Women who feverishly track Katie Holmes's street style could describe why they love her everyday outfits a million ways. She's "effortless" when she mixes business casual separates and Birkenstocks; she's "a blueprint" even in basics like a button-down and jeans. Ask Holmes to define what makes her style so aspirational, and she might just say it's the simplicity.
"I don't like to have a lot of stuff," Holmes tells me on a morning in early May, dressed in a casual T-shirt and baggy jeans with pair of wedge sandals peeking out from underneath. "I just like to be able to have pieces that I like and that are just normal, you know?"
