Katie Holmes had all the makings of a perfect date night — a plus-one, a gorgeous gown, and one seriously good handbag. The actress attended the American Ballet Theatre's fall gala in New York City with boyfriend Jason Bard Yarmosky, and her playful accessory might just be our favorite part of the whole look.
For the occasion, Katie wore a rich teal gown from Kallmeyer's Resort 2027 collection, featuring a high neckline, long sleeves, and a fitted bodice that flowed into a dramatic, floor-length skirt. She completed the look with black pointed-toe heels, delicate drop earrings, and a loosely swept-back updo with face-framing strands.
By her side, Jason looked dapper in a navy double-breasted suit worn over a black shirt. The couple certainly made a stylish pair, but the dress was only the beginning of Katie’s look.
The actress traded a traditional evening clutch for the Simon Miller Tassel Boxy Clutch, a $375 satin handbag with long, swishy fringe. The structured silhouette give it a timeless feel, while the tassels add unexpected drama.
Katie’s exact bag is available to shop and is still in stock, but you don't have to splurge to try the trend. We've found similar, more budget-friendly fringe handbags that are just as ready for a night out.
With holiday party invitations already rolling in, I, for one, am taking notes. Instead of splurging on a new outfit for every occasion, a fringe clutch can make your decade-old little black dress feel brand-new, add texture to a tailored pantsuit, or bring movement to a sleek satin skirt.
