Taylor Swift’s relationship with Conor Kennedy seems to be evolving wonderfully, as does her complementary 1950s makeover. Most recently, the darling of country music was spotted pottering around Paris on a classic bike while wearing a pale blue pussybow blouse and knee-length floral skirt topped off with retro shades and feminine ivory pumps. What a transformation!
For the uninitiated amongst you, here are the facts: 18-year-old Conor is the son of Robert F Kennedy Jr and the late Mary Richardson Kennedy. Taylor is a world famous songstress and great admirer of the Kennedy clan, describing the moment she met Ethel Kennedy as ‘the only time in my life I have ever been starstruck.’
Taylor recently bought a $4.9m oceanfront mansion on Cape Cod right across the street from the Kennedy compound where the famous family have spent their summers since 1926. It’s like a storyline straight from a Hollywood movie, no?
The couple may have only been dating for a couple of months, but they’ve already enjoyed two dreamy holidays at the legendary Kennedy base. It’s given Taylor ample opportunity to flaunt her newly-found retro style in an array of polka-dotted beachwear. As they frolicked in the sea and kissed on the dock, the 22-year-old looked more vintage-gorgeous than ever in accordance with America’s legendary first family.
Initally there was the halterneck navy swimsuit followed by a near-identical high-waisted red bikini. Then came the fit-and-flare floral printed frocks and ladylike kitten heels – all topped off with flicky blonde bangs, sultry red lipstick and a pair of Ray-Ban sunnies. Jackie O, eat yer heart out.
Grazia Daily, for one, is delighted by T-Swizzle’s transformation. Just as she picks up Kennedy Jnr, she’s ditched those gold-and-glitzy prom dresses that became her (yawnsville) signature. Well, you know what they say? New man, new wardrobe. Witness her fetching Americana style in the gallery above.
