She was one of the big winners in the fashion stakes at the American Music Awards on Sunday and Taylor Swift also triumphed, picking up four awards for her music.
The 23-year-old singer was named American Music Awards Artist of the Year, the night's top honour, for the third time and also won Country Album of the Year for Red and was named Favorite Female Country Artist and Pop/Rock Artist at the ceremony which was held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles on Sunday.
'My lucky number is 13, and so far you guys have made 2013 the most magical year of my life so far,' she gushed as she accepted the Artist of the Year award. 'I cannot thank you enough.
This validates that if you voted for this that we are heartbroken the same way and we fall in love the same way and we're happy the same way. And the fact that you would listen to my music means ... we're pretty much in it together, aren't we?'
Meanwhile, Taylor was also a winner in the style stakes.
While gold seems to be her colour of choice for the American Music Awards, this year Taylor upped the sex appeal.
Although the singer has worn dresses in the flattering shade to the awards show the past three years, for 2013 she decided to go all out bombshell, slashing the length and styling her blonde tresses into tousled waves.
The overall effect is reminiscent of Barbarella or a young Brigitte Bardot and Swift, 23, looked supremely confident as she strutted along the red carpet in a gold, strapless mini-dress from Julien Macdonald and matching Jimmy Choo sandals.
Of course, it’s not surprising that Taylor was out to look her best with both her former boyfriend Harry Styles and his rumoured latest love interest Kendall Jenner in attendance.
Ironically, Taylor's gold dress was worn by model Rosie Huntington-Whitely during a photoshoot with Harry's band One Direction.
The British star donned the tiny gold ensemble for a Glamour magazine cover she appeared on with the group and Harry is sure to have remembered it when he saw it on his ex as she took to the stage.
Swift's former BFF Katy Perry, who is now dating Taylor’s one-time fling John Mayer, was also present at the awards, giving Taylor just one more reason to ensure she dazzled.
And her efforts proved successful as the gorgeous starlet will have surely shown her exes what they are missing while earning herself a few new admirers with her latest red carpet outing.
Taylor wisely kept the rest of her outfit simple, wearing dangling gold earrings and a gold ring from Lorraine Schwartz and holding a matching Tod’s clutch.
Simple make-up, apart from dramatic dark eyes, completed her look.
Earlier in the day she tweeted: ‘Heading to the AMAs!!!! Excited! #AMAs (sic).’
Most of the year's top performers took to the stage at the AMAs, including Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Luke Bryan and Florida Georgia Line, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis.
Taylor did not perform although she was spotted enthusiastically dancing along to every performance in the audience.
Pitbull hosted while Jennifer Lopez offered a tribute to Celia Cruz.
Macklemore and Lewis were the fan-voted AMA's top nominees this year with six, while Swift and Timberlake had five apiece.
