Katie Holmes rocks grey roots with a messy side-swept braid for a Chanel event in NYC

Only Katie Holmes could rock grey roots and a messy side-swept braid and still look like the chicest person in the room.

Of course, it helps that she was wearing Chanel for the brand’s dinner to celebrate the opening of its Watches and Fine Jewellery boutique in New York.

Katie looked impossibly elegant wearing a chic navy cardigan and trouser combo with two-tone heels and a lariat-style diamond necklace that hung long on her decolletage. To be fair it’s how most of us look on an average Wednesday night (in our dreams, maybe).

Katie Holmes is a bit of an enigma – she wears a ring in her nose, never looks crumpled no matter how slouchy her clothes are, and starts random trends like wearing a bralette under a cardi.

If we were to sum up her fashion status it would be this, she is the most Parisian person living in New York, from her ballet shoes to her scarves and air-dried hair. Now she’s added grey roots to her look, we can’t help but feel that Katie Holmes lives by her own style guide and the rest of us are just following along.

It’s not just that Katie Holmes is trendy, she starts trends, and mostly by just going about her day. Her latest look for the Chanel would have been decided by a stylist we’re sure and that Lion Solaire de Chanel diamond neckpiece would be on loan from the designer brand for the occasion. We won’t be doing a ‘steal her style’ on that piece of jewellery, Chanel Fine Jewellery prices tend to be POA, or, in other words, mortgage money.

What we will tip as a trend is her cardigan. We are in a season of structured cardigans, most with metallic buttons. It’s very Chanel and classic, but across the high street, many versions that are popping up are inspired by this French Girl look. Best for value are Marks & Spencer, Zara and Dunnes but if you have the cash to splash take a look at Parisian brands Sézane and Rouje for quality and timelessness.
