It’s Christmas in Katie Holmes’ closet too.
Katie Holmes’ style is sometimes out of this world. We see her demonstrating in square-toed shoes—one of the biggest footwear trends for this autumn-winter 2024/25—or appearing (literally) in her pajamas on the streets of New York before dazzling with a very elegant look on a television show. Three examples that are more than enough to demonstrate her versatility when it comes to dressing, since her sense of style lies in this ability to adapt to circumstances (and trends, of course), which underlines her power as a great exponent of current fashion.
Being the chameleon that she is, Holmes was overcome with the Christmas spirit on December 22, reflecting this feeling through the color of her accessories. A deep red dyed her voluminous beret and scarf as she strolled around the Barrymore Theater on Broadway, the stage where she is currently starring in Our Town. Along with these crimson accessories, the actor prepared for her next performance with a venti-sized coffee and cell phone in hand, and also protected herself from the cold with a short charcoal gray coat and unexpected barrel jeans in a mustard tone.
But what stood out the most about the whole look was none of these elements. As we well know, for a few seasons now, ballerina flats have become more important than ever, and Katie Holmes is not giving them up in these cold months. Instead, Holmes brings us the ultimate tip for combining them: choose a good pair of socks (just like we would with our favorite loafers). Specifically, the star of Dawson’s Creek opted for a white pair of ribbed socks to create even more contrast with her ballerina flats, also red, and thus achieve a very cozy look.
Last spring, red ballet flats were already considered the perfect shoe to add a touch of color, but the truth is that no season that can resist this design. Whether in the months when the sun bathes our skin or now, in the middle of the Christmas season, this shoe design brightens up any outfit—and the actor’s latest effortless look is the best example to prove it. The style honors go directly to you, Katie.
