmas Day (his brother Jason does, too), the holiday "will be a fun one."

"My brother sent me a text and said he’s going to be celebrating afterwards," Travis continued. He also confirmed that he's planning on celebrating Christmas after the 25th too — hopefully with Taylor!

According to Page Six, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce also spent the rest of the holidays together.

December 22, 2023 - Patrick Mahomes Talks Taylor And Travis 👀

Patrick Mahomes hopped on CBS Morningsin December and gave his inside scoop on Taylor and Travis. While noting how comfortable Taylor is with "Chiefs Kingdom," Patrick also took a moment to recognize her many achievements.

"He's lucky enough to be with a great girl and a great woman, and it's been cool to interact with her because she's top tier of her profession — and how she drives and she becomes that, it's really cool to hear about and to see." He followed up by saying, "I'm glad that she's the person that she is, and that's why I think her and Travis match so well."

Clearly, Tay got the BFF stamp of approval!

December 31, 2023 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Share An NYE Kiss

After a Chiefs win, Taylor and Travis stepped out in style at a NYE party with their friends and family. Travis wore a Midnights-esque outfit, in head-to-toe brown courduroy — come on, '70s!

Of course, Taylor made the whole place shimmer in a stunning silver sequin dress by Cleo Peppiatt, paired with celestial hair pins and her signature red lip, which was allegedly smudged later on in the night. 😘

We got a peek at the kiss in question on Instagram, originally posted by @krystenrachelle. It's definitely giving, "I want your midnights!" 😍

January 21, 2024 - Taylor Swift Hangs Out With Jason And Kylie Kelce

After months of attending Travis Kelce's games, Taylor Swift was finally in the box at the same time as Jason Kelce's wife, Kylie, and this is a WAG friendship we are *totally* here for.

Despite the media pitting them against each other, the two women were seen laughing and spending time together in the box, which really just leads me to wonder why we're constantly obsessed with women not being friends? "Kylie is so great," a source told People. "Everybody loves her."

The most talked-about moment from the game, however, can be chalked up to Jason Kelce, who jumped out of the box shirtless and started yelling at the top of his lungs. He's since been called the KC Chiefs' “No. 1 hype man,”been compared to Gabriela Montez, and gotten people's hopes up for a very lively best man speech.

Someone also captured Taylor Swift's reaction to Jason's viral moment, and it's just as funny as the moment itself!

Taylor wasn't the only one who knows how to be goofy — Travis Kelce's teammate Patrick Mahomes told People that despite the newfound media frenzy over Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce (and achieving his "dream" of being on SNL), Travis remains just as fun and down-to-earth as he always was.

“Travis has always been Travis,” Patrick told People. “He still will walk through the stadium and treat every single person like they’re his best friend. And he’s going to be like that in the locker room every single day.”

January 28 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Celebrate A Chiefs Win... And Break The Internet

After the Kansas City Chiefs won a game against the Baltimore Ravens on January 28, the team was headed to the Super Bowl! Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce celebrated with a kiss on the field, and fans have been comparing their total rom-com moment to everyone from One Tree Hill's Lucas and Peyton toA Cinderella Story's Austin and Samever since.

But the biggest moment of the night was when, during their embrace, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce could be heard saying "I love you." According a post-game video, Travis says, “Tay, I'm going to enjoy with the guys I love you... so much it’s not even funny.” And it appears Taylor responds with “I love you too... I’ve never been so proud, EVER.” Then they go in for a kiss and a bear hug. OMG!

Jason Kelce later went on to add Taylor in with the rest of the family on the New Heights podcast: “We had the whole family down on the field. We had me, Mom, Dad, and Taylor. Everybody was down there.” Stop it right now, Jason!

In addition to a mockneck red sweater, Taylor was decked out in a gold friendship bracelet of her + Travis' initials, as well as #87-themed jewelry to support her BF. I also find it *very* important info that Taylor Swift is a square nail gal (Will this inspire my next manicure? Only time will tell).

I predicted that Taylor would show up the the Super Bowl, despite wrapping up the Tokyo leg of the Eras Tour the day before. I thought this would be a huge moment because, despite being asked to perform multiple times, Taylor has never actually performed at the Super Bowl, so she's never really had a reason to go.

Another popular fan theory is that in the past, this was due to Taylor Swift being a face of Diet Coke (she really is just like us!), while the halftime show has historically had Pepsi as a sponsor.

