AFan’s Delight: A Kansas City Chiefs supporter recently had an extraordinary experience when she discovered that her beloved childhood varsity jacket had been worn by none other than pop star Taylor Swift.
A TikTok user named @courttokslol, or Court, recounted the surprising tale of how her family had sold this unique jacket on eBay in August. Just a few months later, they spotted Swift wearing it during a Chiefs game on November 4, while cheering on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
Court, an avid Swiftie, initially thought little of it when she first glimpsed images of Swift in a vintage Chiefs jacket. However, a closer look revealed something that truly amazed her.
“We sold it this past August, so it’s cool to see how much effort goes into planning her outfits,” Court shared on TikTok.
“It was definitely a rare find… I think ours was the only one on eBay at that time.”
The jacket’s unique attributes not only attracted Swift’s stylist but also caught Court’s attention, as she recognized specific details in the fabric from photos of Swift at the game.
After selling it to a buyer based in California, she confirmed it was indeed her former jacket when she noticed the same unique fold captured in pictures of Swift.
Swift styled the Chiefs bomber jacket with loose denim Agolde shorts, a black top, a Dior saddle bag, and thigh-high Christian Louboutin boots, transforming the retro piece into a trendy fashion statement.
Regarding the sale,
Court eagerly turned to TikTok to respond to inquiries from curious fans about the sale, detailing her reasons for letting it go.
She explained that the jacket no longer fit her, and with a move on the horizon, selling it on eBay felt like the best option.
Although she sold it for $169, she humorously remarked, “I’ve been told I should have charged more, but at the time, we really didn’t know who would end up with it.”
Now, Court and her family watch their eBay listings more attentively. “We’ve got a few other Chiefs items up for sale, and you can bet we’ll be on the lookout for Taylor’s stylist’s name every time we sell one!” Court expressed to PEOPLE, sharing her enthusiasm about the unexpected connection.
Dreams of a Swiftie
In her original TikTok, Court, wearing Swift merchandise, conveyed her overwhelming disbelief upon realizing that Swift was wearing what seemed to be the exact jacket her family had sold.
While the buyer’s name wasn’t Taylor Swift, further investigation revealed it was indeed purchased by Swift’s stylist, implying that the jacket was likely meant for the star herself.
“It’s surreal to think they’re bringing back vintage pieces,” Court commented. As a loyal Chiefs fan and devoted Swiftie, witnessing her jacket featured in Swift’s iconic game day ensemble is a moment she will cherish forever.
