Of course, back on Sept. 15, Swift wore a nearly identical 'fit to watch Travis Kelce and the Chiefs take on the Bengals ... and while similar clothes don't exactly mean the two are BFFs forever, it sure seems to throw water on the rumors their friendship's hit a skid due to their political differences.
