Taylor Swift took time out of her busy schedule to celebrate her friend Ashley Avignone’s birthday.

The Bad Blood hitmaker, 35, was among the guests at the stylist’s 40th birthday celebrations in New York City on Saturday.

Avignone shared a few snaps from the festivities on her Instagram on Sunday, including a photo of her and the superstar sharing a warm hug in front of a birthday cake.

Both friends matched in long-sleeved black looks, with Taylor, who attended the party with her boyfriend Travis Kecle, 35, sporting her signature red lipstick.

Swift also wore an elegant gold and diamond Cartier Santos Demoiselle watch, which sells for up to $31,000.

Another photo showed Ashley blowing out her birthday candle. The writing on the colorful cake humorously read: “Ash is 25 (again).”

“Happy birthday to me, emphasis on the *happy*,” the designer captioned her post.

The birthday party was held Saturday at the exclusive members’ club Chez Margaux in the Meatpacking District, according to People.

Swift and Avignone met through mutual friend Emma Stone and have been friends for 16 years.

Avignone has accompanied Swift to several Kansas City Chiefs games to cheer up the pop star’s tight end boyfriend.

Avignone also recently supported Swift at her own birthday party, an Eras Tour-themed party hosted by Kelce.

Earlier on Saturday, Swift and her boyfriend were seen holding hands while heading to Avignone’s birthday dinner.

Despite the cold temperatures, Swift put on a leggy display in a black minidress that contained a hemline that reached inches above her knees.

Taylor layered the ensemble with a long black coat that had shiny silver embellishments embroidered throughout the warm material.

The singer slipped on a pair of black peep-toe heels to match the monochromatic color scheme of her look.

Swift’s long blonde locks were parted down the middle and fell effortlessly over her shoulders in elegant waves.

The artist carried a small, stunning bag in her right hand to hold a few items she needed during the night.

Taylor glammed up the outfit even more by adding a pair of silver drop earrings and a silver chain necklace.

Kelce sported a vibrant look in a red denim jacket unbuttoned in the front, as well as a pair of matching baggy pants.

The pro NFL star added a printed white shirt underneath and slipped on a pair of black shoes secured with laces.

To complete the evening’s stylish ensemble, Travis added a cap to the top of his head and also opted for a pair of sunglasses.

The couple, who became romantically involved for the first time last year, were seen lovingly holding hands as they crossed a busy street upon arriving at the restaurant.

Just one day earlier, the lovebirds were spotted in the Big Apple for a double date with producer Jack Antonoff and his wife, Margaret Qualley.

Swift and Kelce paired coordinated looks while she donned a $5,500 Stella McCartney wool jacket that contained dazzling embellishments.

Social media users soon jumped on X to share their thoughts on the couple’s outfits, with one writing: ‘MATCHING COLORS AHHHHHHH TAYLOR AND TRAVIS YOU LOOK AMAZING!!!’

Another added: ‘Taylor and Travis’ matching outfits are so cute (sob emoji)’, while one shared: ‘Both outfits are really amazing! Taylor and Travis look amazing together.”

Earlier this week, a Chiefs source discussed Kelce’s plans with Swift amid his team’s brief break in the New day with the SSJ podcast.

The Chiefs competed against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day, resulting in a 29-10 Kansas City victory.

While mentioning Chiefs coach Andy Reid, the insider named Pete Sweeney stated, “I think Andy ended the (Steelers) game and gave the guys some time to do what they wanted to do.”

‘A tight end might be going to New York with his girlfriend, a quarterback might be hanging out with his kids. Who knows what the others are doing.

‘But I think it’s a good reset for these guys. “All of these guys will practice next week, but I have a zero percent feeling that any major starter will play in this game.”

Kelce will join the Chiefs on the football field next year on January 5 when they take on the Denver Broncos.
