If there’s anyone who has the power to popularize a fashion item or a piece of jewelry, it’s Taylor Swift.
Last week at the Grammys the pop star, who just finished her Eras tour in December after running around the world performing almost her entire discography, showed us how to put on a show indeed.
She donned a stunning outfit
Swift didn’t just grace the world with a red Vivienne Westwood dress and stiletto sandals, she also wore a gorgeous thigh chain that has been all the rage since her red carpet look.
The chain was wrapped around her upper thigh with a ‘T’ charm dangling at the front.
People started noticing the charm
The ‘T’ charm that sat on the singer’s thigh certainly turned heads, with some speculating that the ‘T’ stood for Travis – as in Travis Kelce, Swift’s footballer boyfriend.
Others thought it was as simple as a reference to her own name, Taylor.
The accessory is custom made
Swift coupled her red Vivienne Westwood dress with ruby jewelry by Lorraine Schwartz, with the flirty thigh chain and the initial ‘T’ surely turning people’s heads towards her.
We’ve gathered a few dupes
The rumors are true… a custom Lorraine Schwartz piece is a little out of reach for us. But don’t fret, we’ve instead scoured the internet for a few dupes that are sure to add a little pizzazz to any short outfit, and you’ll be elevating your dresses and skirts in no time!
You’ve got a few options

Here are some thigh chains that are less likely to break the bank than a custom Lorraine Schwartz piece.
If you’re looking for a silver chain to accessorize your dresses and skirts, this one on Amazon is for sure the way to go, it even has a little heart on it!
If you’re looking for initials

Perhaps you’re looking to copy Taylor’s exact look. So if you’re feeling like a plain chain won’t cut it and initials are exactly the thing you’re looking for, we’ve found one that can be customized on Amazon.
You can even get one with pearls

If you’re a pearls person – and let’s be honest, who isn’t – you can get this gold thigh chain with a layer of pearls in the middle.
I’d even pair this with a pearl necklace and pearl earrings to complete the look, it would be stunning!
You can make more of a statement

Finally, and this one is my personal favorite, if you’re feeling like making a bigger statement with this jewelry piece, you can buy this scarlet butterfly thigh chain on Etsy.?Pssst.. this seller has other butterfly thigh chains too…
It’s a little more expensive than the other ones, but you have to admit it looks incredibly cool. Heck, this one would have even matched Taylor’s outfit perfectly!
We’ve officially got a new trend
Regardless of whether the ‘T’ initial on the Guilty Sin singer’s thigh is a nod to her boyfriend or a moment of pure self-love, I think it’s safe to say we’ve officially got a trend on our hands.
With it being officially the month of love, Valentine’s day is coming up, and I’m willing to bet this flirty moment will pull any date outfit together like magic!
