Suri Cruise, the daughter of Katie Holmes, 45, and Tom Cruise, 61, was spotted out and about with friends in New York City on Wednesday.
The teen looked casual in a ribbed dark green off-the-shoulder top, paired with colorful baggy pants.
Suri wore slip-on sandals and had a large bag slung over her shoulder.
The brunette teen — who now uses her mother’s middle name as her last name — will be heading to Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh in the fall.

She was first spotted a few weeks after she attended her high school graduation party with her boyfriend Toby Cohen.
Suri revealed her university via a TikTok event, where she and her friends wore their favorite university’s jersey and showed the name to the camera.
The teenager, whose famous father played no role in her upbringing, was always determined to go her own way.
She applied to a number of colleges and universities, where the artistic teenager “gravitated toward” fashion.
Carnegie Mellon’s School of Design is one of the oldest and most respected schools in the country.
Now that she’s been admitted to the hallowed halls, has a remarkably chic mother and a wardrobe reportedly worth $5 million, Suri has the best possible start, if that’s her path.
An insider told DailyMail.com: ‘She’s a bright girl and she’s turning into a very intelligent, mature young woman. She’s got a close-knit group of loyal friends and she knows exactly where she’s coming from.’
While Holmes will undoubtedly be proud of her daughter’s amazing achievements, sources say she is “overwhelmed” at the thought of sending her daughter to college.
One of them recently told DailyMail.com: ‘Katie is very proud of herself, but is also extremely overprotective.’
That may not come as a surprise, considering Holmes has raised Suri single-handedly for the past 11 years.

Tom has only contributed financially to his daughter’s life and has not been seen with his daughter since 2013, after Holmes broke up both the marriage and the Church of Scientology – the religion to which Cruise is so devoted.
Under the divorce settlement, Cruise agreed to pay Holmes $400,000 a year until Suri turned 18 and that he would also continue to pay her college tuition.
Under the terms of their agreement, even though he is physically absent from his daughter’s life, he will pay “medical, dental, insurance, education, college and other extracurricular expenses.”
