From Birkenstock Clogs to Gucci Loafers, 5 Fall Shoe Styles to Steal from Katie Holmes

When it comes to effortless dressing, Katie Holmes’s style is a constant source of inspiration. Thanks to a closet chock full of elevated jeans, classic dresses, and perfectly tailored suits, she’s a north star for minimalist dressing enthusiasts. What’s the one item that pulls together all of those picture-perfect looks? A great pair of shoes, of course.

Each fall, Holmes continues to lean into her easy-going aesthetic with an enviable collection of comfortable shoes. In her covetable arsenal, you’ll find wear-everywhere Sorel sneakers, which pair well with jeans and a sweater or a long-sleeve knit dress.
