Katie Holmes Wore the Perfect Jeans Outfit For Hot Weather

Say hello to Katie Holmes and her epic abs, folks. It's officially July, which means it's hot out there. If you've ever been to New York City in July, you really know the meaning of summer heat, but some of us just love to wear jeans, no matter the season. One of those people appears to be Katie Holmes, who just wore a cool straight-leg pair for a stroll around the city, and an ab-baring crop top.
So what about this outfit makes it "perfect for hot weather"? Basically, she kept it simple: the breezy cotton crop top with white sneakers, a tote, and a mask. The crop top in question is from Ulla Johnson and it's 50% off at Net-a-Porter (with every size still in stock, FYI). I get that Holmes is showing more midriff than you may be comfortable with, but not to worry—you can always wear higher-waisted jeans or a longer, equally breezy top. Keep scrolling to shop her outfit, as well as more lightweight tops to wear with jeans this summer.
On Katie Holmes: Ulla Johnson Zola Top ($198); Reformation jeans; Common Projects Original Achilles Leather Sneakers ($415); Khaite Envelope Pleat Medium Leather Tote ($1800)
