You may know Taylor King from her rockin’ red-and-black checkered style, Indiana pride (go Hoosiers!) and her Instagram “juicy polls” — which she spun into a podcast with the same name.

“TK” for short, King has nearly 120,000 subscribers and often uses the phrase “forking” in masterful ways — example: she’s a forking good content creator.

“The mission of my channel is to make someone laugh and to motivate them. I want to make someone get out of bed and conquer their day,” King, 24, told The Post. “I was a cheerleader growing up and grew up in a sports-oriented family so I’ve always been in the grinding, lets-get-that-bread environment.”

With hustling ingrained in her mentality, she kickstarted her career in content creation by working for Alisha Marie, who has a wealthy subscriber base of more than 8 million. She used her CBS internship experience to bring filming, producing and brainstorming to life.

“I met Alisha through Kenzie Elizabeth, who was my first friend in LA,” she said. “I didn’t have a place to stay for 2018 Coachella and I said, ‘Fork, what do I do,’ so Alisha allowed me to sleep in her room. They grew closer at Coachella, which she named the “Influencer Olympics,” and eventually worked for Alisha full time.

“I was doing a little bit of editing as her ‘preditor,’ a producer and editor,” she said. “Working for Alisha gave me confidence in myself and my work. It was nerve-wracking because I knew people were going to be watching my videos, but since I was filming for her, I had the experience under my belt.”

When quarantine hit, she hit the ground running.

The LA-based creator also has a podcast, “TK’s Juicy Pod,” which sprouted from her love for Instagram polls and stories. She asked her followers everything, from the lighthearted pizza versus pasta debate to more serious topics, like divorce and current events.

“I was bored one Christmas break and I went all out with my Instagram stories,” she said. “I even had some of my guy friends call me ‘Story’ and say, ‘What’s up, Story?,’ just because I was that normal girl who cared about Instagram.”

Eventually, she noticed hotter-than-hot guys were voting and keeping the engagement up, so she started asking “girl talk” questions, like if guys should pay on the first date and if girls should immediately respond to a guy’s message, in a hetero relationship.

“That’s when the juicy questions came into play,” she explained.

Keeping things light and juicy, she shared all the products with a little bit of flair to shop, save and bookmark. Find her go-to sultry red lip colors and sporty chic styles, alongside other spicy picks.

Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm, $22

Benefit Cosmetics Precisely, My Brow Pencil Waterproof Eyebrow Definer, $24

“Jared, the brow expert at Benefit, taught me the best way to do my brows with this pencil,” King said. “If you press the pencil against a flat surface to sharpen it, you get fine, hairlike strokes when applying it that has transformed my brows.”

Fenty Beauty by Rihanna Gloss Bomb Universal Lip Luminizer, $19

“I love the Fenty Gloss Bomb for natural looks,” she said. “I like to switch it out with my Buxom gloss, too.”

Yves Saint Laurent ‘Vivid Pure Red’ Water Stain Lip Stain, $38

“The YSL Water Stain Lip Stain is so iconic — I love this red,” she said. “I don’t like a matte lip, so I like this as a base because it doesn’t come off, it makes my lips nice and juicy and is one item I splurge on that’s worth it.”

Raw & Rebellious ‘Disco Cowgirl’ Print, starting at $20

“My prints, in collaboration with Raw & Rebellious, add so much fun and juicy flavor to any room,” she said. “Life is short, so you may as well have a bold, spicy and flavorful statement to your room.”

Agolde 90s Straight-Leg Jeans, $198

“The Agolde 90s High-Rise Jeans are my favorite,” she said. “I love them because they fit like a glove and are tight and flattering but I can still eat a whole pizza in them.”

Good American Leather Good Boy Pants, $189

“Everyone needs the Good American Leather Good Boy Pants in their life,” she said. “I swear by them because they’re way less constricting and the material doesn’t stick and suction-cup to you, almost like an athletic material. And, they have an adorable slit at the bottom to show off your shoes.”

“I love my basketball hoop,” King said. “It adds some juicy flair to your room and makes your space so unique.”

UBeesize 51″ Extendable Tripod Stand with Bluetooth Remote, $23.99

The Skinny Confidential Hot Mess Ice Roller, $69

“The Skinny Confidential ice roller is my new go-to gift and it’s great,” she said. “It’s better than the Amazon ones and it cures my hangovers, too.”

LaCie Rugged Mini 2TB External Hard Drive, $89.99 (originally $109.99)

“If you’re a content creator and you don’t have a LaCie Hard Drive, you’re dumb,” she said. “On the real, you need to have all your content backed up and this one holds four or five terabytes — but, they make smaller ones, too.”

Quay Totally Buggin Sunglasses, $39 (originally $55)

“These have been my go-to shades for the summer,” she said. “They’re the perfect medium size and I love the way they frame my face. The price point is epic, too.”

Ann Creek Women’s ‘Claremont’ Texture Patch Boots, $75.90

“Cowgirl boots have been a staple in my closet,” King said. “They’re adorable with dresses and rompers and bring out my midwestern roots.

This pair from Amazon is one of her favorites because of how affordable and comfy they are. “I got them for Coachella a few years ago and have worn them like crazy ever since,” she adds.

Not to mention, she loves a pink cowgirl hat to match.
