What is with Katie Holmes and her ongoing trend of wearing stellar jeans? Aren’t these jeans awesome? I want a pair very badly. Apparently, they’re “Paige Denim High Rise Bell Canyon jeans in Breckinridge.” Breckinridge is a color now…? Sure. I’m not even going to look up how much these jeans cost, though. I know it will just depress me. Let me live in these dream state for a little while longer where I can imagine that I too can find a great pair of jeans that will fit me this well.
Meanwhile, Katie and her new “style” has taken the cover of Life & Style this week. And when I say “style” I mean “eating disorder”. At least according to L&S – the tabloid claims that Katie is such a powerless victim in her life, that she’s taking control of the one thing that Xenu doesn’t have an absolute say in: what food she consumed. Yes, Katie has apparently lost weight because she simply wanted to make ONE decision for herself, or as a source tells L&S, “Tom may have taken over every aspect of her life, but only she has control over her body.” The insider even claims that Tom treats Katie “like his Eliza Doolittle” and that Katie is on a “near hunger-strike”. Meaning she drinks Diet Coke all day and works out a lot.
And now that she’s spending a lot of time in Miami, in a bikini, people are starting to notice her penis belly button weight loss. A witness to Katie’s slimness noted, “It was jarring how painfully thin she looked.” No worries, though, because now that everyone is talking about how unhealthy she looks (seriously, she doesn’t look unhealthy at all), Katie will probably put some weight back on because Suri will order it. A source says, “Suri is the only bright light in Katie’s long lonely days.” Sure. Makes sense (not really). By the way, Katie’s rep denied the story to Gossip Cop.

Remember those photos of her a month or so ago with her belly hanging out amid speculation she was pregnant? That would make me want to drop a few, too…
“Drinks diet coke all day and works out a lot” – translation: she’s an actress and lives in hollywood.
Maybe there’s something wrong with my perception of the female body, but I actually don’t think she looks that skinny here. She looks great IMO and I love the jeans.
If I bought those jeans I’d take em back and get a refund. They are poorly made. Look at in the 1st picture at how the inseam is wrapping around to the front of her leg at the knee…I HATE when that happens.
@Birdix, I was going to say the same thing.
She looks great 🙂 I will never understand the need to fabricate drama when so much real crap exists (see:Lilo) Katie’s one of the prettiest celebs I’ve seen in person too! Amazing skin and hair
I am actually of the opinion that those jeans are tooooo tight… (even on her wasting away skin and bones emaciated shape…riiiight).
She has an odd body. no matter how much weight she loses her legs will always look chunky and her lower stomach will always look bloated. This can really trigger a bulimic person. I think it would be best if she stopped obsessing over her body and instead studied acting.
I agree, she doesn’t look skinny here especially in the legs.
@8 Kelly – I couldn’t agree more!
Dear Life&Style,
Re: Kristen Calamari – She was “jilted” sure, but not at the altar. If your going to get that hopelessly wrong on the cover, how can I possibly truly trust your Katie Holmes story?!!
Dressed she looks fine to me, in the bikini not so much. Though Birdix is right that she can’t win.
she looks good in jeans but skinny in bikini
I think those jeans are terrible! They are tight and binding at the thighs. Katie is a tall, slim girl. So why are those jeans fitting her like she needs to lose a few pounds? (She doesn’t, I think she looks great.)
Kaiser: I found really great, affordable jeans at the gap. I was kind of shocked at how well they fit.
I don’t like the inseam wrapping thing either. But she does look good here. I think these are skinny straight leg with a bit of a stretch and a slightly high waist. Suits boyish shapes.
They look like pajama jeans.
Kaiser, Paige Denim is great. It has a nice slim fit. They are expensive-ish but worth it if you’re a denim fan.
Here’s my theory on Katie – depression. She’s back and forth with the fitness and looking put together. It’s like she frequently feels defeated but then finds the energy from somewhere to push through and give living a good life one more go. Between Tom and that church, it’ a small wonder that she can get out of bed.
