It’s Nice to Have a… Friend? Or maybe a new piece of Taylor Swift merch to add to your collection? Yeah, I think that’s the nice thing you need to have right now!
This listicle is just a sea of pink items, most of which are pretty accessible and affordable on Amazon (there are two products from Etsy, but they have really good price points). If you’re a Lover lover, then these merch items are the perfect purchases for you to pick up while they’re still available. My personal favorites are numbers eight and eleven! Comment your favorite items — or anything you end up buying — down below.
1. A Lyrics-Inspired Bracelet Set

I’ve included these types of bracelets in other merchandise listicles because I just think they are so cute. I especially love how they are mostly accent bracelets with just two bracelets with lyrics or song names on them, so you can wear these to the Eras tour but also wear the regular bracelets when you aren’t necessarily trying to be full-on Swiftie. But if your vibe is wearing your Swiftie gear to class or while running errands, that’s cool too! This set is truly great for any Lover lover with any kind of vibe.
2. “You Need to Calm Down” T-shirt

“You Need to Calm Down” was a message to anyone who promotes hate speech against the LGBTQ+ community. However, you could also interpret it as a reminder to the anxious girlies and guys. A double entendré, if you will. If you are someone who needs the reminder to unclench your jaw and relax your shoulders, maybe this T-shirt will help! Reviews say it’s super soft, so you can size up to make it a sleep shirt or buy your exact size. It doesn’t say this on Amazon, but a little tip from me to you: make sure to wash it inside out so the lettering doesn’t peel!
3. Taylor Swift Coaster Craft

These Taylor Swift coasters are actually something you can decorate yourself. It’s called diamond art, and it involves dotting colors onto the coaster according to the instructions provided in the kit. Once you’re done dotting all of the colors on, you will have a recognizable silhouette-like picture of Swift in different costumes from the Eras tour! This could be a really fun thing to do with some of your friends.

4. Lover Necklace

This necklace comes in a bunch of different options — they also have “All Too Well,” Midnights and more — but I think the Lover one is the cutest, especially in the gold color. This version has the “best overall pick” label which means a lot of people gave it a good rating.
5. Lover Sweatshirt

Are they a Swiftie? Or are they just a lover, generally? That’s what people will wonder when you wear this sweatshirt. The lettering is so cute and I really like the color options. You could also make something similar yourself with this crewneck and these iron-on letters, which are from Amazon as well.
6. Eras Tour-inspired Lover Sweatshirt

This pink Eras tour sweatshirt is giving Lover… especially since it literally says on it that the person wearing it is an Eras Tour lover! The color is adorable and the design is really appropriate for a young Switftie. This sweatshirt only comes in child sizes, so it’s really the perfect gift for a child. They’ll be the coolest kid in school when they’re wearing their favorite pink Eras tour sweatshirt.
7. Lover Motel Keychain

This pink Lover keychain is the cutest touch for your keys. If you’re looking for some extra flair in your everyday items, this is definitely a good way to spruce things up. I also love this keychain from Etsy.
8. We Make the Rules Poster

Is this not the cutest touch to an apartment? I’m imagining it hanging on the wall of someone’s first college apartment, in celebration of living on their own for the first time. It doesn’t come framed, but it would look cute with or without a frame.
9. Lover x Reputation Puzzle

I am obsessed with this Lover/Reputation puzzle, especially because Lover was the next album after Reputation. I feel like a lot of Swifties would resonate with the vibe of a puzzle and wine night, so this could be a fun activity to do with friends or a great gift for a Swiftie in your life.
10. The Archer tote bag

This canvas tote bag is perfect for a trip to the library. Printed on it dutifully by the creator behind houseofbookish on Etsy are the lyrics of “The Archer.” Who could ever leave you, darling, when you’re carrying around such a cute bag?
11. “Cornelia Street” Sweatshirt

I can’t resist these types of designs. I love the embroidery, the way it makes the street look like a destination and the 1989 reference. And the bicycle is just too cute! It’s also a great price — make sure to grab it while it’s still on sale.
12. A Poster of the Lover Album, Reimagined
Credit: Amazon
This poster is the Lover album, reimagined: it has a photo of Swift with the glittery Lover heart around her eye, the Spotify code, the album colors, the song titles and all the information about the album’s release. How detailed! It definitely lives up to the standards of any hardcore Swiftie who wants a cute additive to a boring wall.
