Katie Holmes Just Wore the Flat Shoes French Women Live In
I might not have much in common with Katie Holmes, but we are the same height (5'9"), so I have a feeling she could relate to my never-ending quest to find flats that are actually cute. But tall girls are far from the only people who want the practicality of flats without sacrificing style. French girls such as Leia Sfez and Tamara Mory, for instance, love Chanel's iconic slingback flats, but they can be considerably out of reach for the average shopper. That's why I was excited to see Holmes wearing slingbacks that have the same vibe.
Photographed in New York City, Holmes wore Kate Spade New York Veronica Slingback Flats (£190), which come in four different colours. Holmes paired her white versions with a beautiful butterfly-bedecked dress, also by Kate Spade New York. As we’ve already identified, flat slingback shoes are a footwear favourite amongst French women and will make any outfit you decide to wear them with look elevated and sleek. As well as Holmes's exact flats, I’ve gone a step further to shop the best flat slingback shoes for every budget. Scroll on to see them.

Erin got her start as aBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