She looks fine to me, still bigger than 90% of other actress/celebs in LaLa land
Btw, leave her tummy button alone, for all those little girls that have an outty tum button and who really don’t deserve a complex over it! (cross face over)
she still has ugly legs even in those jeans
I think she looks good. I don’t know about “chunky legs” but ya. There’s nothing wrong with her body.
IDK bout this… she looks like she’s got some great musculature in those legs.
Slender, definitely– unhealthy, I don’t think so.
@Kaiser
Don’t fret! I’ve bought three pairs of Paige denims at the Bloomingdale’s outlet store. I paid at least 50% less (and in one case 75% less!). And yes, that includes the pair she is wearing, just in a slightly lighter hue. 🙂
If any of the women on the LS cover think they’re “fat” I must be grossly obese! thanks LS! *growls*
Um…no. Those jeans do not look good on her at all. They are clearly puckering at the thighs. I’d say they are one size too small, however the problem with Paige jeans is that unless you have super narrow stovepipe thighs and hips and are super tall, you have to go up one size, and then the butt and waist is too big. Shame because they have some great fabrics and colors. I’m a petite girl but even I look like a chunk in them. Same thing with Joe’s. Consequently, I’m still on the hunt for a new “go-to” brand.
Ugh she looks fine, why the fuss.
Actually she’s been looking better than ever lately.
But those jeans are not cute to me.
Good observation SoCalGal 🙂
I don’t believe this sh**! Seriously, a whole cover about eating disorders or such? Such poor journalism.
Ms. Holmes doesnt get much sympathy from me as she knew what she was getting into when she married Tom Crazy.
she is such a classic beauty! I hope she finds her way out of CO$.
That picture on the cover of the magazine labeled “Skin and Bones”, looks like the camera caught her while she was sucking in her stomach.
I think she looks great walking around town in those jeans and her white shirt. She doesn’t appear gaunt, or bobble-headed. I just don’t like that if someone loses 5-10 pounds then…ZOMG! EATING DISORDER! Like no, that is not necessarily the case. And I feel the same way about someone gaining 5-10 pounds. I mean that doesn’t make somebody “fat”. I seriously remember in one of these trashy Enquirer magazines my mom had bought, where they had praised Katherine Heigl’s beach body for being curvy, but then on the next page, chastised Reese Witherspoon for her curvy body. I was like WTF? How can that be both good and bad?
I just want to know how she can stand wearing such tight jeans in the awful Florida summer heat!
Those jeans rock!!!
She doesnt look THAT skinny here…
I dont think she looks too skinny at all but it looks like her thighs are ready to split thru those jeans. They look super tight on her.
She looks stunning!
And she’s still boring
I like the cut, but she needs to go up a size. The way these jeans pucker and twist make her thighs look large and she’s clearly not a large girl. Maybe once they’ve stretched out they’ll look good. Nice cut though.
She needs to grab Suri and escape to Madagascar or something so Tom and CO$ won’t find her. Those girls need a normal life.
Just make sure to take malaria pills with you, Katie. Run away!!!
@Kelly, I don’t think she is the one obsessing over her body. Believe that’s the public’s job.(as based on the above comments).
@It is ME!!!, She needs to become a citizen of France. They will not extradite their countrymen anywhere. Kinda like China, only a lot more fun and safer.
Kaiser,
Try the “long and lean” from Gap. They are slight flare at the bottom like these and mid rise but super, super comfy and they come in petites, too!
I would recommend sizing down 1 size though because gap stuff runs a little big.
“Look at in the 1st picture at how the inseam is wrapping around to the front of her leg at the knee”
My pants always do that. I always thought I was just fat. hahaha Thanks for clarifying that it was the denims fault. Now onto another cupcake…
@ K I love the gap jeans, I have been buying mine there for years. They always fit great.
Paige is fabulous! I have almost 20 pair. Breckinridge is the wash. I am going to let you all in on an amazing secret. I’m a serious jeans and shoes addict, like well over 100 pair of each. Drives my husband crazy that I drag half of it all over the world with us on our Cirque tour.
