in conclusion, enchanted is about emma stone
just remembering how karlie posted this on october 26, 2014, the eve of 1989's midnight release, kind of implying that she was out of the country (but she was actually snapped by a fan in nyc with taylor)
but the fact that she chose this particular picture... with (her?) hands making our girl's signature heart sign which she became so known for that it's practically unofficially copyrighted by the Taylor Swift™ brand....
Things I can’t wait for:
So... umm... is this not crazy that Taylor played a show in Paris on March 6, 2013.

KK: March 6, 2016: "Love Locked Down"
TS: March 6, 2016: Locket—"3.6.15 one year down."
Karlie is in was in Paris every 1st week in March up until Coronavirus happened.
She always stopped by The Seine bridge too.

March 4th is one of the Big Sur-versary days too.
Also, if you remember The City of Lover murul. It also had the dice that showed March 6th.
No idea what it all means... if anything at all. I just find it all ironic how Paris links up so perfectly for these two.
interesting 🤔
A fiercely competitive board and card game player? Mhmm.. that tracks.
Why would this even be her answer if it wasn’t coded? 😂
taylor swift is famous for the easter eggs, hidden codes, and secret symbology she leaves for fans, giving them clues as to who her songs are about (or supposed to be about), when new music or content is coming, and other insights into her life and what her art represents.
she posted red shoes on her 22nd birthday in 2011 as a clue to let people know the title of her next album - red:
she posted a picture of herself playing scrabble in the fall of 2018 as a clue that the count down to her new single would start on national scrabble day six months later:
so this brings us to the lover era
taylor hid so many clues in this era that she was not straight and we know taylor hides clues because of examples like the ones i provided. she’s maniacal and unhinged but it is 100% what she does.
the first big thing is she released her single me! on LESBIAN VISIBILITY DAY:
i don’t even think taylor is a lesbian 😭i think she’s some brand of bisexual but this still feels like a signal that she isn’t straight. we know taylor knows about which national days are what because she keeps up with it all enough to easter egg national scrabble day plus this is her big “lgbt ally era” (🙄) so you would think she would be keeping up with the days of awareness for members of the lgbt community.
and whether you think taylor was trying to come out that way or not, a lot of the internet did, and they went and wrote articles about it (lots of articles) (more on that later).
then there was the bi flag colored “proud” bracelet she pictured on her wrist and posted to ig:
turns out a fan made this for her because they were bi and proud about it but i don’t understand why she pictured that bracelet, she didn’t have to, she could have turned it so you couldn’t see the word proud. regardless more articles got written about how people thought taylor was coming out as not straight.
then there was the straightest gayest clusterfuck that was the yntcd music video in which taylor basically made herself the center of a gay pride riot in a gay trailer part. in the music video she represented all the gay pride flags and she posed with two herself:
the bi pride flag (yeah some people say there’s green at the top of her hair, i don’t care the colors are there):
and the pansexual pride flag:
both these pride flags were not represented anywhere else in the music video - just those scenes with taylor.
this prompted more people to wonder if taylor came out
it also prompted a lot of people to accuse taylor of queerbaiting, appropriating and infringing on gay culture, and overstepping her bounds as an ally. all responses to yntcd were loud
are you noticing a pattern? the lover era was just: taylor does something gay. people write articles about how they think she just came out/otherwise comment on her sexuality.
now you know taylor, who is obsessed with the media’s perception of her would have known about this. you know her publicist would have been duty bound to let her know, “hey taylor, all this gay stuff you’re doing? it’s making people speculate that you’re gay.”
and you would think that maybe if taylor didn’t like or appreciate this speculation around her she would have toned down the gay for her next project. instead she aired miss americana in which she listed gay pride as one of the things that made her, her.
as if that weren’t enough the next album she dropped was extraordinarily gay:
in folklore you have betty in which taylor sings about wanting to kiss a girl and yeah maybe it’s “from a male perspective” but 1. that’s a gay thing to do anyway and 2. the character that is the supposed male is named after an irl girl. we also get seven in which taylor sings to a childhood love who is a girl and she says they’ll have to hide in the closet. taylor isn’t stupid. she knows what being “in the closet” means. she is a writer and a brilliant one at that. she could have said anything- hide in the corner, hide in the cabinet, she very specifically chose the phrase that means to hide the truth about your sexuality.
and lest we forget about illicit affairs in which taylor sings to a lover who is cheating on a man with her.
and that’s just the explicit stuff, the entire album is laced with queer themes and coding other than just those songs.
many people wrote about and commented on how gay folklore was.
so the next thing taylor does? drops another super gay album including another love song canonically about a woman.
so antis, take note. taylor is not stupid. she doesn’t mind the speculation about her sexuality. i’m not saying she’s for sure gay. but if she’s not she absolutely is leaning into stirring on speculation anyway. and tbh if she’s ok with baiting this heavily and she’s not gay she might just be a terrible person? so reconsider your hetlor stance because a straight taylor = a baiting and unhinged taylor. so you don’t need to keep policing gaylors and telling them not to speculate about taylor’s sexuality. she is signalling to us that she is not straight which she 100% does not have to do. no one made her pose with the pan flag, no one made her write seven, no one made her include gay pride in a list of traits that define her in a documentary that she produced. this is purposeful on her part. it doesn’t mean she’s for sure gay but it does mean she wants people to wonder if she’s not straight.

