Katie Holmes' recent ensemble exemplifies smart-casual fashion, and it's a style we plan to repeatedly adopt.
In the world of fashion, trends come and go, but some styles stand the test of time. One such trend that's making a comeback for 2025 is the barrel leg jeans, and who better to set the trend than actress Katie Holmes?
Recently spotted in New York, Holmes donned a pair of barrel leg jeans, pairing them with a fitted black roll neck and a navy cropped jacket. The outfit was simple yet stylish, and it's easy to see why barrel leg jeans are universally flattering.
These jeans fit loose across both the thigh and calf before tapering at the ankle, providing a flattering silhouette for all body types. To elongate the legs, heeled boots are recommended, while white sneakers look great with cropped barrel leg jeans for a more casual look.
Holmes elevated her outfit with three easy accessories: a stylish patent leather bag, dramatic black chandelier earrings, and a classic black leather belt. The belt not only acts as a finishing touch but also creates a polished and pulled-together aesthetic. It also serves as an optical slimming illusion, drawing the eye to the narrowest point of the body.
To style barrel leg jeans, it's best to wear fitted items on the upper half. A boucle jacket is a timeless addition to a woman's wardrobe and can dress up an outfit. Fine knits are recommended to prevent overheating, and a roll neck knit is suitable for layering under jackets or dresses as temperatures drop.
If you're looking to recreate Holmes' outfit, affordable barrel leg jeans that resemble her designer denim from Re/Done are available. For a chic fall outfit, consider pairing two-toned jeans with primary-coloured items like yellow and red, as Holmes did with an oversized butter-yellow button-down shirt, a cherry-red handbag, and matching cherry-red flats.
To add instant drama to basic jeans and white tee outfits, consider beaded chandelier earrings from Isabel Marant. And don't forget the classic black leather and gold hardware belt from Favorite Daughter, a perfect finishing touch to blue jeans outfits.
