Splash NewsKatie Holmes enjoyed a little solo R&R when she was spotted basking in the sun on her hotel balcony in Miami on Thursday morning.
The brunette beauty was photographed sipping a cup of joe and smoking cigarettes during a 90-minute coffee break. The star was solo with little Suri nowhere in sight (Holmes appears to have traveled without her adorable daughter while away for business).
With the exception of the unhealthy habit, the 35-year-old actress looked cute and cozy in a white shirt and gray shorts with her brunette locks pulled up in a messy bun. She appeared a bit preoccupied with her thoughts as she indulged in a drag before later heading to the airport after her short business trip.
The erstwhile Dawson's Creek star recently opened up about her new life in New York City with her 7-year-old daughter since ending her marriage to Tom Cruise in the summer of 2012.
"New York has been very good to both of us," Holmes said of the mother-daughter duo's new life together in NYC. "I love the theater, the galleries in my neighborhood. Stuff [like] that is so much of what makes me love this city. I love the Knicks. I love talking to my neighbors in the elevator. I like feeling a part of something big."
The Ohio native feels at home in the Big Apple, where she's often seen at SoulCycle and Whole Foods. "I love the community in New York. I love New Yorkers. I ran into someone on the street the other day that I went to high school with," Holmes told People. "I love the moments of spontaneity every day."
Holmes was seen looking airport chic while catching a flight out of Miami on Thursday, presumably headed back to her home in the Big Apple, where we imagine she's now reunited with her adorable mini-me!
