One more after the jump!

She is just trying a little bit too hard to be cool…
This girl who was in How the Grinch Stole Christmas-such an innocent movie, is now a hooker looking
isn’t she 16? WTH?
no, she is cool
She looks like a hooker. Okay, the fact is that anyone who wears garters out in the open like this will look like a hooker.
Seriously? Stop with this over the top edgy thing. It’s getting old.
We all made horrible personal style choices when we were 16.
haha she has very good body as long as she looks good she can wear everything she wants and NO she dosn’t look like a hooker that is called personal stile!!!……..
Yes, she looks like a hooker.
she’s the kind of person that doesn’t even need a tramp stamp.
wow. seriously, what is she, like, 14?
that’s just too much. she’s trying too hard.
its all part of the look she’s going for. if she feels comfortable dressing like this all the time then so be it.
Meh. But she’s still sixteen, you know? I know she’s going for a certain look, but there are ways of achieving this look with out looking cheap and somewhat trashy. I don’t know. I just think that as a public figure, she has an obligation of sorts not to look like a hooker, and garters and a barely there skirt are hookeresque. God knows I’m not a prude. I just think that dressing so that forty year old men who still live with their mothers can jack off to your picture is gross and not sexy at all. Someone, a parent, a friend, someone should pull her aside and explain to her that the Lindsey Lohan/Brittany Spears look and lifestyle is not to something to which a beautiful, talented sixteen year old girl should aspire.
i actually think she looks hot. she can wear what she wants and everyone can have an opinion but its her personal style and people shud get over the fact she likes to dress that way. and no she is 16 not 14
i agree. and the fact that no one has the guts to wear this. i mean look at rihanna and lady gaga. i think she looks cute and she can pull it off
oh 16 is much better! seriously, would you be ok with your 16 year old daughter wearing this?? because there’s no way i would
As long as Taylor is comfortabel in what she wears and isn’t being forced to weat that (which she isn’t) well thats all that matters. and she OWNS that outfit. im so fed up of people hatin on her.
* Wear that – sorry spelling mistake
Okay comfortable is one thing but the image you portray to the rest of the world is kind of important too. The “I don’t care what people think of me” thing is kind of lame and everyone knows, even if they hate to admit it, that the impression you give off to others really does matter. End of story.
And no way in hell would I ever be caught dead wearing garters in the open. I like Taylor’s style but garters are just stupid. As if they would make an outfit more comfortable…
She looks cheap. And nasty. And absolutely tasteless. Don’t care if she’s 14, 16 or 30. It’s still tasteless.
completely agree with the cheap and tasteless comments.
its inappropriate no matter what age
I completely agree! Age has nothing to do with it, this is a classless outfit.
here’s the thing, I understand a 16 year old wanting to experiment and wear something crazy. Heck when I was 16 I would have gone to school dressed as Britney Spears every day.
However, it’s the adults around her (specifically her parents or anyone else she looks up to) who should be telling her this isn’t acceptable. Sure your teenage years are a time to find yourself and make bad choices… but honestly she looks like a prostitute here. It’s not just about HER it’s about the message shes’ sending to men (I’m easy) and the young girls who look up to her (It’s cool to dress like a slut). I just can’t believe someone would allow their child (and YES 16 is a child!) to walk out of the house dressed like this… it literally blows my mind.
The garters are cheap and nasty, no matter your age. And so are the hair extensions.
agreed even though I like the hair extensions she looks like a trashy hooker smh wats up with all these young stars i.e. Miley Cyrus, Ali Lohan and now her just because your a star and your in the limelight which causes you to grow up fast doesn’t give you the right to start acting like an adult at a young age your only 16. Even girls who are around her age and are acting a little too grown up have common sense and are wearing this on Halloween and to “parties” not on the street
I agree, I hate it when people are like she’s 16 and wah wah wah. Even if she was 23, she shouldn’t be dressing like this out in public. However, I mean, it’s no longer high heels a little girl wants to wear, oh no, it’s garters!
I COMPLETELY agree, Uma. Cheap and tasteless, no other way to put it.
For me this outfit would be a bit to over the top to wear it on the street but gosh I really want her figure.
Would kill for those skinny legs .
Lohanesc
exactly.
haven’t they been spotted out together?
i think she looks great
She nuts. As someone who lives in NYC, it has been extremely windy and around 30 – 40 degrees here.
Why go outside half-dressed?
Everyone see that you have nice legs…..but come on girl you are 16 for Godness
No class, no taste.
