Katie Holmes Styles Closet Staples in Classic Ballet Flats and a Cozy Argyle Sweater at the US Open 2023

Katie Holmes stopped by the 2023 U.S. Open yesterday in New York. Holmes watched Coco Gauff defeat Belgian tennis player Elise Mertens.

The “Dawson’s Creek” star attended the sports event in a pair of black ballet flats. The dancerly pair featured glossy patent leather uppers with unique square toes with small dainty bows. The flats sat atop short square heels made of wood that gave the star a subtle lift. The shoe gave Holmes’ look a timeless quality, given the classic nature of the silhouette. Ballet flats are a go-to style for many celebrities, Holmes included.
