Katie Holmes Wore the Hotly Debated Shoe Style That’s Actually Worth Trying

I’m a shoe-lover, but there are a select number of styles I thought I would never, ever wear. Don’t get me wrong: I’m usually up to try it all, but some silhouettes are just a no-no. For example, sky-high stilettos because, well, they’re just not practical, hiking sandals, because I just don’t like the look on me, and chunky clogs — or, at least, I thought I would never, ever clog it up — but alas, I guess never say never.

Clogs might conjure up memories of your parents working in the garden, and honestly, same. Funnily enough, I’m home right now and my mom is working on her veggie garden wearing — you guessed it — Dansko clogs. But the slip-on shoe has gotten a major glow-up in recent years. Katie Holmes is one celebrity who’s regularly slipped into the chunky, funky silhouette — and she just did it again. 

Holmes was photographed out and about in New York wearing a very mom-ish look that I honestly want to copy right away. Her Big Apple outfit consisted of a high-waisted denim mini skirt, semi-sheer printed tunic blouse with the sleeves rolled up, and last but certainly not least, her go-to brown suede Chloé clogs that surprisingly look really good with that jean skirt — and surprisingly are still available.
