To say I'm a Taylor Swift fan might be putting it mildly: her tunes have helped me through plenty of heartbreaks, I'm still kinda POed at Katy Perry, and I consider the night my nosebleed concert seats were upgraded — for free! — to the stage's pit area one of the best times of my life. But another thing I admire about this leader of the fiercest girl group ever? Her ability to pull off a plethora of different styles, from cutout jumpsuits to feminine day dresses.

So when I realized that my own wardrobe was filled with similar pieces, I put myself to the test. Would I be able to re-create a few of Ms. Swift's best looks on my own 5'0" body then rock them for a week? Well, I tried my best and later snapped some photos in Taylor's TriBeCa 'hood in New York for the full effect. Keep reading to see how I channeled this star, then shop the pieces you'll need to do the same.

I started out with one of Taylor's signature looks: a striped shirt and a pair of black shorts. While the revealing bottoms left my legs feeling a little bare, this simple outfit is one I'd wear on the weekend or even in a pinch.

Taylor loves this simple blue skirt — she's worn it in public at least twice — and the best part? It's only $49 from Urban Outfitters! Paired with a white crop top and cream heels, this outfit would easily work for both day and night, and I felt superfeminine while rocking it.

Taylor was a huge fan of thigh-high styles last year, and knowing that, I had to try one of those looks. Since I'd snagged her Aldo bag for myself months ago, I went with this preppy number, which reminded me of a schoolgirl all grown up.

Although I was without my girl gang full of models, I still felt pretty fierce in this breezy Summer ensemble. The collared shirt and floral skirt combo is a classic that never really goes out of style.

If there was ever an outfit that screamed Taylor Swift, it would be a black pair of overalls and a white crop top — because that's exactly what happened when I stepped out wearing them. A random guy on the street jokingly yelled her name at me, which made me blush — and also beam with pride. It's a safe bet I'll be rewearing this one sometime in the near future.
