If someone told Katie Holmes to wear leggings but make them look very chic, she certainly understood the assignment. Holmes was photographed heading from the Broadway theater where she's performing in Our Town to an appearance on The Tonight Show, and yes, she wore black leggings for it.
The specific leggings Holmes wore were black stirrup leggings, which she paired with black pumps with a high sculptural heel. What really made the outfit work was the top she opted to wear: a denim peplum style. The flared bottom of the shirt provided a contrast in proportions (which is one of the best outfit "rules" there is) to the slim-fitting leggings.
