Taylor Swift spent time with her close friends Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh Sperry on Tuesday night, even as she was set to be feted at a ceremony for Time Magazine’s Person of the Year gala.

The 34-year-old hitmaker appeared to have decided to skip the event — despite having scored the cover of the magazine’s Person of the Year issue — to celebrate her birthday a day early with her pals.

She effortlessly blended casual and chic styles with a striking leather trench coat as the trio visited the swanky members-only club Zero Bond.

Taylor had arrived in the Big Apple — where she keeps a penthouse — earlier in the day after departing Kanas City, Missouri.

She had previously been spending time with her NFL star boyfriend Travis Kelce, who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs.

Taylor’s apparent decision to skip the Time gala was shocking, as she was assumed to have flown back to New York City on Tuesday for the express purpose of attending the ceremony.

But the hitmaker has long shown loyalty to her friends and members of her ‘squad,’ so she appeared to have chosen an intimate evening with her pals Miles and Keleigh over the high-profile event.

The trio were spotted stepping out of a black luxury SUV as they walked up to the club.

Keleigh led the way and Taylor followed close behind. She stood out in her striking tan leather trench coat, a departure from the more traditional gabardine or cotton materials.

The voluminous coat featured epaulettes and fit loosely over her svelte frame.

She wore the belt twist tied, but also buttoned up to stay extra toasty on the chilly evening.

Her look underneath was mostly covered up, but Taylor appeared to be wearing some kind of black ensemble, as its high neckline peaked out from her coat.

Although Miles bests Taylor’s 5ft11in height with his 6ft1 stature, she still seemed to tower over him thanks to her chunky black platform boots, which were decorated with thick gold Cuban links.
