Katie Holmes dons a white tee and a pair of linen trousers as she enjoys a day out in the Big Apple

Her new film The Secret: Dare to Dream, based on the popular self-help book by Rhonda Byrne, premiered on streaming platforms last week. 

But Katie Holmes looked like the everyday New Yorker on Thursday afternoon as she ran errands around the city.

The 41-year-old actress kept casual for her outing in a loose fitting white tee and a pair of comfy linen pants.

The majority of Katie’s famous face was dominated by a leopard print mask and a pair of designer shades.

Her brunette tresses were messily styled into a bun and she had a single gold chain around her neck.

Holmes carried her belongings in a purple canvas bag and she trekked down the sidewalk in a pair of white Keds.

Katie browsed a few stores before flagging down her black SUV and returning home to her 14-year-old daughter Suri.

Katie shares Suri with ex Tom Cruise, 58, whom she was married to from 2006 until their divorce in 2012.

And according to her The Secret: Dare To Dream co-star Jerry O’Connell, the Dawson’s Creek alum is a ‘great mom’ and an ‘inspiring parent.’

‘Just a few takeaways I got from working with Katie Holmes — obviously [she’s] a great actress, obviously beautiful. But a great mom, a really great mom. Actually, like, an inspiring parent,’ gushed the 46-year-old actor to Us Weekly.

Jerry got an up-close look at Holmes interacting with her daughter on a day-to day basis during the shooting of their new drama film.

He added: ‘Katie Holmes is really maybe the loveliest [person].’

In the film, Katie plays the role of ‘hardworking young widow’ Miranda Wells, who is struggling to raise three children and uphold a household on her own.  

Wells’ world is turned upside down when she meets a man by the name of Bray Johnson who ‘carries a secret that could change everything.’

Holmes opened up about life in quarantine with her 14-year-old daughter to Australian newspaper The Daily Telegraph, while promoting The Secret: Dare To Dream last week. 

Katie admitted that the confinement that comes with quarantining has made her ‘look at everything’ she has and has encouraged her to celebrate the little things.

‘I like to keep [Suri] out of my interviews, but I will say that this time of quarantine has been such a lesson,’ she admitted.

‘Just really looking at everything you have and celebrating the simplicity of making dinner and [spending] that time together.’ 

By taking in her surroundings and appreciating her day-to-day experiences, Holmes has come to realize just how ‘very blessed’ she is.

‘When I think about my life, I feel very blessed. I have felt very lucky and I rely on my instincts a lot but I also forgive myself for mistakes.’
