Here at Holiday Numbers, we’re big fans of Taylor Swift. 1989 didn’t stop playing on our iPods for most of 2014 and we love to browse her Instagram to see the ‘girl squad’ in action. Not only does Ms. Swift have the friendship circle of dreams (Blake Lively and Gigi Hadid, anyone?!), an apartment in New York and a glittering career, she also gets handsome men. Yes, we know the media loves to chastise Swift for her ex-boyfriends, but we thought we’d celebrate her movie star life, by taking a look at some of the love locations that she’s visited over the years.

Taylor has a beachfront home here and we’ve seen it in the press a lot recently, thanks to her high-profile romance with British actor Tom Hiddleston. It was here that the twosome were first papped sharing a kiss and they returned to celebrate the 4th of July here with their friends, including Karlie Kloss, Ruby Rose and Blake Lively.

They haven’t been going out for too long, but it’s safe to say Tom and Taylor have taken their romance on a slight world tour. After popping in to visit his mum in Suffolk, the pair headed to Rome where they were papped checking out the Colosseum.
Inspired by Taylor: Check out the stunning landmarks such as the St. Peter’s Basilica then stop off for coffee in a traditional Italian café.
Caribbean

Taylor visited the Caribbean with Calvin Harris earlier this year, bringing us a delightful array of loved up vacation snaps, that looked like they had fallen straight out of the pages of a honeymoon magazine. They drew in the sand and even sealed things with a foot popping kiss. Taylor, of course, gave us bikini body envy throughout the whole thing.

Los Angeles

Taylor has been spotted in various parts of LA over the years. Back in 2009, she dated Taylor Lautner after meeting on the set of a film. Taylor + Taylor (not a clothes shop) were THE couple of that year, until they broke up in early 2010. They were spotted indulging in shopping and a bite to eat in Beverly Hills.
Rumour also has it that Taylor L was spotted at Calvin Harris’ Coachella set alongside Taylor earlier this year. Maybe he forgave her after Back to December, a song which was said to be an apology for a bad breakup.
Inspired by Taylor: If your boyfriend doesn’t have an Audi R8 to drive around Beverly Hills in, or you can’t get a ticket to Coachella, Spago is an Italian restaurant which has rave reviews, and who knows, you may spot a celebrity!
New York City (and the outer boroughs!)

Taylor’s love of New York city has long been documented- she has an apartment in the area which is her primary home. She’s also made it the perfect date city with two of her ex boyfriends, Jake Gyllenhaal and Harry Styles. She was spotted with Jake grabbing brunch in Brooklyn, and with Harry on a picture-perfect date in Central Park.
Inspired by Taylor: I agree with Taylor & Harry. I couldn’t think of a better date than wandering around Central Park, followed by a burger at Shake Shack…just try not to spill it down your chin as you chow down…or maybe that’s just me!
British Virgin Islands

Taylor and Harry headed off here for a New Year’s vacation in 2013. They visited Virgin Gorda, but it wasn’t to be as the couple allegedly had a messy argument, leading to Swift making…well, a swift exit, whilst Harry stayed. Virgin Gorda has bright blue sea surrounding it and only has a few resorts, so it’s the perfect place for a private getaway.
Inspired by Taylor: If you like Pina Coladas…no I’m not going to finish the lyric…but head to the Mad Dog Cafe, they’re said to be the best on the island.
Massachusetts
The lady sure loves New England. In 2012, Taylor embarked on a romance with Conor Kennedy. She was regularly spotted at the Kennedy compound in Massachusetts and even bought a house nearby. However, the couple quietly split after a few months due to long distance. We all silently mourned the loss of Taylor’s sixties-chic wardrobe that were a heavy feature in the paparazzi photos with Conor.
Inspired by Taylor: A visit to Massachusetts is incomplete without clam ‘chowdah’ and a visit to the various farmers markets.
London

Showing just how cool she really is, Taylor was spotted in London in 2015, on a double date with her EX Joe Jonas, his girlfriend Gigi Hadid and Calvin. Karlie Kloss also tagged along for a boat ride across the Thames. We certainly can’t imagine being stuck on a boat with our ex!
Inspired by Taylor: If you haven’t got Karlie Kloss as a tour guide, book a Thames river cruise with City Cruises.
We can’t all afford to take our love on a world tour like Taylor, but we certainly love to look at the photos, which look like they are straight out of a film.
We love you, Taylor! Just don’t get so busy with your love life that you forget to give us new music!