Hey, Folks! This post is to try to help some people who still find it difficult to see and believe that there are relationships that are PR. And since this is a Kaylor blog (even if it’s not in my header, one day I’ll still update this. I swear!), I’ll pick up our favorite couple to illustrate some PR situations.
Before starting, an important point to note is that Karlie’s social media accounts have long since become an almost exclusively working tool. For those who followed Karlie Sunshine Kloss this is notorious. I don’t even remember the last time I saw a random post of her making funny faces or a silly video of her having real fun with her friends. Posts about herself, Karlie Elizabeth, are very rare. Anyway, nowadays, her IG is basically just work. That is, her posts are made to sell and promote certain products and people… like, KWK, IMG models, Jerk, Adidas, Estée Lauder…
Taylor in Quarantine:
1) Taylor said she started working in folklore when “they” (she and WB, she hinted to Apple) were stuck in LA during the lockdown (in California, started on 3/20/20) and that she stayed there for about 4 months. So Tay stayed in LA from late March until, more or less, late July/early August (Rolling Stones magazine).
2) On the day of the release of folklore, Aaron said in his IG that Taylor contacted him to work together in late April, and the next day (04/28) sended a cardigan for him (Tay’s IG “Not a lot going on at the moment”-04/27).
3) The lockdown was relaxed in California on 5/18. (x)
4) And even after the reopening of California, according to the dialogue between Tay and Jack during TLPSS (and Aaron in RS), folklore was recorded/finished when Tay was still in LA, at the “Kitty Committee Studio” aka the house her in LA. And only after the album was released did Taylor join the rest of the folklore family in Hudson Valley/NY, around the beginning of August (see item 1).
5) It was probably in the period between August-October that Taylor went to the UK. Period when the piano part of song evermore was recorded (if KK’s WB, she may have accompanied Tay, after all she spent most of the year using latergram, mainly after May), and when Tay made the video for GMA in the studio Marcus Mumford and also when she was papped with JA (I’m almost 100% sure). Why do I believe Taylor did all this in London, including the papped (published in 01/16/21), in 2020? Because London only relaxed the lockdown between June and October. In November the country started its second lockdown. And in the middle of December, there was an increase in the restrictions measures and there was a specific rule in effect that: “only one person from one household can find a person from another household, in a public and open space”. I don’t remember if this rule was already valid in November, but apparently it was. And as the “couple in love” lives “together” and in a “place of the two of them”, that Tay walk with the “mother-in-law” and JA could not have happened, since in January, once again the isolation measures were hardened, and in the 01/05, UK had started the third lockdown. During the period of November and until today, if I am not wrong, the restriction measures have only increased. That is, the papped is a latergram! (Sorry, Toe. Lie! I’m not sorry, “no, no, no, no”. Lol).
Could Taylor break through the block and pay a £ 200 fine? Of course, she’s a millionaire. But I think it is unlikely that she will do that, since she herself spoke of her displeasure at the inconsequence of people not respecting isolation. Not to mention the headache that Tree would have with the tabloids if she was caught breaking through the quarantine. Don’t forget, Taylor is terrified of bad publicity.
Tay’s PR was done after she avoided seeing the face of “oat milk” as much as possible, apart from their papped, and used the card “WB is my boyfriend” at the Grammy to try to sell the story that, even though he never appeared throughout 2020 with her, even for things related to folklore, they still staid quarantined together. And there is no use trying to justify his disappearance as WB with: “Ah! But they’ve a private relationship and he’s shy”. Okay, I respect both. But the purpose of creating and using a pseudonym for writing is precisely to hide the true author of a work. There’s no sense in them creating WB and a month later revealing their identity, if “Prince Charming” didn’t want to be noticed for that. Do you understand now?! And to make it clear, Taylor only revealed that she was Nils Sjöberg because people noticed her voice in the song, and started talking more about her participation instead of CH or Rihanna. And Calvin, being the asshole he is, started to claim that the success of the song was thanks to him who had created the hit.
