Taylor Swift brought a chicly sustainable take to the staple platform boot while celebrating her birthday this year.

The award-winning musician, who turns 34 today, stepped out with friends — including Selena Gomez, Miles Teller and Keleigh Sperry — for dinner at Zero Bond in New York City to commemorate the occasion. Swift’s birthday attire featured a pair of Stella McCartney‘s Skyla boots — a $679 (previously $970) style with stretchy black Alter Mat vegan leather uppers and angled square toes.

Thick, textured platform soles with chunky block heels gave the pair a sharp height boost. For a gleaming finish, each toe was topped with shiny gold and silver-toned metal chain accents — a signature of McCartney’s, modeled after her signature Falabella handbag line’s chain straps.

Swift chose to elevate her chain-topped boots with updated takes on staple winter pieces, bringing the whimsical set a chic allure. The Golden Globe-nominated musician’s style was boosted with patterned black tights and a flounce-sleeved top, layered beneath a double-breasted tan leather trench coat.

The singer’s attire was effortlessly complete with a gold choker, layered stud earrings and thin rings, as well as Versace’s black leather Mini Greca bag — a $1,525 shoulder style with a half-moon shape, accented with gleaming gold hardware.

Swift’s boots embraced the rise of the platform heel — albeit in a sustainable fashion, thanks to McCartney — with the staple black boot. The shoe, often regarded as a wardrobe classic, features smooth uppers with ankle-high shafts and thick soles. Pairs in leather, suede and vegan alternatives are regularly released throughout the year — though their fuller coverage makes them a top choice during the winter months.
