Taylor Swift is currently in the middle of her "1989" concert tour, but on Tuesday, Aug. 11, she was seen enjoying some time off with her boyfriend, Calvin Harris. 

Entertainment Tonight reports that the couple went on a date at the Giorgio Baldi restaurant in Santa Monica, Los Angeles on Tuesday. They were photographed hand in hand while leaving the restaurant. For their outing, Swift was dressed in a pale blue skirt and a white sleeveless crop top. She accessorized the look with cream satin shoes with cat faces on the toes and a beige bag. Meanwhile, Harris donned dark pants and a grey sweater for their date. 

According to the website, the couple appeared to be very affectionate with one another, and at one point, they were reportedly spotted kissing across the table. After dinner, the pair reportedly headed to the EDM DJ's Hollywood Hills home. 

The dinner date came after the 25-year-old singer shot down rumors that she was buying a 16th century castle in Scotland to be near Harris and his family. On Tuesday, the pop star took to Twitter and quoted a line from her song, "New Romantics." 

She wrote, "'Cause baby I could build a castle out of all the bricks they threw at me- a line from New Romantics But I'm not actually buying a castle." 

Swift and Harris were introduced at this year's BRIT Awards and have been dating since March. The two made their first appearance as a couple at the Billboard Music Awards and have also posted pictures of each other on social media. Last month, the two spent the Fourth of July weekend at the "Style" singer's Rhode Island mansion with a group of their friends including Gigi Hadid and Joe Jonas, among others. 

In a recent interview with KIIS FM, Harris said that their relationship is going "absolutely fantastic" and noted how the media would "make something up" if they weren't seen together publicly for a while. Despite being constantly scrutinized by the press, the "Summer" hitmaker said that he's very happy with his girlfriend.

"For me it could be a lot worse, and I'd still be, like, insanely happy with her so I'm good with it," he said.