February 5, 2024 - Travis Kelce Supports Taylor Swift's The Tortured Poet's Department

After Taylor Swift announced her new album, The Tortured Poets Department, at the 2024 Grammys, Travis Kelce showed support for the new album during a press conference — and he's just as excited about the new music as we are!

"She's unbelievable, she's rewriting history books herself," he said of her fourth Album of the Year win. "I told her I'll have to hold up my end of the bargain and come home with some hardware too...It's been fun to kind of gather the Swifties in the Chiefs' kingdom and open them up to the football world and the sports world."

"I have heard some of [Taylor Swift's new album], yes, and it is unbelievable," he continued. "I can't wait for her to shake up the world when it finally drops."

Travis *also* responded to the rumors that he's looking to propose to Taylor Swift after a reporter straight up asked whether there'd be more than just a Super Bowl ring if the Chiefs won the Big Game.

"I’m focused on getting this ring, and that’s all that my mind’s focused on right now," Travis said.

February 11, 2024 - Taylor Swift Attends The Super Bowl And Catches A Nail-Biting Chiefs Win

Taylor Swift was there to witness the Kansas City Chiefs spar off against the San Fransisco 49ers at Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas and ultimately see Travis' team win the game in overtime 25-22.

Taylor was spotted in box seats alongside her girl gang, Blake Lively, Ice Spice, and Ashley Avignone. Lana Del Rey joined the squad later in the game, too!

Taylor quickly tossed back a few drinks as the excitement ramped up (iconic if you ask me) in the first half of the game. After the big victory, she swiftly ran to the field to celebrate with Travis.

“Come here, girl," he said to her. They instantly embraced and shared a long kiss in celebration of the Chiefs win. But that wasn't all!

Taylor tagged along with Travis and his teammates to the official Super Bowl after-party at Zouk Nightclub in Las Vegas. The couple danced and sang, and the club even played a few of Taylor's hits! The couplekissed during "Love Story"and even pointed at each other across the dance floorwhile a remix "You Belong With Me" blasted. Travis Kelce switched up the lyrics, singing "Are you in love with me?" instead of "You belong with me" — to which Taylor raised her glass, smiled, and danced the night away. 🎶 If you ask me, this viral moment is just the latest profession of love between the two.

“I love how he just came very quickly when your song was on,” model Marianne Fonseca tells Taylor Swift in a viral clip. “That was the most romantic thing ever.”

"We met in the middle, and I was like, 'What is my life right now?'" Taylor jokes.

The power duo left the function wearing matching glittery black outfits, holding hands the entire time. To say we're obsessed is a true understatement.

So, what's next for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce?

Taylor will continue to embark on the international leg of her Eras Tour in Australia starting February 16. Based on everything the couple's been through so far, we don't see them going anywhere.

February 21, 2024 - Did Travis Kelce go to Australia to see Taylor Swift? Yes!

Our fave couple continues to enjoy their time together. A source told People that they are "really happy" and "having a lot of fun, but they're still seeing where it goes." Travis Kelce also landed in Sydney on February 21 to support Taylor Swift (and our gal Sabrina Carpenter) during the Australian leg of the Eras Tour. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce spent an afternoon at the Sydney Zoo, but did they act out any scenes from Anyone But You? We can only hope.

Travis Kelce had plenty to say about Taylor Swift in an episode of his podcast New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce. “They helicoptered us! Well, not us, Taylor,” he says. “This is all because Taylor is the biggest and the best thing possible."

While Travis was almost entirely focused on Taylor during the conversation about Australia, he couldn't help but mention his favorite zoo animals. "The kangaroos were pretty sweet, got to see a red panda up close and personal," he continues. "It’s like a friendly raccoon...saw a tiger sitting up in a tree house, that sh*t was f*cking sweet, ain’t gonna lie."

February 23, 2024 — Taylor Swift Celebrates Travis Kelce At The Eras Tour

During her first concert in Sydney, Australia, Taylor Swift added a few blink-and-you'll-miss-'em details to her show in honor of Travis Kelce. She ended up pointing directly to him during "Willow," when she sings "that's my man," and during "Long Live," when she sings "when they gave us our trophies" (in honor of his Super Bowl win!). She also changed the "Karma" lyrics to "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me." And when the concert was done? Taylor ran directly to him and gave him a big kiss. Rom-com energy!!

“When she started to come around, it was privately,” defensive backs coach Dave Merritt tells The Sports Shop With Reese & Kmac. “She was coming into the stadiums without people really knowing until the camera put a big spotlight on it.”

