Some Swifties are trying to figure out what the details on Taylor Swift’s bag mean. She carried it during a date night in a much-discussed outfit.
On October 12, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were seen enjoying a date night at Torrisi restaurant in New York City. They both looked stylish, but Swift’s all-gold outfit attracted a lot of attention.
While Kelce wore a blue T-shirt from Marni and khaki cargo pants, Swift chose an “Ivy Corset” and “Ivy Skirt” from Annie’s Collection by Annie’s Ibiza, which cost around $795 (£590) for both items.
The singer paired her outfit with $1,140 black platform mules from Versace. She also wore gold jewelry, let her hair down, and carried a $1,423 black and gold shoulder bag from designer Roberto Cavalli.
When photos of Swift and Kelce walking hand-in-hand to the restaurant surfaced, many people took to social media to comment on her look.
“Omg someone get her a stylist because this isn’t it,” one person said. Another echoed, “She could use a stylist. Especially with her money.”
Someone else wondered, “I wonder if she owns any nice clothes? Even jeans and a t-shirt?” Another commenter pleaded, “Just get rid of the bangs already, Taylor.”
More critical remarks followed, with users writing comments like, “Her dress sense is horrible… no style at all,” and “Why is she wearing a costume?”
“It’s giving curtain,” one person joked. Meanwhile, a fan on the fence expressed, “I love Taylor but this new style is…” Another person commented, “These outfits are a disaster.”
However, some comments were positive. “Taylor Swift is SO beautiful,” gushed one admirer. Another said, “Taylor and Travis both look so gorgeous. I love them together.”
A fan added, “They look great! Stylish couple.” Another praised, “Love the snake purse,” referring to the gold monogram on Swift’s Cavalli bag.
The bag featured the letter “R” in the center of two intertwined “C’s” made from gold snakes, leading many Swifties to speculate about its meaning.
Fans wondered if the emblem on the bag hinted at Swift possibly announcing “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)” soon.
“Taylor Swift rocking a bag with the letter ‘R’ and snakes? Could it be ‘Reputation’ era vibes coming back?” one fan wrote. Another added, “Taylor never does anything by accident. Is this a new era of Renaissance or just a nod to the fans?”
Fans are excited because Swift often leaves “easter eggs” to hint at her upcoming plans. They noted that she has already released “Taylor’s Version” of her other albums, leaving only “Reputation” and “1989” expected to drop.
Before the comments about her designer bag, fans thought Swift might announce “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)” during her Eras Tour shows in Australia or Japan in February 2024. They thought this because of an easter egg in her music video for “Bejeweled.”
However, instead, she released her latest album, “The Tortured Poets Department.” On August 20, fans expected an announcement on stage, like she did with “1989 (Taylor’s Version)” and “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version).”
That moment passed, and Swift released the music video for “I Can Do It with a Broken Heart.” Still, fans have continued to speculate about “Reputation.”
Currently, some Swifties think the album might be announced on October 18, the day she starts the final leg of her tour.
As fans await the album announcement, Swift is enjoying her time with her footballer boyfriend.
Before their recent outing in New York City, they had dinner on October 11 with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.
A few days earlier, on October 7, Swift showed her support for Travis Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium while his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, played against the New Orleans Saints.
According to a source, Kelce and Swift’s relationship is “beautiful,” and they manage to balance their busy lives. “It’s all about work-life balance, and everyone is dealing with different things. They just acknowledge how hard it is to manage relationships and everything else,” the source said.
9 things you should never plug into a power strip
When we think of the past, one of the first thoughts that runs through our mind is how people lived without electricity. Nowadays, we can’t even imagine a day without it because all of our appliances and devices run on electricity.
The truth is, however, that most homes don’t have enough power outlets to keep everything running and charged, so most of us rely on power strips without being aware that appliances that consume a lot of energy become dangerous fire hazards when we plug them into a power strip.
Although power strips are the thing to go to when it comes to charging your phone or power an entertainment setup, there are certain devices that should never be plugged into a power strip.
Air conditioners, space heaters, toasters, and other appliances that use high wattage can easily cause power strips to overheat, which can easily lead to a fire hazard.
Even before plugging anything into a power strip consider the ammount of power they support. This is usually listed on the product itself.
High-capacity appliances need to draw a lot of power through an electrical circuit to work. Keep in mind that an appliance does not need to be large in size to draw large amounts of power.
Below is the list of appliances that should never be plugged into a power strip.
1. The oven: Even though the oven is not used continually, it is a power-hungry appliance that should not be plugged into a power strip. In fact, it should be plugged into its own wall outlet on its own circuit.
2. Refrigerator: Refrigerators require a lot of power and frequently cycle on and off which can easily overload a power strip and cause damage. Much like the oven, refrigerators require a wall outlet dedicated solely to powering the appliance.
3. Washing Machine: When turned on, washing machines pull a lot of power. This is the main reason why these appliances shouldn’t share a receptacle with any other appliance or device.
Most washing machines use a max of up to 1400 watts, putting it dangerously close to the max load of most power strips. On top of that while working, washing machines are usually left unattended and work longer hours, at least an hour, which is long enough for a power strip to overheat.
4. Heating: Portable heaters should never be plugged into a power strip because most of them use 1,500 watts of energy on their high setting and they usually run for extended periods of time.
5. Microwave: Since they consume a lot of energy when used, most microwave ovens are plugged into their own receptacle and that is always a good practice.
6. Coffee Maker: Those who own a coffee maker are not fully aware of the power these appliances use, and this is why they should never be plugged into any sort of power strip or extension cord.
7. Toaster: You may think that browning up slices of bread or bagels doesn’t require a lot of energy, but the truth is that toasters use a lot of energy when in use and they should be plugged directly into the receptacle rather than a power strip.
8. Another Power Strip: Power strips are not meant to be used in conjunction with another power strip, although many people do exactly that. This, however, violates most safety codes because it can easily lead to overloading the electrical system.
9. Electronics (Computer, TV, Router): These types of electronic devices don’t necessarily use a lot of power on their own, but they are sensitive to surges and you can find yourself with a burnt out computer or TV very quickly if you plug them into a power strip.
If you want to protect these sensitive devices from power surges, opt for a power strip that functions as a surge protector.
