Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may have been aiming for a relaxed evening in New York City, but their casual night out quickly became a trending topic online.
Fans are used to seeing the global pop star dressed in glamorous outfits, whether on the red carpet or at high-profile events.
However, her understated look during a recent dinner date with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end left some fans pleasantly surprised-while others were quick to critique everything from her outfit to her hair.
Swift stepped out in an effortlessly stylish yet casual ensemble, sporting an oversized gray blazer over a short skirt. Her signature blonde locks were kept straight for the evening, giving off a more laid-back vibe.
Kelce embraced a similarly relaxed style, wearing an unbuttoned gray shirt over a white T-shirt, paired with jeans.
The Super Bowl champion, who has been growing out his hair since his team’s victory, also showcased a fuller beard and dark-framed glasses, adding a slightly different look to his usual persona.

Fans divided over Swift’s hair
Once photos of the couple surfaced on Deux Moi’s Instagram page, fans immediately took to social media to share their opinions.
While many were excited to see Swift and Kelce spending time together, others were quick to comment on the singer’s hair.
“Not Taylor’s hair looking like all of us in middle school not knowing how to straighten the back,” one critic remarked.
Another added: “His hair looks healthier than hers.”
Kelce‘s new appearance also received mixed reviews. Some fans weren’t thrilled about his longer hair, with one bluntly stating, “His hair is terrible.”
But others praised the NFL star’s fresh look, calling it a “hot professor era” and even comparing his outfit to nostalgic fashion trends from the early 2000s.
“He looks like how my brother used to dress in middle school in the early 2000s,” one fan joked, while another made a pop culture reference, writing, “Travis is dressed like Josh from Clueless.”
