There are certain celebrities we look to when we want to know which denim trends are cool. And the endorsement of a trend by an influential celeb such as Katie Holmes is a great place to start. As an NYC dweller who loves to walk around her city, Holmes is out and about being photographed a lot. This is probably annoying for her, but we're always happy to see what she's wearing.
Speaking of, Holmes wears jeans a lot, and they're hardly ever skinny jeans. She typically opts for styles that are a little fresher. Over the past year, we've spotted her in wide-leg, flare, and slouchy, low-rise styles, to name a few. But the latest style she's been wearing in and around NYC is utility jeans. This straight-leg style is a great one if you prefer for your jeans to be a little polished. Holmes paired her jeans with a white tank top, a tote bag, and ankle boots, proving simple is good when it comes to utility-jeans outfits.
