It's a shame you can't show it off! Katie Holmes looks glamorous in stylish outfit for interview... on the radio

It may have been a radio interview, but Katie Holmes still wanted to look her best.
The actress opted to forgo her usual fuss-free style and instead went for a chic look as she arrived at the WNYC studios in New York on Wednesday.
And the 33-year-old even proved that you can be both practical and stylish at the same time.

If only it was on TV: Katie Holmes couldn't show off her glamorous outfit during a radio interview on Wednesday

Katie wore a pretty blue woollen coat with black cuffs that served to keep her warm but also left the Dawson’s Creek beauty looking fashionable.
She was also sporting a silky sapphire top, cropped black trousers and snakeskin pumps, and carried a black and red satchel.
The brunette wore minimal make-up and left her tresses loose and unkempt upon her arrival.

Switching styles: Katie arrived at the WNYC studios for an interview on the Leonard Lopate Show with her hair loose, but left sporting a ponytail

But as she left the studios the star had swept her locks into a neat bun and made sure she was bundled up against the cold by buttoning up her coat.
Katie was being interviewed by Leonard Lopate on his radio show.
The smiling star has been in a very sunny mood of late and it seems it’s all down to her new role.
She is currently starring in Dead Accounts on Broadway and appears to be relishing working onstage.

The play is about a prodigal son who returns home from urban New York to his slow-paced Midwest hometown.
Despite less than stellar reviews, Katie has been going at it full steam ahead and Dead Accounts is scheduled to run through February 2013.
The evening before her radio interview Katie was seen stepping out with Suri, her daughter with Tom Cruise.
Something was upsetting the six-year-old as she burst into tears, but fortunately the youngster had her famous mother holding her hand to comfort her.
