Taylor Swift shined on the 2025 Grammys red carpet on February 2; her ensemble for the evening’s festivities was nothing short of, well, eye-catching. Though I’m no Swiftie (I know, I know!), I’m aware of the singer’s love of red, which was the color of her custom, sparkling Vivienne Westwood corset dress—and, of course, her coordinated lippie. I’m also aware of her talent for making everything feel like it’s an Easter egg, and I’m pretty darn sure her jewelry of choice was definitely one. While she probably wasn’t suggesting this, I will: Her initial thigh chain would make an amazing last-minute Valentine’s Day gift, too.
Let’s roll it back a second, though. The singer paired her red dress with statement red earrings, but the sparkly star in the accessory department wasn’t what was hanging from her ear lobes; instead, it was what was hanging from her thigh. I’ve seen belly chains and wrist chains, but I haven’t seen thigh chains—the accessory is so slyly sexy, which makes it a must-try, but of course, it becomes even more sexy because of its personalized nature (ahem, the T initial hanging from it).

Fans have speculated about what the “T” charm stands for; obviously it could be for Taylor’s first name, but it might also allude to her Chiefs boyfriend Travis Kelce—since he didn’t attend with her, it was a way to keep him close, literally. Others think it could be a nod to a few of her songs, where she directly talks about initial chains. So many possibilities, and it’s all up to interpretation, but one thing’s for sure: Initial anything is about to sell out, especially since Swift just served up the perfect gift to give anyone on your gift list this season and beyond.
Initial jewelry is a sure-fire win in the gifting department; it’s small but mighty, and I’d even go so far as to call it a universally loved present. First of all, who doesn’t love to receive some glitz and glam (and no, it doesn’t have to cost a lot either). Second of all, the personalized nature of the gift makes it all the more special—not to mention it’s so easy to customize for the simple fact that it, well, just requires the giftee’s first initial (or last or middle or all, whatever you prefer!).
Swift’s thigh chain is harder to find, but there’s a plethora of initial necklaces, bracelets, rings, and belly chains that are perfectly giftable—and fall right in line with the singer’s love of initial jewelry.
