Katie Holmes Exudes Girl-Next-Door Vibes in a Cherry Red Blouse and Grandpa Shoes

The Gist

• Katie Holmes continued her Joey Potter-inspired style streak in New York City on July 28, stepping out with Happy Hours co-star Joshua Jackson in a girl-next-door look.

• The Dawson’s Creek alum paired a red cottagecore blouse with a braid and unexpected footwear.

• Just days earlier, Holmes opted for another boho-meets-officewear outfit.

Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson are busy filming their new project Happy Hours, but the former on-screen and off-screen couple were dead ringers for their Dawson’s Creek characters while on set together on Monday, July 28. Holmes continued to lean into a very Joey Potter-coded girl-next-door aesthetic for her latest outing, laughing and bantering with Jackson while wearing a cherry red sweetheart blouse.

In contrast to Holmes’s real-life style, which marries rich mom staples with whimsical art teacher-coded pieces, the Logan Lucky actress has seemingly dusted off her Capeside wardrobe for her latest role. Denim overalls, cozy, lumberjack-coded outerwear, and airy boho tops effortlessly co-exist with pleated office slacks, mom-on-the-go baseball caps, and slouchy cowboy boots—and Holmes’s latest outfit is no exception.

Filming against the backdrop of a Brooklyn brownstone, the star could be seen giggling at something Jackson had said as she filmed in a red sleeveless sweetheart blouse. The ‘70s-inspired cottagecore piece featured light pink scalloped detailing along the front, matching pink lace, and buttons running down the middle. In a nod to her go-to contrasting style, Holmes paired the look with baggy dark brown pants and dark brown menswear-inspired loafers. She wore her golden-woven brown hair in an effortless braid styled down her back with minimal glam, giving the look a girl-next-door seal of approval.

Meanwhile, Jackson traded jokes with Holmes wearing a mid-wash denim dress shirt paired with dark slacks and tennis shoes.

Holmes’s latest look features some similarities to the blouse and slacks combo she sported while filming in New York City last week. For that outing, the star opted for a dainty white sleeveless blouse covered in tiny floral designs, which she unbuttoned at the bottom to show a sliver of skin. The romantic top contrasted against her oversized blue slacks and her black ballet flats (a real-life Holmes favorite), as well as a denim shirt that she styled tied around her waist.