"[Taylor Swift] actually affected the team in a positive way," Dave continues. "Everybody was excited that Travis was happy. So when my player, my brother, is happy beside me, that helps me and that encourages me."

And after Travis started dating Taylor, Dave saw even more of a shift! "And so Travis came in there a different man...She won a Super Bowl in her first year in the NFL," he jokes. "How about that?"

March 13, 2024 — Travis Kelce Talks About The Eras Tour In Singapore

It looks like Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter are in their lover era because both Travis Kelce and Sabrina Carpenter's boyfriend Barry Keoghan showed up to the Eras Tour in Singapore!

"Fun times in Singapore," Travis says on the New Heights podcast he shares with Jason Kelce. "I got to check out the world's largest greenhouse. How about that? I'm a big plant guy. Loved seeing f*cking enormous trees. It was cool as f*ck, they had the world's biggest waterfall in a greenhouse, too...It was awesome man. Everything was blooming at the same time, it was so f*cking unique and so nice."

But Travis *also* got to go to two Eras Tour concerts ahead of Taylor Swift's latest hiatus (she's on a break until her first Paris concert on May 9th) — and enjoyed the shows just as much as the sights!

"I got to see two amazing shows of the Eras Tour," Travis continues. "The last of the leg that Taylor has until she's back at it here in a couple months. Yeah outside of that, got to eat some lovely Singapore food and just catch the views. Everything over there just seems so nice."

March 20, 2024 — Travis Kelce Can't Stop Watching Love Is Blind

After a crazy year of the Eras Tour and the Super Bowl, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are focusing on their time together! "They’re focused on rest and recuperation and relaxing at home and having low-key and chill time together,” a source tells Us Weekly. “They are enjoying movie nights in her home theater, catching up on films and shows they’ve missed.”

We're always wondering what our favorite stars are binge watching right now, and apparently, Travis Kelce watchlist includes Love Is Blind. "You gotta watch Love Is Blind," he tells his brother Jason Kelce on a recent episode of New Heights. "It is the worst trash ever — it's worse than Catching Kelce — but it is so f*cking good." (Jason's not so convinced).

But considering Travis almost seems like he's loving the show against his will, it's making me wonder if he's watching it with Taylor Swift — or if Taylor's the one who got him to watch it in the first place. I could totally see Travis and Taylor curled up on the couch with a plate of chai cookies, a blanket, and Netflix. Cozy!

March 20, 2024 — Travis Kelce Says He "Can't Wait" To Have Kids

On that same episode of New Heights, Travis Kelce also let it slip he may be ready for kids sooner than later. When the Super Bowl winner was talking about NBA player Victor Wembanyama, Travis joked he was so talented he must have been engineered.

“You can’t tell me that dude wasn’t made in a f*cking lab over there in France," Travis says. “Can’t wait til I f*ckin’ make one.”

“Don’t do this," Jason jokes. "Do not give any of these other conspiracy theorists anything else to latch onto, please.” Oops, it might be too late Jason!

After their Bahamas vacation, Taylor and Travis grabbed a Sunday lunch in Malibu. They both looked super cute and springy with Taylor wearing a bright blue sweater, a tan skort, and loafers, while Travis wore an oatmeal-colored pullover, hat, and a friendship bracelet.

“We are both very career-driven," he tells Entertainment Tonight. "I think we both love what we do and any chance that I can show my support to her — knowing that she has shown me all the support in the world throughout the season — it’s just been an amazing experience getting to know Tay."

Travis hasn't confirmed which concerts he'll show up to, but he does say the London shows are "can't-miss" concerts. "I think she’s at Wembley [Stadium] eight times?" he says. "Which is mind-blowing that she can do that many shows in one stadium and fill that thing up."

April 10 — Travis Kelce Doesn't "Know How" He Managed To Date Taylor Swift

On a spring episode of his New Heights podcast, Travis Kelce admits he's still shocked he's dating Taylor Swift. "I don't know how I did it because she wasn't into sports," he says. "So I don't know how the f*ck I did it." But considering Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are two of the biggest people in the entire world, I am more than happy they found each other!

So, what's the relationship between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce?

According to Taylor herself (via an interview with Time), the pair started seeing each other right after Travis "called her out" on his New Heightspodcast in July.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship continues to get more serious. “They share a strong work ethic and have a huge appreciation for life and their careers, strong family bond and values," the insider tells People.

