Katie Holmes' Wild Patchwork Jeans Are Probably the Most Chaotic Thing She's Ever Worn (Respectfully)

On of Oct. 4, while the rest of us were probably still in our pajamas, Katie Holmes made an early-morning coffee run to Starbucks in New York City wearing a pair of seriously crazy pants. The pants in question were covered in multi-colored patches, for a Mod Podge look that felt endearingly chaotic.

Holmes styled her colorful denim with a semi-sheer black pintuck blouse, a white leather Bevza tote bag, blue velvet Mary Janes from ViBi, and a baseball cap from Peterborough Diner in New Hampshire. Only Holmes (and perhaps Blake Lively) could have pulled this look off.

I have a hunch that good tailoring is to thank here, because the jeans are actually from the men's department. After some sleuthing, the exact pair turned out to be "Monkey Cisco Straight-Leg" jeans from Japanese menswear line Kapital. The exact colorway is called "Crazy El Paso" and is a product of the brand's "Insane Remake" series. Sadly, they're sold-out, apart from some stray pairs you can find on resale sites like The RealReal and Grailed.

Her gauzy black button-up is a favorite on the official Kate Holmes street style lineup. She wore the same style in late August—twice, in fact. The first sighting came on Aug. 20, when the Dawson's Creek star tucked the sheer top into a pair of black trousers. She accessorized the look with burgundy Mansur Gavriel ballet flats, Vada sunglasses, and her favorite camel calfskin tote bag from Khaite.

The following week, on Aug. 29, she wore the shirt again with $1,050 Miu Miu buckled ballerina flats, tapered khaki trousers, oval tortoise shell sunglasses, and the same Khaite tote.

While I've yet to track down a perfect match for the shirt, this shirtdress from Trovata is incredibly similar, right down to the piping and pin-tuck detailing on the bib. You won't even need a pair of crazy pants to complete the look.
