Even though she was scheduled to be honored at a ceremony for Time Magazine’s Person of the Year gala, Taylor Swift spent Tuesday night with her best friend Selena Gomez, actor Miles Teller, and his wife Keleigh Sperry.

Despite being featured on the magazine’s Person of the Year cover, the 34-year-old hitmaker seemed to have chosen to forego the occasion in order to spend her birthday with her friends one day early.

The three went to the posh members-only club Zero Bond, where she wore a beautiful leather trench coat and mixed casual and stylish looks with seamless ease.

Taylor left Kanas City, Missouri, earlier in the day and landed in the Big Apple, where she maintains a penthouse.

Previously, she had been hanging out with her NFL player boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce.

Taylor’s apparent decision to miss the Time gala came as a shock because it was thought that she had returned to New York City just to attend the ceremony on Tuesday.

The hitmaker, however, has a history of being devoted to her friends and members of her “squad,” so it seems that she opted for a low-key evening with Gomez and their friends rather than the public event.

The party, with the exception of Gomez, was first seen approaching the club while getting out of a black luxury SUV.

Keleigh went first, with Taylor trailing closely behind.

The singer Anti-Hero made a statement with her trench coat made of brown leather, which contrasted sharply with the more conventional gabardine or cotton fabrics.

The puffy coat, with its epaulettes, hung loosely over her trim figure.

In addition to wearing her belt knotted, she was buttoned up to remain extra warm on this chilly evening.

Although Taylor’s undergarment was largely hidden, her high neckline of what she was wearing seemed to be showing through her coat.

Despite Miles surpassing Taylor’s 5’11” height with his 6’1″ frame, she still appeared to loom over him because of her oversized black platform boots adorned with thick gold Cuban links.
