High heels are out: Katie Holmes proves this comfier style is way more chic

When she's not plying her trade on a movie set or treading the boards on the Great White Way, Katie Holmes is legit style influencer. She sits front row at the top fashion shows and has been known to serve looks while walking the streets of New York City. Earlier this year, folks were fangirling her go-to Mansur Gavriel tote, but now we've turned our attention to her feet, for La Holmes was recently spotted wearing a pair of stunning gold mules that have us inspired to ditch high heels in favor of a more modest — and comfortable! — kitten heel.
The shoes in question? Franco Sarto Marlina Mules, and shockingly, they don't cost a fortune. The pointy-toed slides come in five colors and feature a cool cage pattern that makes them a bit more visually interesting than plain pumps. They're available in both medium and wide widths in sizes 5-13.
Though $115 is way more affordable than most celeb-sported shoes, it's still a bit steep for those of us who don't get paid millions of dollars to act in movies. If you're inspired by Holmes to kick your stilettos to the curb and try on kitten heels for size, check out the more affordable picks we're loving below.

Taylor Swift Looked So 1989-Coded on Date Night With Travis Kelce

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." As a long-time observer of her style, I've come to recognize all the elements that define a quintessential Taylor Swift outfit. First, she loves a good red lip. Then there's her other signature: a quality corset. Seriously, she loves a tight, form-fitting top—especially on date nights. Being that she spent her days on the Eras Tour twirling around in bodysuits and Louboutins it makes sense that this has become part of her regular wardrobe DNA. And during her latest Friday night outing with Travis Kelce in New York City, Swift was spotted by fans leaving her dinner date at Torrisi wearing a sweet cornflower blue corset top from Reformation (it retails at $168). A fan of the preppy aesthetic, she paired her shirt with a white pleated mini skirt that had plenty of collegiate charm (and could also double as part of her next pickleball outfit). On her feet, she wore white pointed-toe pumps and accessorized with the Mini Cloud Clutch from Mansur Gavriel (which presumably held said red lipstick). Together, the ensemble could have very well been plucked straight from her 1989 era. As for Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs player wore an equally as light and breezy outfit of a white t-shirt with the words 'US Soccer' printed at the front and white shorts. The couple has been keeping a low profile since the Eras Tour came to a close late last year and Kelce's 2024 NFL season wrapped up with the Super Bowl in February. Still, they've been spotted enjoying each other's company and making the most of their time off, from plenty of dinner date nights to, most recently, a Stanley Cup game in Florida.

'Dawson's Creek' creator Kevin Williamson on possible reboot

Dawson may cry again. 'Dawson's Creek' aired on The WB from 1998 to 2003, created by Kevin Williamson – and in this age of endless spinoffs and reboots, it's possible that it could come back. 'Not in television form. I think there's other ways that [a 'Dawson's Creek' revival] can come to fruition,' Williamson, 60, exclusively told The Post. 'But I'm not so sure… I feel complete. I feel like we told the story.'

He added, 'I feel that's a box, and it's exactly where it should be.' 'Dawson's Creek' was set in the fictional town of Capeside, Mass. The cult classic ran for six seasons, following the lives of aspiring teenage filmmaker Dawson Leery (James Van Der Beek), his best friend Joey (Katie Holmes), his other underachiever friend, Pacey (Joshua Jackson), and the new girl from the big city, Jen (Michelle Williams). 9 James Van Der Beek in 'Dawson's Creek.'

'That cast was terrific. It's hard to stumble upon a cast like that.' Williamson, who is now working on the Netflix crime drama 'The Waterfront,' isn't opposed to the show getting another life. 'But I'm not so sure… I feel complete. I feel like we told the story,' he explained. 'If someone else comes along with a great idea and can just freshen it up and do something new to it… I mean, I'll be the first one there to watch it. But I don't think that probably it will be me.'

Katie Holmes Kept It Simple—And Totally Stylish—at the 2025 Tony Awards

Whether she's walking the streets of NYC in metallic mules or turning heads in monochrome looks and statement bows, she gets it.

She paired it with a soft petal-pink satin skirt, intricately embellished with amber and silver crystals. The finishing touches? Pearl satin platform heels and an earful of sparkling of studded jewelry. Sean Zanni/Patrick McMullan via Getty Images Her beauty look was just as effortlessly chic. Hairstylist Creighton Bowman pulled her hair back into a loose low bun with a middle part—elegant, understated and totally in line with the vibe. Makeup artist Genevieve Herr kept things fresh and minimal, letting Holmes's natural glow shine through.

With roles in All My Sons (2008), Dead Accounts (2012) and most recently the 2024 revival of Our Town, her theater roots run deep.
