Swifties, These Rhyme Without Reason Costumes Will Have You Cracking Up

Now that the dreaded finals season is in the rearview mirror and the holidays have drawn to a close, many of us are looking forward to reconnecting with friends on campus at college parties, including Rhyme Without Reason parties, which have been trending at colleges and on TikTok For You pages for a while now. After all, you need a way to ring in the spring semester with style… or with “Style,” for the Swifties out there.

If you’re a fan of Taylor Swift, the start of a new semester is the perfect opportunity to have some fun with your friends and throw a carefree party just for the sake of it. I don’t know about you, but Rhyme Without Reason parties are probably my favorite because of how creative you can get with your costumes — and I’ve got some creative costume ideas for you based on your favorite songs and albums by Swift. So get ready to dress up as your favorite Swiftie persona with these 25 Rhyme Without Reason ideas for Taylor Swift fans and have the best time with your friends! (Take the moment and taste it, if you will.)

“Our Song” + a bong

This one is hilarious for all of you smokers (where it’s legal, of course).

“Picture to Burn” + a fern.

Strap on your favorite fern and call it a day!

“Fifteen” + Halloween

Pull out your old Halloween costume for this.

“Love Story” + Rory (Gilmore)

Cheers to Gilmore Girls!

“Speak Now” + a Cow

Moo. This costume combo might be the easiest to do!

“Red” + Dead

Throw on your red lipstick and maybe a tombstone for either of these costumes.

“All Too Well” + Hell

This is the time to grab that costume from when you and your friend went as an angel and devil for Halloween.

“22” + a Who (Dr. Seuss)

Cindy Lou Who, to get into the holiday spirit.

1989 + red or white wine

It’s giving “Maroon” from Midnights.

1989 + a tree vine

Wrap yourself up in vines and wear all green to complete this look.

“Style” + Dial (the soap)

I love this idea because Dial is my No. 1 soap.

“Getaway Car” + a superstar

When I think superstar, I think Hannah Montana. What about you?

Reputation + salvation

My reputation’s never been worse, so…

“Miss Americana” + Rihanna

Picture RiRi’s halftime performance at the 2023 Super Bowl.

“Cruel Summer” + a plumber

This is for everyone whose Spotify Wrapped had “Cruel Summer” in their top five.

“Paper Rings” + the King

All hail the king!

“Cardigan” + a chicken

Time to bring out the folklore cardigan.

Travis Kelce + someone wealthy

Karma is the guy on the Chiefs…

Midnights + a vampire bite

For both Swifties and Olivia Rodrigo fans.

“Cowboy like me” + a bumblebee

Buzz Buzz, Barry B Benson.

“‘Tis the damn season” + treason

Cue the guillotine.

Taylor + a sailor

Ahoy there!