An insider also shared that during Taylor's break from the Eras Tour (during September and October), she enjoyed catching up with all of her friends and “had fun spending time with Travis.“ We cannot get enough of this couple!

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were both born in 1989. Travis just turned 34 on October 5, and since Taylor Swift's birthday is December 13, she's 34 now, too!

After Travis and Taylor left Arrowhead Stadium together, some Swifties noticed Travis was wearing a blue and white set, and wondered whether it served as a 1989 (Taylor's Version) double release Easter egg.

This post has been updated.

Blake Lively was just spotted living her best life vacationing in Capri, Italy donning the cutest one-piece swimsuit – in perhaps one of the most unexpected colors for the season!

Miss Blake took a break from filming A Simple Favor 2 to board a boat (jealous!) wearing a bold coral swimmie from Gooseberry Intimates – and I was immediately convinced 2024 is finally the year of one-piece swimsuits. Ugh, her power!

Unlike most celebrity style we're seeing these days, Blake's swimsuit is super easy to track down and is fairly accessible price-wise. Below, find all the details you need to know about Blake's one-and-done vacay look before you snag the ultimate swim staple for yourself.

Shop Blake Lively's One-Piece Swimsuit

Gooseberry Intimates One Piece in Coral

This $99 swimsuit from Gooseberry Intimates is downright flirty. Just look at that plunging neckline! The v-neck effect is overwhelmingly sultry and sexy, so there'll be no doubt that you'll feel confident AF every beach or pool day you wear it. No wonder celebs like Blake Lively, Sydney Sweeney, Kendall Jenner, and Vanessa Hudgens love it!

The bottom half of the suit boasts a cheeky cut with a playful high leg that adds a flattering elongating effect on your legs. Since it's specifically crafted to sculpt your figure, there are no annoying cups or inserts to mess with, plus the material is double-lined for additional peace of mind!

The suit comes in sizes XS-XL and is fitted with thin adjustable spaghetti straps so you can find your perfect fit. The solid color opens doors for endless styling possibilities, whether you wear it with a swimsuit cover-up to prep for the pool or with a flowy maxi skirt on dry land. You can also shop it in 14 other hues, from key lime green to royal blue.

With solid TLC, this Gooseberry Intimates swimsuit can last you years and years (and years). Now that's what I call a good investment. According to the brand, "each garment is hand dyed, cut and sewed to order," so you can get excited knowing this one-piece was made just for you.

More Must-Have Summer Suits From Gooseberry Intimates

Gooseberry Intimates One Piece Cutout Black

This luxe-looking black one-piece swimsuit is also made from figure-sculpting materials that hug you in in all the right places. Compared to Blake Lively's coral swimsuit, this one has a bit more coverage up top and on the bottom. The double-lined fabric swarms the entire suit with comfort and coverage, including the bust and the medium-coverage brief areas.

The exposed back and keyhole cutout in the front are sure to turn all heads toward you. The scoopneck suit flexes some sleek gold hardware: a ring in the front, and an adorable little tag on the back for added elegance.

This chic cutout piece comes in 6 other colors, so you're bound to land on one that fits your vibe the most. It's shoppable in sizes XS-XL for $99!

Gooseberry Intimates One Piece Tank Baby Pink

This one-piece is probably my favorite of them all. Sure, the square neckline feels less revealing up top, but the style is still super sexy with high legs and a cheeky brief cut. Plus, I just can't resist baby pink!

This pick is crafted with Gooseberry Intimates' signature double-lined fabric for added modesty (love it!), and it comes in especially handy for wearing lighter colors like this subtle pink.

The thin, adjustable straps don't feel intrusive, which is great for when you're strolling along the sand or dipping your toes in the pool. It comes in sizes XS-XL and 5 other eye-catching colors for $99.

Gooseberry Intimates Sculpting Top Rum + Bikini Bottom

This bikini top feels like it's inspired by vintage lingerie, and I'm ​very ​here for it! The seaming on the underwired bust is reminiscent of your classic balconette bra, except this suit flaunts a tad more coverage. You're easily able to find your perfect swimsuit fit with the help of adjustable straps and a back clasp closure. 

The double-lined bottoms, on the other hand, aren't adjustable, but stretch accordingly to your shape. They are perfectly mid-rise and cheeky, with a flirty high-cut leg in tow. While I adore this rusty red color, this set also comes in black, white, royal blue, and baby pink. 

This bikini is currently shoppable in sizes XS-L. The top is $55 and the bottoms are $45. ​
