He's met the parents! Taylor Swift 'introduced new love Tom Hiddleston to her mom and dad' during Nashville trip

She's been hanging in Nashville with new love Tom Hiddleston and even though the romance is still brand new, Taylor Swift has apparently already introduced her new man to her parents.

Following lunch with her mom Andrea and dad Scott, the Shake It Off! songstress took them back to her home in the country music capital to say hi to the British actor, People reported Friday.

It was the culmination of a short stay for the newly-minted couple who had danced together at a Selena Gomez concert in Nashville on Tuesday night and enjoyed a romantic dinner together in the Tennessee city on Wednesday night.

It was part of a busy day for Taylor, 26, who also stopped by The Country Music Hall of Fame in Nashville to meet young fans at The Taylor Swift Education Center.

The star has donated $4 million to help foster the next generation of country music performers.

The facility opened in 2013 and has classrooms, children's interactive exhibits and an instrument room.

The Bad Blood singer wore a cute black and white checked dress with fitted waist and slim spaghetti straps for the meet and greet that thrilled the local youngsters.

Meanwhile, Taylor and Tom, 35, were spotted on a romantic dinner date at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in Nashville where they stepped out in matching dark ensembles.

The new couple sent the internet into a frenzy when photos of them kissing on a beach emerged last week, with many speculating that the photos had been staged for publicity.

But the pair have been inseparable since news of their relationship broke and the parental approval was clearly something Taylor wanted to get, so soon after her split from previous boyfriend Calvin Harris.

Go for gingham in a dress by The Reformation

Summer is finally here so we suppose we'd better start thinking about pretty little sun dresses and a new aesthetic for the new season.

And who better to look to for inspiration than Taylor Swift? The pop starlet is definitely all about a feminine and ladylike look and this cute mini she was spotted in yesterday is a great option for the warmer months of the year.

By The Reformation, it's a sweet A-line cut with slinky spaghetti straps and we love the black and white gingham checks. It's ideal for a day in the park, on the beach or sightseeing on holiday so why not click (right) to snap it up now?

And you can feel good about yourself while you shop too, as all the Reformation's designs are made from recycled fabric so you'll be doing your bit for eco fashion. Or check out (see what we did there?) our edit of gingham frocks below.
