There are two kinds of people in this world: Swifties, and people with poor taste in music. The question is not how to tell these people apart (the latter have a depressingly empty look in their eyes), but rather, how to set yourself apart from other hardcore Swifties.
This year, Taylor Swift will grace Singapore with her glorious presence, bringing her 1989 World Tour to the Singapore Indoor Stadium on 7 and 8 November. Didn’t manage to get your hands on any tickets? Here are 10 other ways to prove you’re a hardcore fan of Taylor Swift – stand a chance to win a pair of concert tickets while you’re at it!
If even Taylor’s mum misheard the lyrics of her hit song Blank Space as “Starbucks lovers”, then I suppose you’re off the hook even if you did too. Top can be purchased both ironically and unironically – while stocks last.
Recommended for: 1) Taylor lovers and 2) actual Starbucks lovers

An item listed as “Badly Drawn Taylor Swift Poster” by the seller, “BadlyDrawnArt”, who caters to the extremely niche market of hardcore fans who would collect any poster of their idol. Are you one of them?
Recommended for: Swifties who appreciate art. It’s avant garde, duh.

Why pay an extra $5 for your manicurist to give you french manicure nail tips that you will inevitably ruin within minutes of leaving the nail salon, when you can pay $5.66 to get Taylor Swift nail decals?
Recommended for: Swifties who feed their nail envy by following #nailart on Instagram, while dreaming of being able to use that very hashtag someday.

Once you’ve pimped up those nails, accentuate them with this ring inspired by Taylor’s running mascara look in her music video of Blank Space. “Super cute”, the listing says!
Recommended for: If you like it you should’ve put a ring on it!

You can’t call yourself a Swiftie if you don’t own something this exclusive. These are the sneakers that Keds will be giving away to a lucky swiftie this year. This year, just in time for the 1989 World Tour, this could be you! Stay tuned to 98.7FM and camp on their Facebook page for more details of the contest. We hear it will be sometime in October!
Recommended for: Swifties who wear T-shirts, sneakers and stay on the bleachers.
Fret not, gentlemen – here’s one for you. Complete your look with this bow-tie featuring not one Taylor Swift, but nine; heck, wear it to sleep if you like!
Recommended for: The fashion-forward Swifties who want her quite literally close to their hearts.
If you know which ex-boyfriend each of Taylor’s lovelorn songs are about and spend your weekend nights alone in your room grooving to the playlist “TAYTAY MY QUEEN <13”, take it up a notch and do so in this tee that screams “I’m a Swiftie!!!!!!!”
Recommended for: Swifties who struggle with the woes of the sharpied lyrics on their shirts not surviving even one wash.

I mean, every second of listening to Taylor is a religious experience anyway. In addition, maybe if you wish hard enough to Saint Taylor, you will be just about a tenth as perfect as her.
Recommended for: Everyone. Everyone should acknowledge the glorious splendor of Tay Tay.

To say that great prosperity casts darkness over our minds is just sour grapes. Also, cheers to female emancipation! Countries with females on their currency include Argentina, Philippines, and – you guessed it – Taylor’s.
Recommended for: Currency investors. 1 British pound can get you 3 million Taylor Euros, but the value of Taylor Euros is skyrocketing, so don’t say I didn’t say, I didn’t warn ya~
Get it here.
Remember the one time when Taylor was dressed in a really dull get-up? Me neither. Her outfits are always spectacularly on point, even on dress-down sneaker days. Fortunately for the rest of humanity, Taylor Swift has paired up with Keds to produce a collection of sneakers characteristic of her quirky yet lovable character – think chic florals, cat prints, and more!
Win tickets to the 1989 World Tour when it’s completely sold out!
