The 36-year-old sports media star dazzled her adoring fans with a post-show photo on her Instagram on Monday.
Joy Taylor, co-host of the popular sports talk show “Speak,” dazzled her legions of adoring fans this week with a striking Instagram post highlighting her head-to-toe designer look. The 36-year-old media starlet, known for her bold takes and even bolder fashion choices, posed coquettishly in her FS1 dressing room, offering followers an exclusive peek into her pre-show glam routine. Taylor’s 37th birthday is on Wednesday.
Ms. Taylor smoldered in a body-skimming Hervé Léger bandage dress in the deepest onyx, turning subtly to display the frock’s open back and curve-caressing fit. Ever the shoe connoisseur, she paired the look with a skyscraping pair of Saint Laurent leather pumps boasting a thin stiletto heel and sharp, structural toe. With her caramel-hued locks worn in soft waves and a ruby pout providing the only pop of color, Ms. Taylor proved herself a masterclass in less-is-more chic.
The post comes on the heels of Ms. Taylor’s early 37th birthday celebrations this past weekend. She posted a series of photos from Tatel Beverly Hills, where she rang in the milestone with close friends and family. Clad in an ivory Galvan cut-out sheath and metallic Jimmy Choos, with her signature golden glow on full display, Ms. Taylor was again the epitome of modern elegance.
As the younger sister of NFL icon Jason Taylor, Joy credits her style savvy to attending Dolphins games from a young age and people watching on the sidelines. “I learned what worked and what didn’t from an early age,” she told Harper’s BAZAAR. “Plus, living in Miami you develop an appreciation for glamour.”
Since joining “Speak” in September 2022 alongside co-hosts Emmanuel Acho and LeSean McCoy, Ms. Taylor has attracted a legion of admirers both for her sports acumen and trendsetting looks, amassing over 700,000 Instagram followers. Whether dazzling in David Koma on-set or commanding attention in Christian Siriano at industry events, her fashion influence continues to grow. She often delights her 724,000 Instagram followers with an inside look at her lavish lifestyle and vacations.
But for this rising style star, it always comes back to the shoes. “I just feel more powerful in heels,” she confessed. “They have a transformative quality.” With envy-inducing ensembles like this latest curve-accentuating LBD and leg-lengthening platforms, it’s easy to see why Joy Taylor has become the podium we can’t take our eyes off of. The question remains: what will she wow us with next?
