Katie Holmes Created an Easy and Breezy ’Fit with These 2 Closet Staples — Try It from $20

Life’s a breeze. Especially if you want to dress like Katie Holmes.

The actress stepped out in New York City in a spring-ready ’fit that, quite frankly, I can’t wait to copy. Holmes teamed a long, blue-and-white striped button-down shirt with flowy white wide-leg pants. The effect was instantly billowy, easy, and breezy, making it perfect for spring’s warmer days. She completed the relaxed take on the power suit with a white blazer, aviator sunglasses, black sandals, and a structured black tote. 

This isn’t the first time Holmes has shown us how to style a button-down shirt, since she wore a brown striped version with cropped gray sweatpants last August. Celebs like Meghan Markle and Martha Stewart have gotten the striped button-down and wide-leg trousers memo, too.

If you’re still putting together your spring capsule wardrobe, Holmes’s outfit is a great place to start. I rounded up a variety of striped button-down shirts and wide-leg pants on Amazon. The best part? They’re all under $40.

Thefabland Striped Long-Sleeve Shirt

Thick vertical stripes lend a bold flourish to this oversized button-down shirt that hits at mid-thigh on most people. It’s finished with a straight point collar, back seaming, and cuffs that can be rolled up or down. 

Aisew Striped Button-Down Shirt

Take a page out of Holmes’s style book in this blue-and-white striped button-down with three-quarter-length sleeves. It’s earned over 1,500 five-star ratings from shoppers who said it’s “very comfortable” and “can be dressed up or down.”

Lemafer Oversized Button-Down Blouse with Smocked Cuffs

Truth be told, I hardly own any fitted tops; I’m a big fan of more oversized styles. This button-up is right up my alley, thanks to a slouchy fit with a chest patch pocket, straight point collar, and drop sleeves with smocked cuffs.

Vrtige Loose Striped Button-Down Shirt

Striped blue button-downs have tons of celeb fans, including Brooke Shields and Gwyneth Paltrow. I’m loving this oversized version, which has flowy elbow-length sleeves, a five-button front, and vintage-inspired spread collar.

Kocowoo Pleated Wide-Leg Palazzo Pants

I recently spotted Oprah Winfrey in pleated wide-leg trousers, and I’ve been on the lookout for a pair of my own ever since. These ones with double forward pleats and angled pockets fit the bill, and they’re available in sleek white like Holmes wore.

Anrabess Palazzo Capri Pants

Once spring rolls around, I immediately start wearing capri pants, so I can’t wait to add this wide-leg pair to my closet. They’re designed with a smocked waist, deep side patch pockets, and seamed cuffs with side vents. In addition to white like Holmes wore, they come in 14 colors, plus sizes S–XL.

Funyyzo Wide-Leg Pants

With a pleated front and wide legs, these white pants are similar to the ones Holmes wore. They’ve earned more than 4,000 five-star ratings, with shoppers saying the material “flows beautifully,” and they “look expensive.”

Btbfm High-Waisted Palazzo Pants

If you love trousers with super wide legs, try this pair, which is designed with a smocked drawstring waist and angled front pockets. The pants come in white so you can dress like Holmes, plus a variety of other colors and patterns and sizes S–XXL.

Elleven Wide-Leg Flowy Trousers

These wide-leg trousers are crisp, sleek, and polished with their reverse front pleats and subtle wide legs. They come in seven colors including white, black, and light pink, and sizes S–XXL, with short, regular, and long lengths available.