She’s 16 people, seriously, this is ridiculous.
You can admire her fashion choices and her gutsy attitude but at the end of the day, it’s wrong for a 16 year old year to be dressing like a prostitute, and worse for people to accept this. She’s not an adult even though she may not dress like one.
Is that supposed to be sexy?
She’s only 16, for god’s sake. Copying hookers’ style if hookers have any is soooo stupid. I know she’s a teenager and all, and that maybe she didn’t find her own style yet but it still looks stupid and tasteless. Can’t help it.
The whole outfit is cute, except for those damn stockings! I usually think well, she rocks it, go for it, and she usually looks great, but I can’t help thinking this would be better with black tights! I like the short skirt with long, looser top and boyfriend shirt thing, and she has stunning legs. I mean, I’m a great advocate of if you’ve got it flaunt it (within reason!) but I probably wouldn’t flaunt it with stockings and suspenders myself. I prefer wearing them under demure dresses, where nobody sees but you know you’re wearing them. A far sexier way to do it, no?
it actually looks kinda cool, but not for a young girl walking down the street! maybe in like a runway show or something.. :/
yeah… she looks like a five dollar street walker. apparently the girl has no modesty whatsoever.
Just noticed this: she either has a very small head or a very large neck. They don’t look proportioned to me. At least not in these photos.
Or maybe it’s the two glasses of wine I’ve just consumed.
Omg you’re right her head is kind of small (or neck is kind of big)
I never noticed that before
I think it’s kind of tacky to be wearing garters in public no matter who you are (prostitute or not) or what your age is.
I think she’s at the stage in her life where it’s really important for her to be sexy, but the thing is that she IS sexy. She doesn’t need to wear garters. She could be wearing jeans and she’d still be sexy. She just needs a little more confidence in herself. Hopefully that will come as she grows up and becomes more mature.
Taylor has a nice body and great legs, but that doesn’t mean I want to see that close to her vajin.
Also, garters are too inappropriate to wear visibly for anyone, whether you’re 16, 26, or 56. I don’t care. I don’t want to see your garters unless you’re a) performing in a Burlesque style show (musical or striptease) or b) you’re modeling lingerie.
Oy.
There are not enough sad faces in the world for this outfit.
reminds me of a Lindsay Lohan wannabe
is she retarded or what?
OK. All the people saying she’s too young to wear this – you’ll always say this until she is then “too old” to wear it. I think everyone can settle with the fact that this is just a classless outfit.
Everything that can be said about the outfit has been said. So I’d just like to say that I’m reeaaally jealous of her hair. It’s absolutely perfect.
She’s 16 going on 17—give the kid a beak!. She needs leeway to find her own style and develop into her own person–this is, as I’m pretty sure the same with me when I was 16, a passing phase. She’ll eventually get sick of dressing like this sooner or later, and go on to another crazy fad. Teenagers style and attitudes, in general, fickle. Think of them of as work in progress.
Leave the worry to her Mother to fret over how she dresses.
actually she just turned 16 a few months ago
I LOVE GARTERS!!!!!
I love her outfit, plus she is just showing legs other girls go around showing their nipples and everyone say it’s sexy, she doesn’t look classy but she’s just a teenager she can wear whatever she wants.
If she wears that when she’s 45 than we’ll talk about hooker.
i find it a bit strange that since shes like 16 the media dont make much of a fuss over her. miley is constantly being scrutinized about her tattoo, her outfits etc… or at least they have been in australia.
i know miley has more fame than taylor… but yeah… just a thought…
i think she’s trying a bit too hard…
It doesn’t matter how skinny you are. It doesn’t matter if you’re 12, 16, 30 or 100. The outfit is wrong.
Why would anyone want to look like a hooker
Gawd, the conservativeness in this discussion in astounding.
music singers – glam outfits
young people – rebelling against the norm
fashion icons – taking things and using them in a novel way (like garters, for casual outfits)
What do you expect, a victorian outfit? A Disney princess? A wholesome Hallmark little teenager devoid of the hormonal shitstorm, the need for identity and the budding sexual persona that they go through?
She may be a poser, and not the first to wear those things, but sheesh you’d think people never heard of 70s glam rock, 80s punk, and 90s grunge, to name a bunch of currents of music AND style that rebelled against the norm.
Wearing stuff that’s normally considered trashy is the POINT.
