Taylor Swift is known for her sweet songs, elegant blonde curls and red lips. However, the country chanteuse sports a rock 'n' roll style in the latest issue of Vogue.

As the February cover states, the shoot gave "a cool new look for America's sweetheart." Staying close to her country roots, T-Swift is depicted in the pages of Vogue lounging on plush velvet sofas in flowing, flowery gowns that seem just as perfect for senior prom as they do for frolicking in a meadow on a Sunday afternoon.

Her signature curls are straightened and given a trendy boost with thick, straight-across bangs as she takes on a rock-star vibe. Rocking all Rodarte threads, the sassy singer maintains an edgy look that makes her seem like she could be on the arm of any of the greatest rock stars of the 1970's. Big hats, aviator sunglasses, high-heel boots and fringed accessories, TayTay looks nothing short of fearless.

But this independent singer doesn't need a Mick Jagger or John Lennon to hold her own, as she has proved throughout her music career. Her cool-girl makeup, though a variation from her usual sweet, natural look, only further asserts her alpha female personality. Thick black eyeliner and super-black smudged eyeshadow is a simple yet sassy way to add a bit of punk to this sugary crooner's country style.
