Need some Taylor Swift Eras Tour outfit ideas? How to match your flower crown with your outfit:

Before we dive into the flower crown crafting process, let’s explore some outfit ideas to help match your flower crown to the various Taylor Swift Eras Tour themes:

Taylor Swift Debut Era:

• Capture the country charm and innocence of Taylor’s debut album with floral dresses, cowboy boots, and a touch of vintage flair. Opt for a flower crown made of Sunflowers, Daisies, and blue Baby’s Breath all tied together with a light blue satin ribbon to reflect the simplicity and sweetness of this era.

Fearless Era:

• Make a statement with a vintage-inspired gold fringe dress paired with some diamante-detailed cowboy boots. For your flower crown, select blooms like white roses and metallic gold Hydrangeas that exude a romantic and charming vibe to complete your outfit choice.

Speak Now Era:

• Let sparks fly by channelling the whimsical elegance of this era with vintage-inspired outfits, embellished with tulle & lace details. Choose flowers in a range of purple shades that evoke this era’s fairy-tale spirit, like purple Roses, Orchids, Eucalyptus and more.

Red Era:

• Embrace boldness with vibrant reds and a hint of retro glamour. Your flower crown should also reflect the fieriness of this era. Go for rich red flowers like Roses, Peonies, and more to match this passionate aesthetic.

1989 Era:

• Go for a sleek, modern look with bold crop tops, high-waisted skirts, and plenty of metallic accents. This era calls for a bit of shimmer and sparkle, so choosing metallic silver Greenery and soft blue Hydrangeas are a perfect choice. Add some quirky Bird picks as a little nod to the album’s cover art.

Reputation Era:

• Embrace edgier styles with dark colours, leather jackets, and statement accessories. Add bold elements to your flower crown, like black Roses and Peonies that mirror the unapologetic attitude of this album.

Lover Era:

• There is no need to calm down your outfit choice for this romantic era. Think high-waisted shorts and face jewels! Select flowers in a rainbow of vibrant pastel hues when creating your flower crown, including yellow Bellflowers, pink Ranunculus, and more, to truly capture the essence of this era. Add a cute love heart padlock as a little nod to the album’s romantic aesthetic.

Folklore Era:

• Opt for a dress adorned with delicate floral patterns or lace details, reflecting the album’s folkloric imagery. Layer it with a lightweight, oversized cardigan to evoke a sense of comfort. Complement your ensemble with a flower crown that captures this era’s whimsical vibes. Choose a mix of white Bellflowers, and preserved Baby’s Breath to give it some ethereal allure. Intertwine them with natural elements like preserved moss for a pop of earthy colour. Finish off your design by adding a touch of vintage charm with a lace ribbon tie.

Evermore Era:

• Opt for cosy, cottagecore-inspired outfits with earthy tones, comfy sweaters, rich plaid flannels, and vintage accessories. Complement your ensemble with a preserved flower crown that embodies this era’s poetic allure. Choosing rustic and moody blooms like almond Moonwort, apricot Ranunculus, and brown preserved Bunny Tails will make this creation simply charming.

Midnights Era:

• Embrace the dreamy and mystical atmosphere of the “Midnights” album with dark, celestial-inspired outfits. Your flower crown can feature moody colours and elements, like blue Roses and French blue Orchids, that evoke the mysteries of the night. Don’t be afraid to add some bejewelled accessories to make your whole creation shimmer!

Steps on how to create an easy DIY flower crown with artificial or preserved flowers:

Now that you have a clear vision of your era-inspired outfit and the flowers you want to use, it’s time to start crafting your flower crown. Follow these straightforward steps:

Materials Needed:

• Your chosen Artificial or Preserved flowers
• Floral wire or a pre-made base
• Floral tape
• Wire cutters
• Ribbon or elastic cord
• Hot glue gun (optional)
• Accessories (optional)

2. Attach Your Ribbon: Tape your chosen ribbon to each end¼of the way up to secure it. Make sure to leave extra length to trim later.

3. Attach Your Flowers: Begin attaching your flowers to the base using floral tape. Start at the end of the wire near the ribbon and work your way inward. Alternate from small to big flowers around the crown to create a focal point at the front, or just go big all the way around! Let your creativity guide you to bring your vision to life.

4. Add Accessories: If you’re incorporating beads, ribbons, or other accessories, attach them where desired using floral tape or your hot glue gun.

5. Finishing Touches: If necessary, use a hot glue gun to reinforce any loose flowers or elements. Ensure there are no sharp edges or wires that could be uncomfortable to wear. Test out tying your crown around your head to see if it fits comfortably. Doing this can also help determine if you want to trim your ribbon length or not.

6. Wear with Pride: Your DIY flower crown is now ready to be worn! Pair it with your chosen era-inspired outfit and get ready to shine at the concert.
