You may have noticed that, as of late, Hollywood's jeans seem to be getting baggier and looser by the minute. Well, some celebs like Katie Holmes are going against this season's favorite denim trend in exchange for a classic style that's been around for decades: straight-leg jeans.

Just last week, the actress was seen in New York City looking as cool as ever in a plaid shirt, a leather jacket, and white New Balance sneakers. In an effort to combine edgy and casual, she paired the look with straight-leg jeans, which stars like Jennifer Garner and Kate Middleton have been wearing for years.

And if you're in need of a new pair, we found so many chic and customer-loved options at Madewell, Amazon, Nordstrom, and Gilt starting at $26.
