Trendspotting Thursday: Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift has had a great year in 2008, being the biggest selling artist of 2008 in America with combined sales of more than four million albums, for her self-title album as well as her album Fearless, according to Nielsen Soundscan.
2009 has brought in bigger and better things for her, recently winning Album Of The Year, at the Academy if Country Music (ACM) Awards as well as the ACM’s Crystal Milestone Awards to recognize that she’s sold more albums than any other artist this year and has helped country music attract a younger audience. Not only did she win the top honors during the ACM awards, she wins top honors for her style and fashion sense as well.
This 19-year old has become fast recognized as being in the Top Best Dressed lists across the web as well as fashion magazines.
On her most recent trip to the red carpet, at the 44th Annual Academy of Country Music awards, Taylor Swift wowed everyone in this beautiful one shoulder red Angel Sanchez gown with Neil Lane jewelry and VBH clutch. She was breathtakingly flawless.

Taking a look back to more recent times this year, Taylor Swift has wowed us with her choice of style and always comes out looking ever graceful and classy and very age-appropriate. Something that her friend, Miley Cyrus can learn a thing or two from.

I think Taylor Swift has managed to and will continue to bedazzle us with her talent, star quality, country charm and impeccable style… She definitely deserves to be where she is right now and more than deserves to be on my Trendspotting Thursday spot!
