Katie Holmes has long been a style icon for effortless, understated chic, and her wardrobe is often filled with pieces that look as though they were picked straight from a dream collaboration between comfort and elegance. She’s not afraid to storm the streets of New York City in an incredible outfit every day and has become a favorite among Who What Wear readers for inspo. I decided to take a moment to step into her shoes and take a walk through Shopbop, and I’m not talking about the Toteme boots she just stepped out in. Today, we’re playing stylist. I am on a mission to find the items that will channel her personal style and deliver that information directly to you
From sleek basics to elevated layers, each piece I ended up finding feels like a love letter to Katie’s pared-back yet intentional style. If you’ve been searching for clothing that feels simultaneously luxurious and low-maintenance, these are the pieces that will make you feel like you’re stepping out of a street-style photo with the same grace and ease as one of her iconic looks.
