Katie Holmes is always ahead of the curve. Her closet is full of new and emerging silhouettes, like rising it sneakers and even divisive overalls, but occasionally, the actress likes to dust off old trends and make them feel new again. In her latest street style sighting on Friday, Aug. 23, she did just that, putting an unexpected spin on one of 2010's hottest looks.
Holmes kicked off her weekend with a stroll around New York City. Her outfit for the afternoon included a breezy midi skirt and a light-wash button-up shirt. At first glance, her top appears to be denim, but after a closer look, it seems she revived 2010's lightweight chambray, instead. Largely inspired by the Pinterest fashion boom, the style was massively popular in its heyday, but has since fallen to the wayside.
Holmes, however, made the look feel modern—she loosely buttoned up the oversized top for an effortless, casual vibe.
Katie Holmes re-introduced the 2010s-favorite chambray, pairing the faux denim top with a teal skirt and black ballerina slippers.
The Dawson's Creek alum coordinated her chambray shirt with a flowy, teal midi skirt. She kept to her regular rotation of accessories, adding large, burgundy sunglasses from Vada and her tan Khaite maxi tote bag.
Over the past week, Holmes has ditched her sneakers for ballet flats on several occasions, wearing a certain plum-colored shoe for several days in a row. For this look, however, she swapped them out for her favorite black leather ballerina slippers.
Denim has long been a closet mainstay for Holmes. She has had her fair share of striking blue jean looks this year, from chic Canadian tuxedos to J.Lo-approved wide-leg pants and so much more. Since traditional denim isn't the most warm weather-friendly style, her chambray top is a clever compromise. Well played, Katie.