Karlie in Quarantine:
1) At the beginning of the pandemic, Karlie was in NY for two months. A period in that cabin, supposedly, she was with Jerk. However, the few times he appeared, I think it was twice in her stories, guess who was with them? Jerk’s husband, Mikey Hess, who, despite being a “new father”, was spending time with them. During that time, some people here even realized that KK used latergram, at least once, while she was supposedly still there; And another period, in the city apartment, where she “lived” with Jerk, however, the only time he appeared with her in the apartment, it was a few days before Kar left NY, when they were papped on the building balcony.
2) Karlie was in California from mid-May to early August. Wait! Almost identical to the period that Taylor was in LA too… this is just a “Koincidence”, right?
3) Last year, on 5/18 (the same day as the relaxation of restrictive measures in California. Other Koincidence!), Kar posted a storie saying she was on her way to West with “Loved ones” (as she was seen days earlier on the porch with Jerk, implying that they were still isolated together, so it’s kind of implied that he went with her to LA). After KK published this post, a curious fact occurred, we had no idea where Tay could be and Kristine/Kimby lived in LA at that time, some here on the fandom still said, “Well, she has two sisters who live there. She may be going to stay with them”. A fair thought. However, on 05/20 Kar posted a video running on the beach and a pic with the Kloss women (#WomanCrushEveryday). A few hours later, Kristine, the sister who lives in LA, reposted KK’s pic and said she missed the sisters. WTH ?? Who did she go to stay with in LA? We were left with only one possibility, Taylor and their children furry and four legs, Mer, Dibles and Benji (The Swift Family!). After that she spent a long time without showing any pictures that she could say where and with whom exactly she was, despite posting a lot about BLM, KWK and old photos.
4) During that time, she showed us that she spent a few days at her parents’ home (Missouri) and most of that time, apparently, in California. I say apparently, because Karlie uses a lot of latergram to not say exactly where she is. For example, in July, she posted stories with KWK students for a few days while she was at the Kloss’ house. And in the middle of these stories, one day, she posted a video of a beach, as if she were on the coast. And Karlie did things like that, often in 2020. Another example, she was papped in NYC in August/September/November, but she was still posting photos and videos from her time in California, as if she were there at the time of post… That’s the incredible advantage of using latergram! She can be anywhere and pretend to be at the opposite end of her real location (Kar can do this easily because she’s a millionaire and learned to do it with the best person at being a ninja, her wife!).
5) Throughout her period in California Karlie had a long time without having to do stunts with Jerk personally, using only photos and videos alone, showing a beautiful house, supposedly hers, as a scenery. She was papped alone only once. Jerk appeared in a pic she posted and they were seen strolling together, all this only at the end of July. To be more exact, they were papped 3 times in those two weeks. And one of those times, were those photos taken in which Kar is wearing a white dress and a pissed off face. I remember reading around here, some people commenting on a girl who had said something like: “Karlie lives near where these pictures were taken. They’ve a house here in the neighborhood”. From what I understood from this conversation, the girl was saying that Jerk and Karlie own a house in the region. I don’t know who the girl was. In fact, I don’t even remember the blog where I read about it and much less do I know if this girl really existed or if it was all made up, the girl and the story (if someone saw this story and can share what/where it was, you don’t need to tag anyone and no blog, just share here how the story went). But even if neither the comment nor the girl is real, there’s someone else who hinted that Karlie had a house in California, one of her sisters.
Do you remember this photo?
Now see the comment from Kar’s sister!
After reading her sister’s comment, what does Kristine induce us to think? That this is the new kitchen at Karlie and Jerk’s house in California, right?! Okay!
Some around here have seen these photos and know where the house where Karlie spent a few days is, but for those who have not seen it yet, here is the link to two different sites of the same house. (x) (x) After I say all this, you must be asking yourself: “But where is the PR done by Joshlie 🤮?”. The PR was made through the suggestion that they both went to spend time in California together, in the photos that Karlie took in supposed “their new kitchen”, in the various photos and videos that KK took in supposed “their home” and in the papped of joshlie.
Now pretend for a moment that you never heard of Kaylor and that Jerk is not a disgusting person, okay?! If you had seen only what Karlie did in that last paragraph, you probably wouldn’t even look at this situation twice. You would just say, “Look! Karlie Kloss spent a season with her husband in California. Nice! Good for them.” Right?
Now, after you have seen Kar’s photo in the kitchen and looked at the photos of “Joshlie’s house” on both sites (Go look!), I will introduce to some, Misha Nonoo, the supposed woman (beard) of Mikey Hess (Jerk’s husband), at her home in California.
Did you notice anything in common in the pictures of both?
Look at the dates of the IG photos, in addition to overlapping the date of the photos, all photos were taken in the same house!
Kristine hinted that the house belongs to Karlie, but Misha claims that it belongs to her. WHAT?!
