We’re not above shopping celebrity outfits, especially when we spot one of our favorite stars wearing something that would feel right at home in our own wardrobes. So when Taylor Swift stepped out for a Nobu lunch date with her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, rocking a simple knit sweater styled with a pleated skort, we were instantly curious about those beige, preppy bottoms.
A quick Internet search led us to Sandy Liang’s Paris Skort in Natural, which was not only priced at $695, but was, unfortunately, sold out. But the journey couldn’t—and wouldn’t!—end there. In an effort to recreate Swift’s sweet, spring-ready outfit, we decided to do some more digging, and found similar, under-$200 styles that were equally cute.
Whether you’re in love with the neutral colorway, enjoy the secret shorts detail, or just want a more affordable lookalike, check out these Swift skort alterntives, ahead.
And for those who aren’t into the singer’s whole light academia, Gossip Girl-inspired aesthetic? Not to worry. We also found the bikini brand she wore on her recent Bahama’s vacation, and are excitedly scooping up swimwear ahead of the summer months.
