Taylor Swift was a guest on Saturday Night Live this weekend, performing not one but two songs from her new album Reputation. And naturally, with it being Taylor, there had to be an element of glam involved on stage. This time, it was a blingy jewel-encrusted mic.

Tay kicked off with a performance of Ready For It? , the second single from her album, where she sang into the snazzy snake mic while showing off her slick choreography.

Later on in the show, the 27-year-old stripped it all back for a more low-key version of her romantic track Call It What You Want.

This was Taylor's first appearance on SNL since 2009 and marked the second time she has performed tracks from Reputation on television. We're hoping for many more to come!

This striped minidress was another summer style win for the singer.

Pretty blue floral dress, towering nude heels and retro-glam hair; Taylor's lady-like look is spot-on - although, we'd have changed up the heels for a cute brogue.
Rex Features
We want Taylor's printed playsuit - and the good news is, it's Topshop!

Tay-Tay stopped this outfit from being a bit of a dud by adding a cute gingham bow to her hair. Well-played, Swift.

Way to make an entrance, Tay. Ms. Swift blew the competition out of the water at the annual Victoria's Secret show in November 2013, with this Union Jack inspired get-up.

Since the debut of her album RED earlier in the year, Taylor was working the hue wherever she could - lips, heels and super-short shorts... But the singer turned heads on the CMAs red carpet in a sweeping Elie Saab gown and Jimmy Choos, all in red - natch.
Rex Features
Over-sized is far from over - Taylor made a statement with this off-duty mannish white shirt, worn with a maroon hat and forest green Christian Louboutin bag look back in the autumn of 2013.

Rex Features
Grecian-style, long gowns were once a Taylor Swift staple on the red carpet. But our favourite? This white Emilio Pucci dress, which signalled a less princess-y direction for the star.
Walter Chin
OK, so maybe we're a bit biased but we think this beatnik-inspired look for Taylor's GLAMOUR cover shoot in 2013 actually really suited the pretty singer. From the flat cap to the 1960s-style eyeliner, this ticks all the boxes.
Wenn
Taylor's proved that she also has impeccable taste where her swimwear is concerned too and we love the high-waisted bikinis and pretty swimsuits she favours for her holidays and a spot of paddle-boarding.

We're so used to seeing Taylor in classic-vintage style dresses, so when she stepped out in this Herve Leger number in July 2013, we couldn't quite believe our eyes!

Rex Features
And back to the retro. This halter number paired with cat-eye shades is Hollywood starlet style at its best.
Rex Features
Taylor and Harry Styles may have only been a flash in the pan, but their dating period in 2012 saw Swift step out in a series of cute wintry looks - schoolgirl satchels, cords and slouchy beanies feature heavily.
Rex Features
Before Harry turned up though, short and sequinned swiftly became Taylor's go-to look. This Zuhair Murad mini dress paired with Jimmy Choo heels is uber glam for the 2012 American Music Awards.
Rex Features
Ahead of the release of her album, RED, Taylor was massively into the hue on the red carpet but this time opted for a more vintage-inspired shape.

With its high neck and long length, this Zuhair Murad Couture dress at the 2012 Grammys was a show-stopper.

Way back when in 2011, T-Swizzle's hair was still curly but a style change was on the horizon if this adorable panda print jumper was anything to go by...
Rex Features
Mustard and navy blue (with a pop of cobalt) aren't the most obvious colour pairing, but Taylor showed that they're actually the perfect partners. Extra style points for teaming a heavy cable knit with a flippy mustard yellow pleated skirt - we do love a texture mash-up.
Rex Features
At the 2010 American Music Awards, Tay-Tay's working poker straight locks, a blunt heavy fringe, thick kohl-lined eyes and something short, sassy and sequinned.

Rex Features
In early 2010, Tay showed off her enviable pins to devastating effect in a pair of skinny blue jeans and dark tan riding boots, the singer topped off her off-duty look with a long, smock-style top. However, something tells us this is very much a look of yesteryear for Taylor now.
Rex Features
After a string of high-profile and oh-so-glamorous turns on the red carpet, Taylor proved she could still casual with aplomb thanks to this very popular with the A-List Chanel-inspired oversized knit, red Ray-Bans and jeans.
Rex Features
Well, hello there 20s icon. This modern-day day on the 20s look with finger curled loose-hair and headband complete with an oversized tee layered over a frilly skirt and heels proved that Taylor was more than the sum of her show-stopping red carpet numbers.
Rex Features
And we're back to short, sparkly and show-stopping again.

Owning the Grammy Awards red carpet in 2009, Taylor donned this unusual navy blue (you guessed it...) sequinned number and looked utterly fabulous in the process.

Short, sharp and chic, Taylor pulled off winter whites beautifully on the red carpet in 2009.

But it was back to the princess gowns for a turn on the CMAs red carpet.
Rex Features
The night of that incident with Kanye West at the Video Music Awards in 2009, Taylor opted for this directional Grecian-inspired gown - not that the dress was the talk of the night, in the end. Anyway, Imma let you finish...

Rex Features
A killer staple summer sundress if ever we saw one as she left a London hotel in 2008. However, the white sunglasses now feel a tad dated.
Rex Features
Nodding to her country roots with those slightly Western-inspired boots, Taylor's school uniform outfit is as cute as a button.
Rex Features
Aaah, a classic wardrobe manoeuvre of 2009 - put a waist belt over anything.

Taylor's height and slender frame means she can pull off even the most diaphanous of creations on the red carpet and this dramatic asymmetric gown looks absolutely stunning on her, as a result.

Rex Features
In 2009, Taylor took this cute prom dress to the next level with a pair of statement shoes.
Rex Features
For the 2009 BRIT Awards in London, Taylor once again reverted to her tried and tested winning short and sequinned formula.

And again on another red carpet! Whilst the dresses are gorgeous, they do feel a tad ageing on the young popstar.

Looking cute as a button at the tender age of 16, Taylor's red carpet look was decidedly more relaxed at the start of her career.
