Make it a mini in a burgundy leather skirty by Acne Studios

Katie Holmes is our Fall wardrobe inspiration of the day. The mother-of-one made an appearance at an event for Quaker Oats in New York City dressed snugly in a cozy white sweater, a leather skirt and a pair of black booties.

Her mini is by Acne Studios and we adore that deep burgundy hue and those subtle front slits. The A-line silhouette is also universally figure flattering.

Katie's skirt costs a pretty penny at $1050, but MyTheresa has reduced the price to $735 so grab it now by following the link at right.

We'll be wearing ours with an oversized pullover sweater and knee high boots all season long.

Oatober will see Quaker create more than 60 pieces of content across Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram and Tumblr to demonstrate why oats should be an essential in everyone's diet.

Katie is now based in Los Angeles with her daughter Suri, 10.  

The duo enjoyed a mother-daughter day out in Calabasas last week picking up a couple of drinks from Starbucks.
