'You used to call me on my elf phone': Taylor Swift shows her Christmas spirit by dressing up as Santa's helper

Taylor Swift is enjoying a break from her busy performance schedule, well deserved to be sure.

The 26-year-old took advantage of her downtime by dressing up as one of Santa's elves and posting a picture on social media on Thursday.

Taylor appeared to wearing little or no make-up, a rarity in itself, while clad in red-striped trousers, a green sweat shirt with jagged edges, and a red and green cap.

The Style hitmaker may have listening to Drake's hit single Hotline Bling when she captioned the picture.

'You used to call me on my elf phone,' Taylor wrote.

That was a lighthearted reference to rapper's refrain, 'You used to call me on my cell phone/Late night when you need my love/Call me on my cell phone/Late night when you need my love.'

Shield yourself from the cold in a festive beanie like Taylor

We're just days away from Christmas and Taylor Swift seems to be filled with Holiday cheer. The Shake It Off singer shared a festive snap on her Instagram of her freshly made snowman alongside her boyfriend, Calvin Harris, and brother, Austin.

The blonde beauty was dressed for cold weather when she donned a quilted jacket, snow pants and a neck scarf. But what really caught our eye was her beanie.

It's by Aeropostale and the red pom pom, light up motif, and Rude-olph slogan shot this beauty to the top of our wish list. Sadly we won't be stuffing our stockings with the knit topper as it's currently sold out online.

But if you're in the market for a new winter hat it's only a click away in the edit below. Snag a quirky print from Topshop, SimplyBe, New York & Company or The North Face and go!

Taylor recently enjoyed some fun in the snow with her boyfriend Calvin Harris.

The Wildest Dreams singer posted a picture of her and the Scottish DJ posing beside a snowman they'd built while Taylor's brother Austin lounged alongside it.

'Really proud of ourselves over here,' Taylor wrote in the caption.

She was bundled up in a dark coat, dark trousers and knit cap while her blonde hair bunched up at her shoulders.

A second shot showed Taylor and Calvin during the construction phase of their snow man, patting down what would be the bulky midsection.

Taylor was has been traveling nonstop for the past seven months while on her hot-selling 1989 World Tour.

The lanky hitmaker performed her last stop in Melbourne, Australia on December 10, looking slim in a shimmery purple mini-skirt and black sequin crop top, and ankle boots.

Earlier this year, the pair were dogged with split rumours just months after they got together in March.

But Calvin was quick to deny any break-up, taking to Twitter to write: 'It's not going to be a "happy ending" for everyone I sue for defamation of character for all these bulls**t stories bye bye.'
