Katie Holmes was spotted strolling through midtown New York City on Friday morning, exuding a sense of calm and contentment.
The stylish actress and director wore a chic ensemble, consisting of a beige button-down top over a graphic Patti Smith T-shirt, paired with blue slacks and Mary-Jane flats.
As she walked, she clutched a brown leather Khaite purse and chatted on her cell phone, seemingly carefree.
This sighting comes after she revealed how she is spending her time after her 18-year-old daughter Suri Cruise left for college at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh.
The ex-wife of Tom Cruise is currently working on the play Our Town on Broadway with actress Zoey Deutch, and has been busy with rehearsals.

This is the very talented and kind and funny and wonderful @zoeydeutch and me – come see @ourtownbroadway preview performances begin September 17. We open October 10! ❤️”
Zoey Deutch responded with a heartfelt comment, saying, “Love you!!”
Our Town is a three-act play written by American playwright Thornton Wilder in 1938, which presents the fictional American town of Grover’s Corners between 1901 and 1913 through the everyday lives of its citizens.
Described by Edward Albee as “the greatest American play ever written”, it was first performed in 1923.
The new production will be at the Ethel Barrymore theater in NYC, with Katie playing the role of Mrs. Webb.

This sighting comes just a day before her daughter Suri Cruise’s Labor Day Weekend break from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh.
The private college has Monday off from classes as it is a federal holiday.
The Monday on Labor Day weekend is Suri’s first day off from her new school.
After that, she has Thanksgiving week off from the university, followed by a Christmas break.
Mom will visit on Family Weekend at the school on September 27-28.
Holmes told Town & Country magazine last month that her 18-year-old will be studying acting and dance.
The estranged child of Tom Cruise – who is paying the $65K a year tuition as part of his divorce settlement from Katie – has over 100 theater arts classes to choose from in the prestigious School Of Drama.
Some involve yoga, singing, dance, and the Alexander Technique.
There is also a class called Stanley Kubrick And His Films, where her father Tom’s sex-cult film Eyes Wide Shut with then-wife Nicole Kidman from 1999 will be examined.
The Kubrick class looks at many of the director’s films.
