Taylor Swift’s fragrance Wonderstruck contains “all kinds of stuff”.
The pop star has collaborated with Elizabeth Arden to create her first perfume and says there is a wide ranging mix of notes in the scent.
She told ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’: “There’s all kinds of stuff in there. It’s got vanilla and amber and freesia and also notes of peach and raspberry. It’s got everything.”
The pop star has previously revealed inspiration behind naming the new scent – which launched last month and will be rolled out worldwide over two years -came from her song ‘Enchanted’ about meeting a special someone and the tune features in the promotional video.
She explained: “I share personal life experiences through my music, and my fragrance will allow me to share these experiences with my fans in a completely different and new way. Falling in love is a moment every girl daydreams about and Wonderstruck represents that magical feeling of promise and hope and intrigue. It was fascinating to learn that you can layer so many different scents to create a beautiful end result.”

Taylor Swift says her fragrance Wonderstruck is “a rush of something new”.
The pop star has collaborated with Elizabeth Arden to create her first perfume and claims it was inspired by new connections including falling in love.
Speaking in a new teaser clip for the scent – due to be released next month – she said: “It’s a spark, a connection, a rush of something new. Once you’ve been struck, you’ll never be the same again.”
The new scent -which will be rolled out worldwide over two years starting in October – features freesia, green tea, apple blossom, raspberry and dewberry and Taylor wants it to leave a last impression.
She said: “A fragrance can help shape someone’s first impression and memory of you. It’s exciting to think that Wonderstruck will play a role in creating some of those memories.”
The pop star has previously revealed inspiration for the fragrance’s name came from her song ‘Enchanted’ about meeting a special someone and the tune will feature in the promotional video.
She explained: “I share personal life experiences through my music, and my fragrance will allow me to share these experiences with my fans in a completely different and new way.

Taylor Swift looked sweet and girlish as usual in a Marilyn Monroe-style white sundress
This weekend it was the teenybopper’s Oscar night as the Teen Choice Awards took place in California. All the usual teenage Disney stars and popstrels were there, along with a few more grown-up faces.
Taylor Swift, our favourite angel-faced country-pop singer, had a great weekend as she walked away with the Ultimate Choice award along with five others, including Favourite Female Artist and Favourite Country Artist. She looked sweet and girlish in a full-skirted white halternecked dress that was more than a little bit Marilyn Monroe.
Gossip Girl‘s Blake Lively looked absolutely incredible in an unusual orange leather tailored dress that showed off her perfect figure (we hate her, we hate her, we hate her). She also took away the award for TV’s best dramatic TV actress.
The Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie didn’t take away any awards, though she gets a style award from us for her cool and youthful star-printed minidress. Neither did the Kardashians, though they were all out in force with their fiercest heels and sexiest dresses. Kim K looked amazing in a white-and-black cocktail dress with a feathered skirt.
Disney actress Selena Gomez, who is Justin Bieber’s current squeeze, looked pretty and sophisticated in a sexy gold satin cocktail dress with a draped chiffon train. We also loved Rachel Bilson’s look, who opted for a sweet and romantic look in a white ruffled Chloe dress.
Check out our gallery to see the celebrities we’ve mentioned above, along with plenty others.

Taylor Swift’s fragrance Wonderstruck was inspired by falling in love.
The pop star has collaborated with Elizabeth Arden to create her first perfume and Taylor revealed the name came from her song ‘Enchanted’ about meeting a special someone.
She told WWD: “I share personal life experiences through my music, and my fragrance will allow me to share these experiences with my fans in a completely different and new way. Falling in love is a moment every girl daydreams about and Wonderstruck represents that magical feeling of promise and hope and intrigue. It was fascinating to learn that you can layer so many different scents to create a beautiful end result.”
The new scent -which will be rolled out worldwide over two years starting in September – features freesia, green tea, apple blossom, raspberry and dewberry and Taylor likened choosing the scent to planning an album launch.
She said: “Writing songs is a process unlike anything else, and I’ll never experience anything like it. However, coming up with ideas for this fragrance and the packaging and message of it reminded me of what it’s like to plan an album launch.
“You come up with a theme that represents all these tiny moving parts, a sum of all the planning and creating. Then it goes out into the world and becomes a part of people’s daily lives.”

By Andrea Petrou on April 20th, 2011
With bold colours being hot this season, it was only a matter of time before we saw this trend filter through to our footwear – something that was shown on the catwalks of Prada.
One colour that’s really made a stand in our shoes is red. Known for being an all round seasonal colour – as well as the iconic hue of Dorothy’s shoes – this colour is set to be huge, getting a big foot in the fashion footwear door this season. It’s already been spotted on heels, sandals, platforms and peep toes, as well as gracing the feet of many a celeb.
Spotted in this trend so far is Alexa Chung, Katy Perry, Blake Lively and Leighton Meester. Taylor Swift also showed how to wear contrasting bolds when she turned up in a bright yellow dress and red shoes for an appearance on a television show. Kylie Minogue went the other way showing us how to spice up that classic black dress with a bit of colour. We’re ordering our red shoes right now.
See the gallery below for all the celebrities wearing this colour.

Taylor Swift has reportedly bought her parents a $1.4 million estate.
The 21-year-old singer splashed out on the property for Andrea and Scott Swift in Nashville, Tennessee and is said to be visiting them there when she’s not working in Los Angeles.
Built in the 1920s, the new home boasts three bedrooms, 5,000 sq ft of land, a blue stone terrace and a huge outdoor fireplace.
A source said: “It’s an incredible house. Taylor’s been visiting her parents there and she’s so excited for them.”
Meanwhile, the blonde beauty is also said to have bought a new home for herself in Los Angeles, where she spends most of her time when she’s not in Nashville, to save on accommodation costs whenever she visits
Another source told Us Weekly magazine: “[Taylor] just bought a beautiful home for herself in L.A.. She is in L.A. so much — and she was paying a fortune in hotel charges!”
It’s no surprise that the ‘The Story of Us’ hitmaker has been so generous to her parents, as they have been extremely supportive of her career.
Taylor recently spoke of how Scott is her biggest fan and even goes to the effort of handing out her merchandise.
She said: “My dad is adorably optimistic, positive, pie-in-the-sky. He thinks every new song I write is my best. He sells T-shirts at my merchandise stands and hands out guitar picks to fans.”
However, Andrea has kept the musician grounded throughout her ascent to stardom.
Taylor said: “Mom is a planner, an organizer. She’s very strong and practical. She’s the person that’ll tell me if I ever start to change my personality. The balance of the two of them created my personality.”

With the summer sun beating away we’re all looking at ways to get that beauty look just right.
We want to look bronzed, yet too much can give a hint of the orangutan look, and black eyeliner seems so last season.
Thankfully celebrities have been showing us how to incorporate the two and exactly what we should be doing with our eyes this season.
That’s right golden tones are back in.
Alexa Chung showed us exactly how this eye colour should be worn when she showed off her smoky eyes a few weeks ago, while Blake Lively showed us how to add for an evening look.
See all the star style in the gallery below.
