Mad Woman

The feminist ballad about gaslighting, “Mad Woman,” proves popular among Taylor Swift tattoos. Just two simple words tell a complex story.

August

“To live for the hope of it all” is a lyric from the song “August.” The song is a favorite from Swift’s Folklore album and many tattoos are inspired by it.

Champagne Problems

“Your heart was glass” is a line from “Champagne Problems.” Despite being a Taylor Swift hit, the song does not inspire a great number of tattoos. That makes this one a unique find among Taylor Swift tattoos.

Portrait with Snake

We must tell you that portrait tattoos are a risk. If you want an image in the likeness of Taylor Swift on your body, research before pulling the trigger. Find an artist with a proven track record of success.

Mastermind

This is one of our favorite Taylor Swift tattoos on the list. It’s a potion tattoo inspired by the song “Mastermind” from Midnights. Specifically the image references “And the touch of a hand lit the fuse / Of a chain reaction of countermoves / To assess the equation of you / Checkmate, I couldn’t lose.”

Taylor Swift Meets Artemis

Okay! We have a goddess-inspired Taylor Swift tattoo here that imagines her as Artemis. It’s a clever concept as she is the goddess of wild animals and the hunt. Do you see the bow and arrow incorporated into the design? It’s a reference to Swift’s song, “The Archer.”

Anti-Hero

“I’ll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror,” is a line from the hit “Anti-Hero.” We find that lyric replicated in visual form in this darling Taylor Swift tattoo.

Mirrorball

By far, the most popular style of Taylor Swift tattoo is of a disco ball. The image references the song “Mirrorball.” While researching this piece, we saw countless mirrorball tattoos, and the words “try, try, try” are a popular accompaniment.

Forever and Always

“Oh, and it rains in your bedroom / Everything is wrong / It rains when you’re here, and it rains when you’re gone / ‘Cause I was there when you said, ‘Forever and always,’ seems to be the specific lyric that inspired this Taylor Swift tattoo. Isn’t it gorgeous?

Fearless

The album, Fearless, inspires this tattoo. Swift was just 20 years old when she recorded it, proving that she was young and fearless.

All Too Well

“Just between us, did the love affair maim you too?” Swift asks in the song “All Too Well.” This haunting match tattoo with a blue flame is inspired by it.

The Other Side of the Door

“T.O.S.O.T.D.” can be found in a banner on these matching record tattoos. The abbreviation references “The Other Side of the Door.” If you are part of a Swiftie squad, consider getting matching designs to celebrate your favorite artist.

Karma

There are so many Taylor Swift tattoos inspired by “Karma.” In this example, we find the letters morphing into a cool shape. If you are going to get a word or phrase tattooed, work with your artist to come up with creative ways to make the lettering look fresh.

Long Story Short

How about these beautifully tattooed koi fish? We think they are the perfect pairing for this Swift tattoo inspired by “Long Story Short.”

Cowboy Like Me

While many of the Taylor Swift-inspired tattoos on this list are pretty direct with what they reference, you can go the subtle route. A skull wearing a cowboy hat is a fun design that references “Cowboy Like Me.” Cowboy boots are also popular!

Ivy

“My house of stone, your ivy grows… and now I’m covered in you,” is a lyric from “Ivy.” If tattoos are any indication, this song is one of Swift’s that profoundly resonates with fans. There are so many ivy tattoos out there! This is the first on this list, but it won’t be the last.

More Mirrorball

We told you there were a bunch of mirrorball tattoos out there. Here’s one that dials up the color and is improved with a funky cowboy hat. Your tattoo, your rules.

More Ivy

How gorgeous is this ivy tattoo? We’re blown away! This is another one of the Taylor Swift tattoos that is not explicitly about the artist and her music. It’s an understated nod to the beloved song.

Portrait Mode

Taylor Swift portraits are mildly popular, but many artists swing and miss. So, please be careful when you go to get one.

Taylor’s Version

Taylor Swift famously re-recorded her early albums to have control over her body of work. So many “Taylor’s version” tattoos are out there that remark about it.

With Love

Getaway Car

A Cup of Anti-Hero

“It’s me, hi, I’m the problem, it’s me,” is a lyric from “Anti-Hero” used to inspire this teacup design. We are head-over-heels for this very sweet and pretty design.
