Taylor Swift's Super Bowl Bag With a Tribute to Travis Kelce Was a Gift From Another A-List Athlete
If there’s one thing Taylor Swift fans know about the superstar, it’s that she’s not afraid to take a theme seriously. After all, what she wears is often a clue about her next career move. While attending the Kansas City Chiefs games in support of her boyfriend Travis Kelce, for example, the “Lover” singer has donned a collection of red Chiefs-inspired clothing as well as subtle tributes to Kelce’s name and his jersey number 87.
At the Super Bowl yesterday in Las Vegas, Swift kept the red looks going as she was spotted holding a sparkling Football Clutch from Judith Leiber. The bedazzled red clutch, which retails for $4,495.00, was also a custom piece with the number 87 written on it.