And the most interesting thing is not even trying to find out who the house belongs to. It does not matter! The real million-dollar question is: If Karlie is truly married to Jerk, and she just had “his” son and, according to many, is living her best life alongside the man “she chose instead of Taylor”, why did Karlie spend part of her time in California pretending to be just with Jerk, at “their house”, when in fact she was just covering up the time that Jerk and his husband were spending together hiding in that house in California? Or maybe, both guys weren’t even in LA, just their beards doing most of the dirty work, and they showed up after, only a few days, to do a photo or two to make people think they were there all the time (what’s typical of Jerk!).
To be more clear, if joshlie was real, Karlie would just have to share some quiet moments of the “couple in love” in his real house (and not pretend to be the owner of a house, even if the house was rented), or pictures of them having fun while sharing the house with the “couple of longtime friends”. It would be okay to show your “friends” if they were just that. But in this particular case, this cannot happen because there have been rumors for years that Jerk is married to Mikey Hess. Right here on tumblr there were pictures with Jerk’s personal data showing that he was already married even before “engaged” with Karlie, while her personal data showed that she was single.
Were you able to understand the PR here? Both beards, Karlie and Misha, tried to show some “intimate” moments during the quarantine, at “their” home. Too bad that because of these photos, Kar’s almost brilliant work went downhill because of some posts from the beard of Jerk’s husband, Misha.
But it was worth a try, Kar! Maybe next time, girl. 😉
👩🏼🤝👩🏼❤👶🏻
P.s.: Do you know an interesting detail? While in California, Karlie appeared in a video, in front of a glass door that does not match either the frames of the supposed “her house” in a Mediterranean style, nor the doors of the Kloss house. Whose house is this, Karlie Kloss?
☀❤🌻
No post, just a very special gift-from Taylor Swift.
I know y’all were devastated as I am about being disappointed last August 4, 2017 where the most awaited birthday post from Taylor Swift to Karlie Kloss never dropped that shocked the hell out of everyone. Karlie didn’t seem to mind though:
Intruiging, what that special gift is. 😏😏😏
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uNsQRurk7w
You should make a masterpost of taylor singing about how her lover walks :)
I should!
Karlie did teach Taylor the walk lol
hey, 9w1! hope you're having a great day.
genuine question, no intention to debunk or anything, just curious:
so, karlie is a model, right? that means, it's a part of her job to wear all the newest clothes and accessories, and then those stuff get sold to other people eventually, right?
isn't it possible that karlie possibly just has worn all of the new stuff already and it is a coincidence that some of those new stuff were bought by taylor because they're trendy or being sold at shops now? would it be likely that karlie and other celebs have matched clothing too coincidentally?
(disclaimer: i have no clue about how modelling or clothes work, i just saw a more eloquent version of this argument against koincidences/kaylor a while back, and wanted to hear your perspective on it. thanks!)
thanks for your question!
from my perspective, i think that this argument can work as an explainaway for a certain number of instances, but i do not believe it covers the breadth and depth of what we consider twinning.
because it’s not just about what taylor wears after karlie (or visa versa), but when, or for what special occasions, or the particular time elapsing between when things happen, or what taylor is doing while she is wearing said thing, similarity in composition, etcetera. and it’s seeing these things happen time and again, in aggregate, over time, and in combination with all the many other things we look at when we think about kaylor. whittling it all down to the point that models wear clothes before they are trendy is a little dismissive of the thought, intricacy, and planning that we as a fandom also laude taylor for in the same breath. taylor is a mastermind genius who says herself she hides easter eggs in clothing and jewelry… except for anything related to karlie?? hmm.
that is to say, while these explanations against twinning might be convincing if considered in a vacuum, they lack a consideration of the particular context of kaylor, and how people view taylor and karlie’s relationship.
for example, if the argument is to be made that taylor hates karlie and that they are feuding, it is so curious to me how she seemingly incorporates looks that are strikingly similar to what karlie wears into her art (music videos, live performances) which everyone can agree are personal and important to taylor. and if we get into some of the more intricate gaylor insistencies that taylor is broken hearted and karlie is just doing this to make money, well first of all how rude karlie is an established supermodel and businesswoman and it’s not even worth the investment to try and excite several dozen broke tumblr kaylors into spending money 😆 i can go more into detail on this point but i’m not exactly in the mood to throw down rn so i’ll leave it at that for the time being.
now, i recognize that this kind of thing will not do it for some people. and that’s fine! different types of things are compelling to different types of people. for me, as someone who was quite skeptical of twinning at first (back in 2017-18 when i first encountered kaylor), i’ve become quite taken by it all over the course of the last 4-5 years through the act of keeping tabs on it.
i encourage you or anyone curious but not swayed by twinning to take a look through these posts, and maybe keep it in the back of your mind for the time being. maybe at some point it will click!
