Taylor Swift Era Emojis
Taylor Swift (Debut) emojis Taylor Swift’s self-titled debut album is full of country twang and teen angst. Fans often associate it with summer in the south, the colors green and teal, and general country aesthetics, like cowboy hats, cowboy boots, and horses. ????????????????????????☀️???? ????????????????????????⭐️????
Fearless emojis Fearless, Swift’s sophomore album and first Taylor’s Version rerecording, features themes of high school crushes and heartbreak, as well as fairytale love thanks to the song “Love Story.” It’s also associated with the color yellow because the color is prominent in the album cover. ????????????????????????????⚡️ ☀️✏️????????????????????????
Speak Now emojis Speak Now is Swift’s third album and a fan favorite among Swifties. Like her previous albums, many songs feature themes of love and heartbreak, but fans also get a glimpse of how Swift feels about life in the public eye. Some common associations are the color purple (because of the album cover), dragons and castles (featured in the songs “Long Live” and “Castles Crumbling”), and fireworks (from the song “Dear John”). ????????????????✨❄️???????? ????☔️????⚡️????????️????????
Red emojis Taylor Swift’s fourth album Red signifies the beginning of her transition from country to pop music and is mostly about heartbreak. The album is associated with all things red and autumn, and red scarves have become the unofficial symbol of the Red era thanks to the fan favorite ballad “All Too Well.” ❤️???????????????????????????? ????????????????❣️????????❤️????
1989 emojis The original release of 1989 in 2014 was Swift’s first official pop album. Much of the album was inspired by Swift’s move to New York City, so it includes themes of freedom, fun, and finding oneself. The original album was mostly associated with New York City, while Swift leaned into a beachy aesthetic for the 1989 (Taylor’s Version) release. Light blue represents both versions of the album. ????????️????????????????✈️???? ????☀️????????????????????????
Reputation emojis After disappearing from the public eye due to a feud with Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, Swift came back with a vengeance when she released reputation in 2017. The album addresses Swift’s relationship with her public image as well as her feelings about falling in love again despite the criticism. Snakes are the main symbol of the album, and it’s also associated with the color black. ????????????⛓️????????????????????️ ????????????????????????????????
Lover emojis Swift’s seventh album Lover is a stark contrast to the dark aesthetic of reputation. The album features many cheerful pop songs and has been described by Swift as a “love letter to love.” Bright, happy colors like pink and rainbow and romantic symbols like hearts and flowers are strong elements of the album’s aesthetic. ????????❤️???????????????????????????? ????????✨????????????????☀️
Folklore emojis Released in summer 2020 as a result and response to the Covid-19 pandemic, folklore was Swift’s first indie/folk album. Fans associate it with late summer/early fall, the color gray, and the cottagecore aesthetic, which features themes of nature and cozy living. Some other associations include mirrorballs (“mirrorball”), the moon and Saturn (“seven”), cardigans (“cardigan” and “betty”), and even skateboards (“betty”). Here are some folklore-inspired emojis: ⛅️????????????????♀️???????????? ????????️????????????????????????
Evermore emojis Referred to by Swift as folklore’s sister album, evermore was a surprise album dropped in late 2020. The songs on evermore were written at the same time as folklore, so the overall sound is similar, though evermore has more of a late-autumn/winter vibe. It’s mostly associated with the color brown and a dark, woodsy aesthetic. ????????????????????️????☕️???? ????????????????????????????️????????
Midnights emojis Midnights, Swift’s 10th album, is a concept album inspired by 13 sleepless nights throughout her life. The songs are inspired by things that kept her awake, like falling in love, experiencing heartbreak, and dealing with regrets and self-criticism. The album is often symbolized by clocks, nighttime, dark blue, and sparkles. ????????????????️????????⬛????✨ ????⭐️????????????????????????
The Tortured Poets Department emojis The Tortured Poets Department was released on April 19, 2024, and is currently Swift’s latest album. She began writing the album immediately after Midnights and continued writing as she set out on the first leg of the Eras Tour, as she ended a 6-year relationship, had a brief and very public fling, and eventually began a new relationship. She describes the album as “an anthology of new works that reflect events, opinions, and sentiments from a fleeting and fatalistic moment in time.” The album is associated with the color white, quills and fountain pens, and typewriters. ????️????????????️????✨???????? ????⬛⏳????️????????????️????????
The Eras Tour emojis Since March 2023, Taylor Swift has been performing on the Eras Tour, a 3-hour long concert featuring songs spanning her 11 albums and almost 20 year career. Swift and her fans consider each album a new “era,” and Swifties are often looking for new ways to represent each era with different emojis. Luckily, each era is associated with a different color and each album features songs with distinct imagery, making it easy to differentiate between them. ????????????❤️???????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????????????????️
Other Taylor Swift emojis
Heart hands (????) emoji In the early years of her career, especially during the Fearless era, Taylor Swift was known for doing her iconic heart hands gesture during her concerts and when interacting with fans. While Swift may not have invented the gesture, her usage likely played a big role in its popularity. Apple released the heart hands (????) emoji in 2021, and many Swifties associate it with Taylor Swift.
Cat emojis Taylor Swift is a proud cat lady, and her feline friends Meredith, Olivia, and Benjamin practically have a fandom of their own. Swift has been known to use various cat emojis in her social media posts, and many of her fans think of her whenever they see a cat emoji. ????????????⬛????????????????
Mirrorball (????) emoji Mirrorballs (or disco balls) became an unofficial symbol of Taylor Swift after the release of the song “mirrorball” on folklore. In the song, mirrorballs are a metaphor for fame and how celebrities must remain in the spotlight and entertain even when they feel broken or out of place. Many fans also relate to the feeling of having to put up a front for others, with some relating to the song so much that they get mirrorball tattoos.
Red lipstick (????) emoji While Taylor Swift’s style has changed over the years, one thing has remained the same—her love for red lipstick. Red lipstick is a signature makeup look for Swift, and she’s even mentioned it in several of her songs, like “Style,” “I Did Something Bad,” “Wildest Dreams,” and “The Moment I Knew.” While the red lipstick emoji (????) may not officially represent Taylor Swift, fans may associate it with her.
Music emojis Fans often admire Taylor Swift for her incredible songwriting, as well as her ability to play many instruments, including both the 6-string and 12-string guitar, piano, and banjo. Swifties may use various music emojis to represent Swift and her career. ????????????????????????????????
What is Taylor Swift’s favorite emoji?
Swift enjoys the thumbs up and wide-eyed surprise face emoji. In a 2014 interview with Buzzfeed, Taylor Swift revealed that she regularly texted the thumbs up (????) and the wide-eyed surprised face (????) emojis to her friends. It’s possible her favorite emojis have changed since then, but she has not commented more recently. In the same interview, Swift said she also enjoyed using the Santa Claus (????)emoji because “he’s always watching.”
She often posts strings of 13 emojis as a nod to her favorite number. As many Swifties know, Taylor Swift’s lucky number is 13, and she often incorporates it into her music videos, performances, and social media posts as an easter egg. This is typically a way to show appreciation for her fans’ continued support. For example, Swift once posted 13 heart-eyed cat emojis (????) when Spotify posted an image of their Lover billboard in Times Square.
