A Birthday and a Beach

SITTING in front of the keyboard and the screen on the December evening of Saturday the thirteenth, I reflect upon another phenomenal year for Miss Taylor Alison Swift, pictured above, who is celebrating her Birthday on this day. This blog celebrated Miss Swift's Birthday on this date in 2013 too, which is the marker from where we will take a look at Taylor's incredible year. Miss Swift had performed at the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, where she smashed it with a live performance of I Knew You Were Trouble. Taylor Alison was in the final stages of the RED Tour in Australia as 2013 became 2014, the Tour visiting the O2 Arena in London for four sold out nights, as well as a whistle stop tour of Europe, as Winter became Spring.

At this point, Taylor was, as we now know, busy working on the new album, whilst taking a beach holiday, which was featured here on RFTFT recently - The 'Looking for Easter Eggs' photograph. It was Taylor's much anticipated Yahoo! Livestream web broadcast in early August that gave Taylor the moment to shine in front of her international audience, unveiling the album 1989 and the single, Shake It Off. The single became available to purchase, whilst the album became available on pre-sale. The television and radio promotional tour followed, including UK visits to BBC Radio 1, The Graham Norton Show on BBC 1 and Alan Carr: Chatty Man on Channel 4, as well as The X Factor on ITV 1. 1989 was released worldwide in late October, the packaging of the physical CD includes a cover slipcase and a set of 'Photo's from Taylor'. The album entered the charts at number one.

To complete the circle, Taylor performed at the 2014 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, performing Blank Space and Style, whilst dressing appropriately for the occasion, that is, short, skimpy and sheer.

Townsend's Mexico - Part Four!

MISS ROXANNE Townsend visited Mexico in Spring 2014 and here is another image that she shared on social media, which received a very true comment of  "Why is this face and body not on every billboard poster, coffee table magazine cover and TV show?"

I think you would agree; Red Hot Roxi is so sexy.

Enjoy.

Wallpaper of the week: .png edition

TO prove the versatility of this here blog, Wallpaper of the Week refers back to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2013, at which Taylor Swift, pictured above, performed 'I Knew You Were Trouble.' live and this here blog marked the occasion last November with a post 'Live from the Catwalk'.

This post would like to follow the lead of the post last November, in making the point that Miss Swift does have fine legs and there is a rumour that Miss Swift may have been offered the role of a model at the next VS Fashion Show later this year! The show this year is in London.

The Union Flag, on which the design of  Miss Swift's dress was based, has never looked better.

Enjoy.

LIVE from the VS 2013 Catwalk...

YES, RFTFT gets you everywhere, you lucky people. Well, not exactly live from the VS 2013 Catwalk, or anywhere near, for that matter. VS, by the way, stands for Victoria's Secret, who held their 'Class of 2013' Fashion Show this past week, which did have British involvement lead by Cara Delevingne, who, as reported here, was involved in many of the shenanigans before, during and after the show.

The show has also produced brand new BFF [that's Best Friends Forever, for those that were unaware] in the shape of VS Angel [Angel is the name given to the ladies who model in the VS Fashion Show] Lily Aldridge and the Superstar performer of the evening Miss Taylor Alison Swift - Not only did Taylor perform a couple of tracks at the show, including I Knew You Were Trouble., but also got involved in the fashions - Wearing a Union flag inspired outfit alongside Cara Delevingne in a football inspired outfit during a British element of the show, changing into a silver dress to perform again and join in the high fives, touches and pats with the Angels as they took to the catwalk, or the runway, to saunter past Swift as she performed. It was when Aldridge took to the stage that the media bestowed the honour of BFF upon her and Swift, as Swift seemed to be very much taken by Aldridge, as they exchanged smiles and blowing kisses to one another as Swift performed. Following the performance, Aldridge walked hand in hand with Swift on the runway, sealing their new BFF status. And here's the cute picture to prove it!

Now, I may be speaking out of turn here, but I think Miss Swift (on the left, obviously) has the better legs in this photograph, but I won't dismiss your opposing views, if you wish to share them using the Comment feature below.

Well, I think that's a nice way to round off the weekend and bring a smile into the new week. Thank you for visiting RFTFT and do return again soon!

One of those days...

MY FACEBOOK status update today was 'Ever had one of those days where you wish you had just stayed at home?', but at least things sometimes don't get as bad as they did for poor old Homer (pictured above). I had originally planned to post an image from the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, featuring Ms Lily Aldridge and Miss Taylor Alison Swift, but I will keep that for a future date. Tomorrow? Next week? The sooner the better I think. Until then... Smile!