Anyway, there is a site/forum online that denim addicts are on. There is a mall where you can buy all authenticated jeans for really cheap, many times with the tags, AND they go through all of ebay, auth all the auctions and post them. I’ve gotten new Paige, TR, 7s, you name it for as little as 10 bucks. It’s the greatest thing ever and the prices beat the outlets where you are getting seconds or pairs that are not the same quality. It’s at authenticforum.com.
Enjoy! I refuse to pay store price for jeans!
@star. Paige has a cut called Benedict canyon, that is cut bigger in the thighs and smaller in the waist. You have to try all the different styles.
Try AG, they seem to fit really well on the hourglasses. I have a tiny waist, so I have the same issue. Also, you could try William Rast. Good luck!
she does not look unhealthy skinney / anorexic — if anything she was looking a bit chunky and it’s an improvement
Her lowest weight? She has been much thinner. She actually looks kind of thick in the legs/muscular – not fat but certainly not skinny. She has a total boy/gymnast body type.
Not fat – not stick thin. She looks healthy to me.
I got a pair of “Silver Tuesday Jeans” from Nordstroms over a year ago…not very expensive. They look just like these..
She actually looks good here for once.
She looks great in jeans but that bikini picture seems like she sucked her stomach in, I bet she is not that skinny at all.
The top doesn’t cling at all and the jeans fit snugly..so it’s really impossible to say how much weight she’s lost. That said, I do think she looks a bit skinnier in the cheeks and arms.
@ TurtleDove: Between Tom and that church, it’ a small wonder that she can get out of bed.
Dont you mean CULT instead of CHURCH?
When did she get the boob reduction? And WHY? She looked so much better before her surgeries (boob, nose). I blame that nut case husband – who knows what crazy thoughts he’s putting in her head. (She seemed rather dumb and easy to manipulate, which is probably why he chose her)
she looks good in those jeans – at least you can’t see her belly button.
she looks fine weight-wise, to me…????
she seems fit and proportional….meh.
she looks nice
her legs are very niche and healthy
I love her shirt more than the jeans.
I must get it. I wish you wrote where she got the shirt!
ever since she got with Tom she is loosing weight just like Nicole.
I think the pressure is coming from Tom.
I can’t tell if they are good jeans or not because of how different her body type is.
she never looks good to me, always something off; those jeans are horrible, inseam going around to front of leg
Are you guys serious? She looks great! What sort of weird body dysmorphic standards do you have to say she looks chunky or doesn’t look skinny in these photos?! 🙁
They’re VERY 2002~ I love them!
it doesn’t look like she lost weight to me, just must be good jeans. not genes.
Katie is a great admirer of Kate Middleton. So it’s not a surprise Katie also likes the Kate Middleton’s thinspiration.
$199.00 at Neimen Marcus. But she probably paid three times that somehow.
The Paige Denim High Rise Bell Canyon jeans in Breckinridge are $199.00. What do you think, Kaiser? They arent Target priced but they’re way cheaper than Seven or True Religion 🙂
She looks pretty good.
One word: Tailoring.
She was always very petite and she had a kid. Saggy skin is not an eating disorder.
She’s dieting down like that because her legs are naturally thickish. In order to have slim legs she has to be really thin everywhere else. It isn’t sustainable.
The “Angelina: skips meals and snubs carbs” is hilarious!
It’s more like Angelina: drinks only liquids for days, snorts cocaine and pops pills.
I question her recent weight loss to the recent photos of her in her bikini. Didn’t anyone notice her stomach looked familiar to Tara Reids liposuction stomach? Similar to a raisin left out in the sun too long?
are you kidding me?? extreme weight loss?? huh?!
Very great post. I simply stumbled upon your weblog and wanted to mention that I’ve truly enjoyed surfing around your blog posts. In any case I will be subscribing in your feed and I’m hoping you write again very soon!
Tabloids don’t care that Jonah is on video talking about this very same subject of his dramatic weightloss because that won’t sell, but put Brad in there and we have a conversation piece.
