LOS ANGELES, Dec 14: Celebrating the 'damn season' of her birthday, Taylor Swift marked her 34th year with a glamorous night out in New York City on December 13. Despite her boyfriend Travis Kelce being unable to join her, Taylor kicked off the festivities with friend Blake Lively. Paparazzi captured the moment, singing happy birthday to the "Lavender Haze" singer, who smiled and linked arms with Blake as they exited a car.

Both dressed in dark ensembles, Blake wore a striking black leather dress with a high slit and knee-high Louboutin boots. Taylor, embracing her Sagittarius spirit, donned a glittering minidress adorned with cloud, moon, and star motifs resembling constellations, giving her a radiant, starlight appearance.

Travis, focusing on the Kansas City Chiefs game against the New England Patriots on December 17, couldn't be by Taylor's side. However, Taylor, understanding the significance of their careers, recently attended an Arrowhead Stadium game to support her boyfriend. In a cover story for TIME's December 6 issue, Taylor emphasized the pride they take in each other's achievements.

Despite Travis's absence, Taylor enjoyed her birthday with many friends, appreciating the company and camaraderie instead of viewing it as a "problem."
