Suri Cruise has officially claimed her place on the “cool girl” roster, wearing the perfect summer uniform. The 19‑year‑old has done it with effortless precision, recently being spotted in New York City in a stripped-back, yet undeniably stylish outfit: a crisp white tank, slouchy blue jeans cinched with a brown belt. She is perfectly embodying the season’s coveted aesthetic. When the summer heat becomes too much, it’s easier to lean into a minimalist uniform, and Cruise has got it down pat. This look, a harmonious blend of simplicity and the TikTok viral “Clean Girl” aesthetic, is on point for those seeking summer style that doesn’t feel basic.

Cruise is the daughter of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, two high-profile celebrities known for their unique looks, but this outfit in particular screams Katie. Suri’s outfit featured a fitted white tank top, classic straight-leg jeans, a utilitarian brown leather belt, and a pair of classic Nike Cortez sneakers.

This full ‘fit echoes the ongoing minimalist trend we’re seeing all over the internet. It's the type of outfit that looks casual, but serves as a very cool, confident, and built-to-last look in your closet. Now, more than ever, as overconsumption is on the rise, having a capsule closet is a young person’s guide to leading a more conscious life when it comes to fashion.

Neutrals are this summer’s canvas, and Suri proves it masterfully. What takes a basic white‑tank‑jeans combo into the upper echelon of street cool? Sleek accessories. Suri’s brown belt isn’t just practical, it also adds a hint of life to the overall look. She kept it simple elsewhere with a relatively bare face and a slicked-back bun — a Gen Z favorite these days.

Suri Cruise, with her laid‑back attitude and inherited taste, shows us that summer style isn’t about flash, it’s about the quiet power of simplicity done right. We all could use a good summer uniform to get us through these sweaty days. It’s clear from her fashion sense thus far that Cruise isn’t too big on trends and is rocking a style that’s true to her (and we love to see it!).
