You may have noticed something different about Taylor Swift.
It began early this year, at the Grammys, when she unveiled a new, shorter hairstyle. Many people joked about how similar it looked to Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour's iconic bob, not knowing just how much influence Wintour had on Swift's evolving look.

The new 'do was a point of conversation, but it wasn't too drastic. Just a more mature take on Swift's typically preppy style.
Then, Coachella happened:

The blonde bob was now platinum, and suddenly the crowd went wild. So wild, that no one realized the jacket was a hint for beau Calvin Harris's new song with Rihanna. Swift, so long a champion of the dirty blonde girls of the world, was now making her look even edgier.
Was it just for Coachella? Was it for her Vogue photo shoot only? It kind of felt like a stunt hairdo, or maybe it could even be a wig, but the past few weeks have proven that the hair—and the edgier style that such a hairdo inevitably brings along with it—is staying.
Here are a few of her most recent street style looks:

As you can see, T-Swizzle has gone from modern day Jackie Kennedy to a less annoying Jenny Humphrey, and it's taken a bit of getting used to. I still can't decide what I think about her edgy makeover.
On the one hand, I'm excited that Taylor is experimenting with her style and trying out new things. the 20s are the time to test out different looks and see what makes you feel comfortable and confident. I'm all for outfit experimentation, and Swift has taken this part of her 20s very seriously.
On the other, I really enjoyed her preppy style. It felt like a breath of fresh air set against the Jenners and Hadids of the world, all of whom are pushing the same overdone style, and now Taylor is adopting more and more of these trends. From choker necklaces to sultry dresses, it feels like she's becoming part of a crowd instead of standing out on her own. She's been wearing Vetements, for goodness sake!
Basically, if Taylor Swift is just testing out new styles and having fun, I'm all for it. I just don't want to see her lose her individual sense of style to the trends of Instagram.

| Chanel Cruise 2017 Lookbook |
But fear not, because the fashion crowd never sleeps, and another huge event has given me something to talk about! Karl Lagerfeld always takes his cruise collections to a far-off locale, and for the 2017 collection it was off to Cuba, which, as you hopefully know, only recently became accessible to Americans for the first time since the 60s. The country is ripe with incredible culture, and it's about time everyone gets to celebrate.
And what a celebration it was! Never one to do something half way, Lagerfeld had guests chauffeured to Havana's Paseo de Prado in candy-colored convertibles and staged a plein air parade through the streets, with a Cuban band leading the finale procession.
Just look at how fun the show was:
As for the fashion, it was classic Cuba meets Coco. Most of what I know about Cuban fashion comes from Pitbull, but Karl went for a more classic look that combined past and present. The hats, vibrant colors, and flouncy skirts were perfect Havana style, but Lagerfeld mixed them with the staples of Chanel style (black and white suiting, shift dresses, tweed, etc.)
The most interesting look of the collection? A vibrant mint tweed skirt suit with a vintage tee reading "Viva Coco Libre!" Not even Chanel can escape the logo tee fad, but at least they're doing it up in style.
Chanel has released a lookbook with some of the chic outfits from the show. Here are my favorites! You can also check out the rest of the collection here.
