If you've ever strolled through the bustling streets of New York during the crisp fall and winter months, you might have noticed New Yorkers' affinity for black attire, especially boots. This season, however, there's a delightful shift, and New York trendsetters like Katie Holmes are opting for warmer, earthier tones. The hue I'm talking about is brown.
Just yesterday, Holmes was seen in New York City fully embracing the brown-boot trend. She styled her lug-sole ankle boots with straight-leg jeans and an embroidered crewneck sweater layered over a crisp white button-down shirt, all while carrying a stylish tan tote bag. Her choice seems to not be a solitary one. Numerous fashion people across Manhattan are donning brown boots, artfully combining them with denim and cozy sweaters for a chic yet relaxed look.
If this footwear trend has piqued your interest and you're eager to find a pair, keep scrolling to discover how Holmes and other fashion-forward New Yorkers are styling their brown boots.
