Katie Holmes’s best fashion moments happen when she’s getting around New York City. Her first major en route style moment came when she hailed a cab in a Khaite cashmere bra and cardigan set which ever-so-slightly slid off the shoulder. Another occurred yesterday when she was spotted on an electrical Citi Bike with her beau, the chef Emilio Vitolo Jr. Holmes, who has always had a girl-next-girl casual style aesthetic, wore a simple autumnal plaid shirt and a pair of faded jeans. But the actress always has had a knack for elevating her approachable outfits, and this time she opted for a pair of Gucci loafers. A stellar outfit repeater, she was spotted in the pair last February.
Of course, Holmes accessorized this laid-back look with, well, a blazing blue electric Citi Bike. Biking has long been the language of love with celebrities. Leonardo Dicaprio, for instance, has a history of biking with his girlfriends and flings. In a way, a celebrity riding a bike with a significant other is a public and down-to-earth pronouncement of love. It says: “We’re just like everyone else, and also need to get from point A to B, but together!” And if you’re Katie Holmes, it also happens to be a great way to showcase your high-low styling tricks.
