Spreading Her Wings


Who would have thought!

The ex Mrs Cruise seems to have found her
wings as she models for H.Stern jewelry

The emancipation of Katie Holmes has seen her moving from
cosetted (and sometimes dowdy-sorry!) movie stars wife.......

........to sultry, sexy, single working mother.

She is the face of H.Stern's new Iris Collection; a collection inspired by
the sea (hence the semi-naked sultry shots).

She follows in the footsteps of Kate Moss and
Catherine Deneuve, with the jewelry house
set to open a new store in London's
famous Sloane Street.

So what do you think?
Yay or nay?

Is this a finger up to "The Cruise" saying
"look at me now"?

Would love to hear you thoughts

  3. Wow Katie!! She looks sensational and so much more mature, she has really come into her own recently and shown us what a brave woman should be. Thanks for sharing your fashion opinions with me!

  5. I was never a fan of either one of them. She looks good but she should probably be a model instead of an actress. And the child, I can't go there. Love the jewelry however!!

    Have a great rest of the week!!

  6. She looks stunning definitely but I can't really find myself being sympathetic with either of them, just their daughter because their split was (probably) tough for her.

  7. I think she does more advertising work than acting. However, I do think she's beautiful, so why not?

  9. I have to confess, I'm not her biggest fan, but I'm so happy to see her rebound in such an amazing way! Cruise is such a toxic man and I'm sure it took Katie a lot of strength and willpower to get back to normal (whatever her normal is). Thumbs up for her!

  10. Hi Vanessa...I always thought she was beautiful and good for her. I do hope this is a finger up to Tom Cruise. I never liked him, and she just never looked happy with him. Maybe at first, but not for long. It seemed to me as if he turned her into a Stepford wife. I'm sure that took a lot of courage to get away from him, and I'm glad to see her working, and being a strong woman.
    Thanks for sharing

  12. She sure looks like a smoking bombshell in this shoot and I think she did a magazine shoot this month too, where she looks super hot as well. Good for her! Like some of the others here, can't say i'm her biggest fan, but what a transformation from her usual self or the papped version anyway.

    Hope you have super special weekend! Darn the weather!

  13. WOW, she looks beautiful ... she has bone structure that I never even noticed before! I am happy for her ... it was almost as if you could see she wasn't herself for a long time. I don't think we can say that now! Hello, Katie! Hope you had a nice weekend, Vannessa! xoxo ~S

  15. I hardly recognized her - she looks so glamorous - love the whole editorial!

  16. She looks gorgeous! I personally found when she began dating Tom, that's when the transformation began and she got the shorter bob, wore glamorous outfits and always wore makeup (for the most part). It's when she isn't with him that I think she feels free to be herself. She is caught often by paparazzi wearing no makeup at all, comfy jeans (the most recent I saw had rips on the bottom looking a bit tattered) while taking a stroll with her daughter in Central Park.

    I love these photos because it's so obvious that she is comfortable with who she is, she isn't trying to gain anyone's approval. I think there's a small part of every woman that might have the 'look at me now' thought towards an ex but at the same time she comes across as very humble and has a graceful, gentle spirit so I'm sure she was just excited for the opportunity. I read something recently that stated she is thinking of going to law school and following her father and brother's footsteps. She seems to just mainly want a 'normal' life. I don't blame her!
