And so it has happened. Mainstream stores have now added the rolled up jean to their online marketing tactics. While this JCrew pair isn't exactly boyfriend jeans, you can clearly see that if Katie Holmes wears something enough, it catches on.
Here she is (for the 7th time) exiting rehearsals for All My Sons wearing this new look.

such an unattractive trend. I hope it dies out quickly.

I don't know why everyone is making a fuzz from this. I think she looks MUCH bettter in large/rolled up jeans, much more younger (as she is) and laid back.

Hate the jeans, but LOVE the shoes and sweater. Gorgeous color.

I just don't get the BAGGYNESS of those pants. It's just SO unflattering; it makes her look chubby, and each time I see a picture of her, I want to holler "PULL UP YOUR PANTS!!" Rolled-up jeans -- whatever. I'm not going to wear them, but I never wore those tapered-leg stovepipe jeans, either. To each her own. I DO love her shoes, though. I'll bet Suri picked them out.
JCrew has had those jeans for a while now. Which just goes to show that Katie Holmes is not a trend setter.
For all we know those could be Tom's pants that she's wearing just for sentimental value and now we've made it a trend! I wouldn't wear it.
God, it's taking me back to 1986 when I wore my pants and jeans just like this. Not a good look to bring back.
No. No. No. No. And NO!

Maybe she's trying to draw attention away from her bad haircut? It seems to be working. LOVE the shoes though!
I personally don't like this trend at all. However, I must say that I do like the fact that Katie doesn't give a flying "%&$*" what everyone else is thinking. She is totally playing with us for giving her such a hard time. Good for her.
It's very rare that you see a celebrity in the same outfit twice, so I'm a little perplexed that she keeps wearing these same jeans day after day.

i know, right! i think she's wearing them every day to break us in - before you know it we'll all have stolkhome syndrome and start associating and siding with the jeans! non! VIVA LA RESISTANCE!
ok, fashion's fashion, but this is JUST SO BAD! there's nothing flattering about it. the fit of the jcrew ones is cuter, though the excess that the roll creates looks stupid and sort of like something a jester or clown would wear.

She may wear them every day for all I care, those things are bringing very unflattering memories from the 80's. NO ONE can pull those off.
I really don't know what the big deal is. No one is forcing anyone to wear this, who cares if some like it? There have been times I've been working in the yard with my jeans rolled up, and had to go into town like that, maybe *I* started this (not) new trend? (hahaha, just teasing). Anyway, they probably WILL catch on with the younger crowd, we'll just have to get used to it.

Where can I get those shoes? Super cute. Then again, I have a strong affection for anything patent leather. My co-worker makes fun of me but I am addicted. Flats, wedges, stiletto's.

Rolled up jeans isn't really doing anything for me...

I don't think JCrew all of a sudden saw Katie and decided to start selling those jeans. Stores decide months in advance what to sell.
Katie obviously likes the style. Lord knows how much she paid for those hideous jeans. I'll start the guessing at $200. I wouldn't wear that mess for $75. Some trends should never come back. She should stop playing dress up with Tom's money. It's not make anyone take her seriously. And she looks ridiclous.

Unbelievable.
just an FYI... I used to work for J.Crew, the rolled up ad ISN'T new and ISN'T a result of Katie Holmes' new look.
They have had those ads for a loooong while.
Everyone ELSE is starting to catch on!
i love this look. cant wait to have those kind of jeans.

The thing is she never seems to wear anything else more than once, why in the hell is she wearing this ugly ass jeans every day?
she looks dumpy. i'm not caving in to this.
Who CARES that she wears these pants or how many times she wears them! Damn, get over this already! No wonder they say that women are catty! Grow up!

Get over it? Catty? Grow up? Why would you even be on a site like this if you didnt enjoy doggin' the celebrities and their fashion styles. Weirdo.

