Taylor Swift's influence is undeniable: whether it's crashing Ticketmaster with her sold-out concert tickets (here's how to buy Eras tour tickets if you weren't one of the lucky ones who managed to nab tickets), setting streaming records, or causing a measurable boost in the US economy, almost everything the singer touches turns to gold.
The same can be said about her effect on fashion. Business Insider reporter Juliana Kaplan spoke with several small businesses about the "Swift Effect;" Taylor's ability to sell out items and create big business for small brands she wears. One brand, Wove Made, saw a 2,000% increase in sales when Swift was spotted wearing a custom bracelet to a Chiefs game.
While Taylor Swift is reportedly now a billionaire, you can still find a surprising number of affordable brands in the singer's wardrobe. Sarah Chapelle, the fashion reporter behind Taylor Swift Style (which was the first to identify most of the pieces named in this article) and author of a forthcoming book of the same name, told Kaplan that one of Swift's signature style choices is pairing designer pieces with items from accessible retailers. "This kind of approach really underlines her approachable, relatable image," Chapelle said.
Below are 12 affordable items that Swift has been spotted wearing recently and that are still in stock (or at least available for preorder). We've also rounded up Taylor's favorite red lipsticks, plus many more of her favorite accessories in our guide to the best Taylor Swift gifts.

Taylor was spotted in the crowd wearing a $40 mini skirt from Halara with a buckle garter detail. She paired the skirt with a hat supporting Kelce's podcast New Heights, which quickly sold out.
