America's sweetheart, Taylor Swift, has stolen our hearts over and over. And we are never, ever, EVER, getting them back. We've made up a list -- no, not a list of long ex-lovers (or Starbucks lovers), but a list of 22 reasons why this queen of style, in every way, continues to slay. T-Swizzle, you have that classic thing that WE like, and here's why:
1. She's the ultimate #relationshipgoals.
Her new romance with popular DJ, Calvin Harris, has us melting with every Instagram post, steamy congratulation hug/kiss, and hand-holding public outing. Um, can you say POWER COUPLE?!
2. She's the epitome of #squadgoals.
You probably won't ever catch her without her squad, and there's a reason for that. She's BFF's with Hollywood's elite. Included in her crew: Beyoncé, Lorde, Justin Timberlake, Kendall Jenner, Selena Gomez, Karlie Kloss, Zendaya, etc.
3. Her killer dance moves.
It's rare to NOT see Taylor Swift at an award show going hard, dancing, to other artists' music. She flaunts her moves on the stage too... and the music video scene... and the football field... and well, pretty much anywhere and everywhere.
4. Her charitable and giving heart.
You know those really rare celebrities that actually have a heart for the less fortunate? Yeah, it totally exists, and you can see that with T-Swizzle. Over the years she's happily donated her time, money, and care, to over 26 charities as well as other individuals that are in need of it.
5. Her hip style of course.
Taylor is one of the top trendsetters of our generation. She constantly takes our breath away with her fashionable, tasteful, and gorgeous vogue.
6. She writes her own songs.
Just when we thought she couldn't get any better. Her chart crushing songs and hard hitting lyrics are all her own creation. Beauty AND brains -- double whammy.
7. Her lyrics hit us in the feels EVERY TIME.
No matter the topic of song, she finds a way to make her tunes cut deep. Lyrical freaking genius.
8. She adores her fans.
Without fail, at every single award acceptance speech she pours out gratitude and thanks to her fans. She even surprised her fans with loaded presents during the holiday season.
9. She treats her cats like royalty.
The only thing better than being a part of her squad is being her pet. Enough said.
10. She values feminism.
She understands the hardships females endure, and makes sure women are empowered, encouraged, and independent.
11. Taylor doesn't just sing, she raps too.
That one time she made her own rap song with T-Pain, called "Thug Story." Or when she had a rap verse in "Shake It Off." Oh, don't forget when she featured Kendrick Lamar rapping throughout "Bad Blood." Later country music, hello hip-hop.
12. She invites other top chart artists to join her on the stage of her World Tours.
She surprises her fans with a guest artist appearance every show of her world tours. Basically part two to #squadgoals.
13. Her posts are always fire.
Whether it's an Instagram picture, Tweet, or Facebook post, this girl trends with thousands of views, followers, likes, favorites, retweets, and comments -- natural for a queen.
14. She's transformed the music industry.
It doesn't really matter which era of T-Swift you listen to, she's topped the charts countless times in each of her albums, which all have a genre of their own.
15. She owns the party-throwing scene.
When you're friends with the in crowd of Hollywood, your boyfriend is a famous DJ, and you love to shake shake shake it off, of course throwing tons of rad parties just becomes the norm.
16. She constantly breaks records.
Even though she continues to trump every award category she gets nominated in, she remains humble, shocked, and grateful. Basically her head never gets too big, although it has every reason to.
17. She convinced Apple to do things her way.
When Apple made a decision that would end up ripping artist's off, Taylor Swift made a request to have their minds changed. Her wish was granted. *cough cough* SLAY.
18. She's gone Triple Platinum.
With the release of her album "Red" in 2012, she became Triple Platinum. The only artist of that year to become Triple Platinum, NBD.
19. Taylor's a class act.
She doesn't need to be half-naked and promoting sex culture in order to gain fans and win endless amounts of awards. She upholds class in the most modern way.
20. She's relatable.
A lot of critics like to make fun of her choice of topic with her songs (males). I guess they forgot that each and every one of her tracks resonates with the people she sings for, her fans.
21. She never flies too high up from the ground.
No matter how much fame she gets, she always has her mom, dad, and/or brother right next to her, keeping her grounded.
22. Most of all, she taught us to shake it off.
Some of the best advice our girl Tay has ever given us is to just shake it off, even in the most awkward, unfortunate, and painful moments.
So here it is, just a handful of reasons why we're enchanted by the ever so lovely Taylor Swift. She will long live in our hearts, and absolutely never go out of style.
