Taylor Swift steps out for lunch with BFF Emma Stone at Carette Cafe on Vosges Place on Tuesday afternoon (October 2) in Paris, France. 

After lunching, Taylor, 22, did some solo shopping at the Ralph Lauren store on Saint Germain des Près. 

Taylor was just announced as a performer at the 2012 EMA Awards, THR reports. 

“I’ve always wanted to go to the EMA, because you hear about the spectacle of it, and how everyone just goes all out for their performances.  To be nominated for five EMAs was the most exciting feeling, and I was absolutely blown away.  I can’t wait to be there this year and perform on the show,” she shared in a statement. 

FYI: Taylor is also pictured filming a few new scenes for her “Begin Again” video in a park.
