The more I see of Taylor Swift, the more I feel myself becoming a Swiftie! It’s hard not to admire her as a role model for so many teenage girls – while being fun and empowering, Taylor’s lyrics address social and political issues in a very accessible and real way. I’ve also always liked her distinctive, easily pretty aesthetic. Swifties are often identifiable through their outfit choices and trademark colour scheme. If your teen is a devoted Swiftie, to celebrate Taylor Swift’s London appearance this August, we’ve got the perfect guide to help you create a dreamy Taylor Swift themed bedroom that will make your teen feel like she’s in her very own love story.
- Start with a Color Palette Inspired by Taylor’s Albums
Taylor Swift’s albums each have a distinct aesthetic, and choosing a color palette that mirrors her musical eras can be a great starting point:
- Lover: Pastel pinks, blues, and purples.
- Folklore and Evermore: Earthy tones like greens, browns, and soft creams.
- 1989: Bold, electric blues and pinks.

- Wall Décor: Quotes and Album Art
Taylor Swift is known for her poetic lyrics. Decorate the walls with some of her most iconic quotes in elegant calligraphy. You can find pre-made wall decals online or create custom ones. Additionally, framed album covers or posters of Taylor Swift can serve as fantastic focal points. 
- Furniture with a Vintage Twist
Much like Taylor’s love for vintage aesthetics, opt for furniture that has a touch of retro charm. Think tufted headboards, classic wooden desks, and elegant vanities. You can find vintage-inspired pieces at local thrift shops or opt for modern reproductions that offer a timeless appeal.
- Cozy Textiles and Fairy Lights
Taylor Swift’s music often evokes a sense of coziness and warmth. Incorporate soft, plush textiles like faux fur throws, velvet cushions, and layered bedding to create a snug ambiance. Fairy lights or string lights can add a whimsical touch, perfect for recreating that concert or music video vibe. 
- Personal Touches: Swiftie Memorabilia
Dedicate a section of the room for displaying Swiftie memorabilia. This could include concert tickets, fan art, or limited-edition merchandise. A bulletin board or a dedicated shelf can keep these treasured items organized and on display.
- Creative Workspace
If your teen is inspired by Taylor’s songwriting, consider setting up a creative workspace. A stylish desk with ample storage, a corkboard for pinning ideas and mood boards, and a good-quality desk lamp can encourage her to explore her own creativity, whether it’s writing, drawing, or making Swiftie bracelets! 
- Taylor-Inspired Accessories
Look for accessories that reflect Taylor’s style. Think vintage-inspired mirrors, quirky jewellery stands for a collection of Taylor’s iconic letter bracelets, and cute storage solutions. Accessories in the shape of cats (a nod to Taylor’s beloved pets) can also add a playful element to the room. 
Creating a Taylor Swift-inspired bedroom is a wonderful way to bring your teenager’s interests to life, offering a space that is both stylish enough to go with the rest of your house, and is exciting for your teen. By integrating Taylor Swift’s unique aesthetic with cozy elements, personalized decor, and touches of musical inspiration, you can craft a bedroom that is perfect for relaxation and creativity.
