Holmes and Yang

Katie Holmes headed to New York Fashion Week looking sleek as ever in a black leather Holmes & Yang blazer and black skinny jeans. The actress-slash-designer wore a white camisole underneath her jacket, then accessorized via a Lanvin pearl and ribbon necklace, round tortoise sunglasses, a black Valextra for Holmes & Yang satchel ($4,350), and these Dries van Noten sequin slingback pumps ($468). What's great about Katie's latest look is that it can be re-created for work and for the weekend. Shop similar pieces, including her exact pumps, to get her polished look.
