6 Ways to Style Skinnies and Boots Like Katie Holmes, J.Lo, and More
To state the obvious, skinny jeans and boots go together like peanut butter and jelly. It's a tried-and-true outfit combo for fall, but if you're anything like me, you can easily fall into a rut and rely on the same look over and over. My go-to is a white tee, dark skinny jeans, and black ankle boots—the same shoes I've pulled out every fall for the last 4 years. (Note to self: perhaps it's time for a fresh pair?)
Many of the celebrity-inspired outfits below are composed of pieces you may already own. Kaia Gerber, for instance, loves a color-coordinated look and recently wore a black leather jacket, sweater, bag, and boots with blue jeans for a polished ensemble. Scroll down for 6 ways to style skinny jeans and boots like Katie Holmes, Jennifer Lopez, Kate Middleton, and more.
On Kaia Gerber: Frye Harness 12R boots
A black sweater is perhaps the most versatile fall piece you could own.
On Mindy Kaling: Ugg boots
There's a reason Levi's is still going strong after so many decades: the jeans are just that good.
Ugg just launched these shortened versions of its most popular boots. The lower shaft makes these shoes even more versatile than normal.
On Kate Middleton: Dubarry of Ireland jacket; Zara jeans; Penelope Chilvers boots
On Jennifer Lopez: Coach x Jean-Michel Basquiat Trench Coat ($2200); Jennifer Fisher earrings
No, I didn't make a typo. This trench coat really is marked down from $149 to just $20.
On Katie Holmes: Staud boots
On Kamala Harris: Timberland boots
If boots aren't your thing, you should absolutely consider these Timberland sneakers.
Next, the 4 fall trends this Parisian mom borrows from her influencer daughters.
Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
