Katie Holmes was spotted in a colorful ensemble in New York City on Tuesday – after daughter Suri Cruise’s big move to college.
The Dawson’s Creek star, 45, wore an oversized sweatshirt with a colorful graffiti-like design all over it.
She paired the stand-out top with a pair of wide-legged, tapered jeans that looked straight out of the 1980s and black ballet flats.
She wore sunglasses and her hair down and carried her phone and a brown leather tote.
The sighting comes aa the mother of one settles into her empty nest after Suri 18, moved to Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh for college.

Next month the First Daughter star will head to Pittsburgh for Parents Weekend at Suri’s college.
September 27 and 28 is Family weekend, and Katie is reportedly only allowed to visit her only child at that time.
‘Katie looks forward to visiting her child at school, she is happy for her and wants to be a part of it,’ said a source told DailyMail.com.
‘Katie attended Columbia University for awhile and loved the experience so she is thrilled her girl will be going to college.’
Before Family Weekend, Suri will have a three day weekend over Labor Day.
The daughter of Tom Cruise 62, moved into the dorms a week ago with the help of Holmes. Classes begin on August 26, according to the school’s website.
Tom, whom Suri is estranged from, won’t be there, even though – as DailyMail.com reported last week – he is paying the tuition as it was in his 2012 divorce settlement that he must cover all of Suri’s education.
When Suri turned 18 earlier this year she legally dropped the Top Gun star’s last name and took her mother’s middle name, Noelle, as her new last name.

The divorce documents revealed Tom pays Suri’s expenses, including ‘medical, dental, insurance, education, college and other extracurricular costs.’
‘Tom is indeed paying for Suri’s tuition, he has always paid for her schooling and would never stop as he is a stand-up guy,’ a friend of Tom’s told DailyMail.com. The annual tuition at CMU is $65K.
‘He has never hesitated paying his daughter’s child support and expenses. He does not go back on his word. He is fulfilling his obligation.’
But he is likely no longer paying Katie $38,000-a year in child support as Suri is now 18 and no longer a child.
