Katie Holmes showed off some big pockets and an even bigger Hermes (hello!) all business-womaned out for some serious shopping at Maxfield's yesterday. Gift giving seems like sort of an art to Katie, so it's no wonder she's in her red power pumps. Sorry, rewind again — that bag is enormous! She could climb into it! (Okay, maybe not, but Suri could.) It makes her look tiny. Chew on that, Posh with her Birkins. Heh. Katie's been hard at work on those gifts, but she's got a load of them covered already. She designed the card and box for a package of Sprinkles cupcakes (her favorites) which they sent to various friends. Being on their Christmas list wouldn't be such a bad gig, eh?

Wow. That bag.. Those pockets!!!
1I love her Roland Mouret "Arial" skirt. The pannier pockets are not that "huge"... why all the fuss?
2looks like a catr chewed off her hair. but it's still better than the wig she was sporting.
3i think it's the bag they are referring to as huge.
4everything about this girl screams "stepford wife" to me..just beyond fake.
Those pockets make her look hippy; NOT a good look.
And, please, that box OK! claims Katie "designed" is the standard gift box from Sprinkles. If picking out a ribbon equates to designing I guess I've "designed" all my Christmas gifts, too. Honestly, the way these celeb-friendly magazines, like People and OK!, kiss this C-list actress' butt is downright embarrassing.
Oh, and her bag scream new money.
5i like her outfit!
6the bag is huge.. she could easily fit TinyTom in that bag
7is it just me or is she totally morphing to posh spice.
8i love her red pumps. the bag is not a bag it's more of a suitcase.
9I get where her look is going but it's less interesting on her. Her Birkin is to die for but a little to big for everyday life. I've always thought that size to be appropriate for traveling. I think it's funny that all these society women and celebrities carry this bag because it symbolizes wealth and class if only they knew and really appreciated the women Hermes named the bag after Jane Birkin who is anything but fussy.
10That was funny pinkberry. She looks like a hag most times. This would be an example.
11mswindang, you read my mind.
12Domo arigato, Mrs. Roboto.
13she never pulls off a look well, there is always something wrong, I don't know what it is. And those pockets are a fashion DON'T hey make even a stick like Katie look hippy.
14conceited
15and shoes clash with bag and ugh - why does she always look like shes saying to herself "i am the greatest thing that ever walked this planet". blah! she thinks shes queen you know what
16How can she go shopping in that outfit? She's trying to look so much older! She's gonna look back one day and wish she enjoyed her 20's a bit more. I like Jennifer Aniston's style so much better she can still wear some nice jeans and rock it!
17Oh and I have to add: Doesn't she look like she walked out of an 80's Addicted to Love video?
18I'm a fan of Katie's new style sense generally, but she does look way too old here.
19She does dress much older than her age, but can you even imagine her life now? She is married to Tom Cruise who is a little weird at times, but he is still Tom Cruise who was sexy as all get out in Cocktail and Mission Impossible and Days of Thunder. He has TONS of money. She can spend like $100,000 and not even look at price tags or care. It is insane!! I just resisted a $20 shirt because I wasn't sure I would wear it that much. Wow!!
20Seems like she is trying way to hard to be a "fashionista". It doesn't seem like her natural style more like she is copying what she thinks being "fashionable" should be.
21I could travel for a week with that sized bag.
22OMG, her knees! Those suckers are HUGE! (and on a too thin girl that looks reeeeeeally bad....)
And please NOBODY but a C-list celeb looking to get her picture taken by the paps goes Christmas shopping dressed like that.
ROFL at the "cat chewed off her hair" comment!
23i think its funny, how EVERYTHING about her changed when she met Tom...I understand people change...but something tells me, she was told to change...
24She needs to stop trying to be Posh and lose the Scientology goons.
25I agree - something about Katie seems unnatural. Oh well.
26i love the shoes! yum sprinkles! those are amazing! ...just one more benifit to living in socal!
27katie looks sooo different compared to what she looked like a couple of years ago! i miss the old katie! she may still be down to earth, but the clothes that she's been wearing these days send a different message. i blame tom...
28The bag id ridiculously oversized for an afternoon of shopping. Maybe if she was on foot in NYC and putting her packages in her bag, but you know she has a driver and assistant around to carry her stuff.
29twinkle, love the robot! i gotta say i don't mind the skirt and shoes. i have always hated birkin bags so i must definitely throw up when i see this hideous oversized one but she could readily hide presents in there so when she gets photographed people can't look at pap pics and see what they got. i agree ginger, unneccessary. the turtleneck is wayyyy too old lady. odd how her turtleneck matchs toms from yesterday. strange............
30I bet you Suri is inside that bag!!!
31hahahahaha suri would be in that bag
32She looks great.
33good night!! i mean, i am all for giant bags. and i am all for hermes. but this however, is just uncalled for!! it really does look ridic. maybe posh would just look better with it because, well, she's just posh. but this bag + katie holmes = no good!!
34very forced most of the time. and way too "precious" and self important. there's something attractive about someone who's not so "put together". 2/3 of the world lives on less than one dollar A DAY. it's a shame someone would spend $10,000 on a handbag.
35is Suri in that bag?
36I have to say, while she is trying to hard and the bag is slightly excessive, I otherwise love her look here. I mean - the shoes are FABULOUS!
The only thing I would change is to take off those ridiculous pockets and put some some gloss with a hint of berry on her lips.
37Don't forget the hair. If you were going to fix her up, making the ends look less scraggly would help.
38Do Scientologists actually celebrate Christmas? Or only it's materialized clone...
And I still haven't quite understood the reason for those huge bags. I use to carry around a lot of stuff, but those bags are big enough to carry corpses away... Okay, maybe I just found the answer. *lol*
39She looks so rigid these days. Where is the fun? The youthful spirit of a young woman her age is no where to be found. She is so serious and stiff (like Posh). I miss the old Katie and her silly joyful young self. Where did that great girl go!?
40wannabe
41I'm with nyaradzom, no matter how she dresses there's just something always off about her and I've not been able to put my finger on it. What she's wearing is nice enough and there's nothing glaringly wrong but......
Love the cat chewed hair comment - that's exactly how it looks! *lol*
42I believe if you can't say something nice you shouldn't say anything at all. So here goes...
I actually like the contrast between the red of the shoes and the suitca..Oops! I mean purse. Do I still get karma points for trying?
43Posh coming to the US was the best thing for Katie. Trust me, she is the same dull, talentless hag with better clothes. She only dresses well to compete with "Perfect Spice".
44Great look if you are 45 or 50? What is she thinking???
I'm not saying she has to look trashy but come on! Why can't she dress her age?
Also...how did she grow out her awful short haircut so fast??
45maybe she is coming from church? How can you shop in those shoes-they are cute though
46I WANT those shoes
47she looks old
48BTW, FOUR security guards????? PLEEEEEEEEASE. Who the heck do these people think they are?
49if tom is in her birkin, then she's got suri in her left pocket.
