Dakota Fanning and her much older boyfriend Jamie Strachan are going strong!

The 19-year-old actress and her 32-year-old British model beau were spotted out and about in NYC together looking like one cute couple.

While running errands and indulging in some retail therapy, Fanning and Strachan were all smiles as they strolled down the sidewalk hand in hand. The Breaking Dawn star sported red shoes, blue jeans and a gray shirt for the outing. She completed her look with sunglasses, a necklace and a black purse.

Strachan, who was carrying a J. Crew shopping bag, wore black shoes, blue jeans and a red hoodie under a dark denim jacket.

Fanning and Strachan went public with their romance when they were similarly spotted walking around NYC together holding hands. At the time, a source told E! News that the couple met through mutual friends and had actually been dating for quite a few months.

Jamie is "very shy and incredibly nice and sweet," the source added, noting that he previously dated Behati Prinsloo, who is now engaged to Adam Levine. The source also said that as of September, the lovebirds weren't living together.

"I don't really date," Fanning revealed earlier this year to Glamour. "I have a weird vision of relationships because my parents have known each other since second grade, and they got married right out of college. I've always thought that's what it's supposed to be like, and if it's not, then I don't want to waste my time on it. Even when I was 14, I was like, ‘I'm not gonna marry this person. What's the point of doing it?' It's not me being naive. I just know what it's supposed to be like. And I think until I feel that, I cannot be bothered."
