Katie Holmesdid not hesitate to leave the sneakers at home.
TheDawson’s Creekstar was dressed in her spring best while enjoying some warm weather in New York City on Friday. She had on aReformation cardigan, per the brand, and some cropped jeans for a true transitional weather ’fit. And her shoes? She went with apair of powder blue Mary Janes, confirmed to be from ATP Atelier.
Comfortable for commutes and walking, Mary Janes are stylish like preppy pumps (minus the pain), and they’re different from your standard sneakers. They’re also less stuffy and don’t demand a fresh pedicure since your toes stay under wraps. Plus, last year, theywere spotted ona few celebs, includingJennifer Lawrence,Emma Stone,Gigi Hadid, andBella Hadid.
Similarly,ballet flats, have been a recent go-to footwear choice for stars likeMeghan Markleand yes,Holmes as well— but Mary Janes are more functional thanks to the strap across the top. They won’t slip off or come loose, like sandals, when you’re walking. To summarize, they’re the hottest “It” shoe that’s nice on both the feet and eyes.
Rekayla Round-Toe Mary Jane Flat Shoes
Amazon
$38 at Amazon
The Rekayla Round-Toe Mary Jane Flat Shoes are a great starter pair. The black color is more subtle than a bold blue, so they’re easier to style, and,according to one shopperthey “feel like slippers even when wearing them on a cement surface for a long period of time.” The round-toe style also seems less trendy, but rather, more classic.

OnePEOPLE shopping writer once dubbedtheirVivaia Margot Flatsas “pillowy-perfect, bouncy trampolines” for their feet — and these Mary Janes should provide similar results. They have a protective heel pad to beat blisters and can be machine-washed once they start to look a little grimy. This sky-colored pair is like Holmes’ shoes, but thepitaya ginghamandturquoise tropicalwould also stir up your wardrobe.
DV Dolce Vita Mellie Flats
Zappos
$50 at Zappos
The DV Dolce Vita Mellie Flats have a quarter-inch heel, so you don’t feel every bump and crack in the sidewalk, yet they’re still very flat for pain-free arches. There’s also a chunky buckle on the top that looks more expensive than just a piece of elastic or leather, and it also can be tightened or loosened, so you will feel secure.
