Nine years after the release of the "You Belong with Me" music video, <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://people.com/music/taylor-swift-look-what-you-made-me-do-music-video-squad/" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Swift recreated her iconic Junior Jewels shirt;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Swift recreated her iconic Junior Jewels shirt</a> in her "Look What You Made Me Do" video. The updated shirt included names of her best friends, including "Blake & Ryan," "Selena," "Gigi," "Lena" and more.

Fans got to see Swift try on a goth look in the video. Earlier this year, the superstar admitted to once using <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://people.com/style/taylor-swift-beauty-lessons-elle-cover/" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Sharpie marker;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Sharpie marker</a> ... maybe this served as inspiration?

Swift throws it back to the '60s with her hippie-inspired get-up.

She's worn her hair long and curly, short and straight, with bangs and without — but these fun pigtails haven't made an appearance in public again.

We're guessing those sneakers Swift sings about in the song are just out of frame.

Forlorn on a park bench as she watches her one true love ride off with a gal who's all wrong for him ... is there anything teens related to more 10 years ago?

Also playing the mean girl, Swift donned a brunette wig for the role. She's also <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://people.com/country/cmt-awards-2018-taylor-swift-sugarland-babe-music-video-teaser/" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:sported wigs in several other music videos;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">sported wigs in several other music videos</a>, including for "Babe," "Bad Blood," "Wildest Dreams" and more.

"I remember I was overhearing a conversation one of my friends was having with his girlfriend, and he was obviously getting completely chewed out by her! She was just screaming through the phone at him, and I think it was for something really small, like he told her he'd call her in 10 minutes and instead it was 15 minutes later ... something like that," <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://theboot.com/story-behind-the-song-you-belong-with-me-taylor-swift/" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Swift once told the Boot;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Swift once told <em>the Boot</em></a> about the inspiration behind her hit track. "I remember thinking to myself, 'Why does he let her push him around like that because she obviously doesn't appreciate him?' But instead of saying that out loud to him, I wrote it down in a song."

"She wears short skirts / I wear T-shirts / She's cheer captain / And I'm on the bleachers..." Self-explanatory.

See: Swift in her T-shirt (on a typical Tuesday night).

Every great rom-com has an epic makeover, so of course Swift featured one in her music video. As she sings in <em>another</em> fan-favorite track? <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://people.com/music/taylor-swift-call-it-what-you-want-love-story/" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:It's a love story;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">It's a love story</a>, and baby he (in this case, actor Lucas Till) said "Yes!"

Taylor Swift gained a legion of Swifties 10 years ago when she released her iconic love song "You Belong with Me"
