In my opinion, Katie Holmes’ style really shines when she leads with pieces that look comfortable and relaxed. Lending an air of effortlessness to her super-chic picks, the actor’s off-duty looks trump her red carpet successes, in my opinion. Speaking to her innate ability to hone a chic ensemble, Holmes took to the streets of New York this week wearing a simple outfit that looked both elevated and unbothered.
Selecting a sky blue button-down and light cream wide-leg trousers—both of which have been cropping up all over the market recently—Holmes constructed a fresh spring-ready look that played into her naturally laid-back energy.
Selecting these key pieces in a relaxed fit, Holmes injected a polished twist through her carefully curated accessories. Opting for chunky sandals with a buckle, she steered the look away from feeling too heavy. She then accessorised her outfit with dainty gold necklaces, tortoiseshell-frame sunglasses and a slouchy leather shoulder bag.
Whilst Holmes’ blue and cream colour combination might not jump out to you as anything to write home about, it’s quietly everywhere. Pale blue was one of the biggest colour trends of the S/S 24 shows, appearing in collections including Stella McCartney and Fendi, and the shade was styled on repeat with soft creams and bright whites.
Offering a fresh spring colour palette update that makes dressing for the warmer season so easy, the blue Oxford shirt and cream trousers pairing is a styling combination that fashion editors and influencers come back to as a sort of low-effort uniform.
Comfortable, polished and oh-so-easy to replicate at home, read on shop Holmes’ look along with an edit of the best blue button-downs and cream trousers to discover this season.
