Katie Holmes is casual-chic in brown plaid jacket as she takes a call on way to Our Town performance in NYC

Katie Holmes happily chatted on the phone as she made her way to the Barrymore Theaters in New York City for the Saturday performance of Our Town.

The actress, 45, known for her distinctive style, wrapped up in a large black scarf and an oversize brown, white and black plaid jacket as she strolled through New York City.

The Rare Objects star and director wore tailored jeans and black lace-up ankle boots. One of the shoes seemed to have a pink sticker on it.

She carried a large camel toned leather bag. 

Holmes appeared to be wearing little to no makeup and wore large gold framed sunglᴀsses in the afternoon sun. 

The majority of her long, dark hair was hidden by the scarf.
