"Taylor Swift, who is practically professionally adorable (see: karaokeing with Prince William, designing polka-dot sneakers, matching her outfit to her red holiday Starbucks cup), celebrated her 24th birthday in the swiftiest\u2014a synonym for cutest, in case you didn't know\u2014way possible. She threw a super fancy, balloon-festooned garden party in Melbourne with all of her best pals, including, much to everyone's delight, Lorde. Because why wouldn't  the two coolest girls in showbiz who sing catchy pop jams and have enviable hair be BFFs?\n\nTaylor and Lorde were first spotted together at Shake Shack in NYC last month, where they presumably talked about boys (aaaaand taking over the world one teen anthem at a time) over chocolate milkshakes. And now they're such besties that Lorde flew all the way to Australia just for the birthday bash. Because that's what friends are for.\n\nAnd really, when Taylor Swift invites you to her birthday party, you go. See what we mean?\n\nThere were sparklers.\n\n\n\nAnd flowers (because: garden party).\n\n\n\nAnd lots and lots of balloons.\n\n\n\nAnd pretty girls in pretty dresses.\n\n\n\nSo yeah, best birthday ever. Or at least until next year rolls around.\n\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
