It's actually starting to feel like fall in NYC, which is great news for us, because with that comes lots of new outfit ideas to copy. Case in point: Katie Holmes was just out downtown wearing a chic, easy fall outfit that's popular year after year. While she usually wears loose, baggy jeans, this time she went for a sleeker pair of skinny jeans, which she paired with a sweater and the most perfect boots to wear with skinny jeans.
The boot style in question is knee-high boots, which have really had a moment over the past couple of years, but are also a classic that never goes out. It's best to opt for a pair with a loose enough shaft to fit over your jeans comfortably, like Holmes' Khaite pair. Want a similar style to wear with your skinny jeans?
Keep scrolling for outfit inspiration via Katie Holmes and to shop 14 pairs of knee-high boots that are just right with skinny jeans.