For real this has got to stop! I could handle the skinny jeans and the ballet flats coming back from the 80's but not the "tight roll" jeans!! This is bringing back bad 7th and 8th grade memories BUT back then guys were doing it too (the horror!).
you know, i kind of like that look. not necessarily with the ballet flats, maybe a good pair of flip flops... i think she's adorable, and it seems as though she's becoming her own person again. i looooove the haircut, too. i wish i had the guts to do it, myself!!
Actually I kinda like it...I'm short, which means I wouldn't have to hem my pants. Yea...I think I do like it!
jcrew has been doing this LOOONG before katie.

But it looks hideous. Both the ad and her style. Actually hers looks better then the ad, but it's still so wrong.

I'm sorry. I love the look. But then again I was alive the first time it came around. It's so Bananarama!

As I stated yesterday, I saw at least one photo in the July 2008 VOGUE with the 'rolled jeans' look.

i think its ugly! makes legs look like sausages!
This was a trend back in 92. It's called "pegging" and I cannot believe that this horrendous look is coming back. Ugh.....

Ok, I think we all got it: 1. This is not a trend started by her. It was started by J.Crew, and before that, middle school girls in the 80's. Oh, and Banarama...................2. Katie looks more like Tom every day................3. It looks bad with ballerina shoes, or, wait, bad with anything....................4. She has worn this look all week and must be punished...............5. This has been in Vogue before Katie started wearing it.................6. Last: I'm waiting to see if little Suri has some little rolled up jeans, too. ;-)
it looks cute, she can pull it off ok.

Didn't Posh wear the look a few weeks before Katie first did?
I tried to copy this look today. I didn't have any clean jeans, so I rolled up my sweatpants. I'm going to Wal-Mart, you might see me on the cover of something tommorrow.
J. Crew has had that style of jeans pictured in their catalogue as well as their other visual materials for at least four or five seasons. This really isn't a new thing ...

eeeek!!!! My childhood relived!! LOL OH gosh, and to think i jokingly showed my younger family members how we used to wear our pants. I'll scream if they call me for pointers. LOL But seriously, does this mean that the scrunched up socks, sometimes paired with 2 pairs, is gonna make a comeback??? Shoulder pads too?!?!!? Oh please, I don't think I could handle that one!! ^_^
300 points
Ok, shoulderpads are the work of the devil. If they ever come back I'm gonna have to stuff a pair in my mouth and suffocate.
This is definitely NOT a trend i'll be following...
I confess I follow the style of Holmes :)
Jcrew has been doing that to their jeans in their catalog for a while now...thought it was to really show the shoes off a bit more. looks cute with a skinnier jean not. so much with baggy jeans...
My American idol ***smiles****
Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy...the fact that they're baggy just makes it look worse. And who said they make her look chubby??? You're whacko!
There is no way that girl could look fat! The baggy jeans just make her look like she's an anerexic twig drowning in a blue sea of denim. Or she's bargain hunting at the thrift store and can't find any jeans that fit. Seriously...
Anyway, I am all for a flat rolled jean half way up the calf with a cute pair of flip flops or something. I never wear my pants rolled up in such a sloppy fashion unless I'm planning on cooling my feet off in shallow water...or mopping the floor...yeah, she pretty much looks like she's getting ready to clean the kitchen floor.
As a fashion trend....
Survey Says:
Thumbs down!
It's too much of a last minute look that flatters absolutely nothing on the figure, and appeals absolutely ZERO to the eye.
As a normal person who doesn't buy into trendy fashion more than 30% of the time...
Survey Says:
Thumbs up!
As someone else said, she could care less what anyone thinks, so good for her!

she looks like crap

im thinking these jeans and baggy tops are easy to rehearse in than the skin tight skinny legs, or perhaps she has a leotard under nearth or something? seeing as tho she's at rehearsals who would she be tryin to impress?? ive done some small theatre shows and unless your rehearsing in something super comfy and flexible you really cant rehearse at all.
or yes maybe soon we'll see Posh sporting the same boyish baggy jeans to...??? paris anyone??

How sad. And I bet they fly off the rail as well.
having gone to a performing arts school from 4th-12th grade and being involved in many stage productions i can tell you this is pretty much the dresscode during rehersals. Big baggy jeans, dance clothes underneath and a sweater. She's just trying to fit in ;)
