Ever since she was a teenager on Dawson's Creek, Katie Holmes has been America's sweetheart—and she dresses the part, too. Generally, her style revolves around comfortable shoes, functional tote bags, and laid-back basics that could double as workwear. She's so in-tuned with this style ethos, in fact, she rarely deviates from it, wearing the same outfit combination again and again.
Yesterday, however, Holmes took an unexpected turn onto Punk-Rock Boulevard (sartorially speaking—in reality, she was probably somewhere in the Meatpacking District). While walking the streets of NYC—her usual runway—on Aug. 29, the actor embraced a footwear trend that's nothing short of edgy. She wore Miu Miu's iconic Buckled Leather Ballerina Shoes, a $1,050 splurge most fashion editors only dream of.