That outfit, heck, I’d consider it a shout back for the past musical icons, it’s been done before, many times. It’s not shocking at all. It’s taking something that’s suppose to be worn in a certain setting, and wearing it casually.
Remember when mini skirts came about? People said the same things. I remember in the 90s, a friend of mine was into grunge, and wore the aforementioned t shirt over long shirt, and cheapo 2nd hand clothes. People called trashy and ugly, and innapropriate. Misssing the point that you shouldn’t judge people by what they wear.
Um, she is 16. If taylor were 36, then i wouldn’t care.
going out pantless – ok
going out with garters – no way!
I agree with the majority – classless! And I’m 17, nearly her age, and I would NOT go out wearing that. All the moreso if I’m famous! I bet she’s had offers from Playboy already, or will do soon!!
And I also disagree with the ‘good legs’ comment – I like shapely legs, they look as if they have no tone or anything, imo.
‘Offers for Playboy”?…she’ only 16!!!. Playboy’s pretty corrupt, yeah sure, but I’m sure they wouldn’t be hounding a 16 year old ‘Scenester” to bare all as a center fold. That would be pretty sick.
Maybe when her 18th birthday rolls around, and she adds a much needed 15 pounds to her malnourished figure, they’ll come calling. As of now, she’s still a prostitot in training.
So classy.
ummm bit weird but who cares? I wouldn’t wore that, but it’s her choice and we all make mistakes
)
Women should be able to wear whatever they like whenever they like but the unfortunate truth is that some men will percieve this as a signal that the female in question wants to invite sexual attention. There are some men that don’t even need this much of an excuse. I think she must be very naive for her age not to realise what wandering around the street in your underwear might result in.
So some people say “she can wear whatever she wants etc.,” but she is STILL a child. Why ruin your “reputation” before you really make it out there (grow up)? Even if its “just a phase” people-speaking to everyone in general- (future employers, teachers, neighbors) will see this. It will affect you for the rest of your life because it shapes who you are. Now until she’s actually grown (18) her parents still have jurisdiction over what she wears etc., seeing that this is how she dresses, then they
A) must not care
B) think its okay
C) going with HER flow
D) are void
i blame the parents.
pfffiu Taylor … I used to like her a lot, especially her music, but now she’s soo boring, and yes trying too hard too … The more I see her, the more I’m getting fed up with her and her pseudo cool attitude. But how can she assume wearing such … things ? it’s damn sexy and all but … not in that context god ! she’s just ridiculous!!
Everyone has the right to wear crazy clothes at 16. I remember once I went to school dressed like the singer of Killers….hahahaha.
Soon I ll have to work in an office and I m glad I had my rebel revolt at the right time
My parents would have grounded me for even sketching a picture of this outfit.
I love reading all these posts. Everyone is slamming on Taylor before her “career” has even started!
Taylor, honey, listen to me:
1) Your style is getting really old, move on.
2) You are 16, not 36!
3) Do you even have parents?
4) You are going to loose fans ( I never even knew you had some in the first place) VERY QUICKLY.
Just grow up. You’re so full of yourself.
She needs to take a leaf out of Blair Waldorfs book, for fashion advice.
She’s really pretty, i seriously don’t know what she’s aiming for? the way she dresses seems to say that she’s just come from a heroine orgy, she could do a lot better…
My guess is if she keeps on doing this by the age of 25 she’ll look like an old hooker…
sorry taylor
I love her, she’s so great!
And don’t think she’s trying too hard, it’s just her style and i really love that!
I’d go for that look if she was doing something interesting with it (as it is the truck pitstop rocker chic jailbait thing just looks like lacked the imagination – or wardrobe – to do something else) and her skirt or dress or shorts or whatever was longer.
I mean, if she put a hat on it, and gained two years she might get away with making it a Caberet homage. As it is, no – just no.
Incidentally she’s wearing stockings and suspenders. I thought a garter was the band you wear around your leg under your wedding dress.
Looking fabulous!
She goes for a certain look and totally achieves it. The whole garter thing makes her long legs look even more fabulous. She gets away with it.
*barf*
She looks great. If I looked that good when I was 16 I would have worn that too. I think that it is the people who call her trashy and skanky who are ‘classless’.
All I know is that her weave looks like blond dog poop.
She’s pretty, but the garter don’t look good to her. Maybe its her age or its just that i am not into such kind of things. I don’t really mind if she wears those things as long as she can still carry herself and have the guts of wearing those. Maybe it does look nice for her and that’s her style, so be it.
