so i had a @taylorswift themed birthday party last night to celebrate turning 22 🎉

i themed the rooms in my house based off a few of taylor’s different albums to essentially create a taylor swift wonderland.

i had loft ‘89 which essentially featured food and a cute photo booth (complete with a taylor swift cut out)

there was the big rep bar which is pretty self explanatory...DRINKS 🥂

the lover lounge had taylor swift polaroids hanging from the walls, pink cushions, love heart confetti scattered around and love heart candy

and the folklore forest featured cute fairy lights, candles and blankets outside

i feel so incredibly lucky to have such amazing friends that were so on board to live out my crazy idea of having a taylor swift themed party, and they showed up in sparkly costumes and taylor t-shirts. we played “guess the song” and “finish the lyric” and i love how enthusiastic everyone was!

it was such an amazing night...I DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT I’M FEELING 22 🎉🎉🎉 @taylorswift @taylornation

folklore inspired tattoo 🌲🌲 this year, i suffered deeply with severe anxiety. my relationships were strained, i was in a constant state of panic and i struggled to leave my house. i couldn’t even listen to taylor’s old music because it brought up memories of happier and better times and served as a painful reminder of what i could no longer feel or achieve. the anxiety eventually morphed into depression and after months and months of trying to heal myself without medication, i accepted that i needed more help. my amazing psychologist and doctor helped me become comfortable with the idea of taking medication and the support of my boyfriend, family and friends was truly immense. about a week into starting my medication, just as i was starting to feel a slight grasp on the person i used to be before anxiety took over, folklore was released and i felt true happiness for the first time since january. this tattoo represents the strength i uncovered to overcome my anxiety and the way taylor showed up at the perfect moment to give me my first happy memory all year. there are two pine trees because my favourite song is track two, cardigan. i feel so insanely lucky to have grown up with taylor in my life and to have her music as a hand to hold when things are tough so it only felt right that she inspired my first ever tattoo 💕💕 @taylorswift

i’ve been loving you for quite some time, time, time @taylorswift 💗💗💗💗💗

I COULDN’T BE MORE PROUD OF YOU TAYLOR 💗 thank you for sharing your music with the world! your music has been the soundtrack to my life since i was 11 years old and at times, those songs have felt like my only friend. i love you so much and i will ALWAYS show up for you 💕

i’m still so in awe of taylor’s article, we really are so lucky to be alive at the same time as @taylorswift

i can’t even put into words how joyous i am that taylor has found a way to live where she can relish in her private life and remove herself from outside opinions like i freaking love that for her 💗💗💗💗💗 @taylorswift

THAT WAS THE BEST ARTICLE I HAVE EVER READ 💗 i am so endlessly proud of you @taylorswift you are brave and gracious and intelligent and just all of the good things! i love you with my whole heart and soul, thank you for being you
