All of my favorite New York City It girls saw the 60°F forecast this week and decided it was time to join the spring style scene. First, Gigi Hadid was spotted in the soft loafers trend; then, Jennifer Lawrence elevated a Beatles band tee with an Hermès bag. My holy trinity of fashionable New Yorkers wasn't complete until Katie Holmes stepped out on April 9. And oh, did she deliver.

The cropped hem on the latter showcased the real star of her outfit: her grommeted Miu Miu Mary Janes, which are familiar to pretty much every fashion girl who's had them on her mood board since they first debuted on the brand's Spring 2016 runway.
