Not her usual style New York - Arabstoday Katie Holmes looks seriously sexy on the cover of “Elle” magazine's August issue. The actress seductively flashes her sheer black bra in an unbuttoned top and flaunted her enviable locks and killer cheekbones. In an inside photo the actress shows off her sultry fashion sense donning a leather ruffled top and black skinnies — both by Holmes & Yang — teamed with Manolo Blahnik for Wes Gordon pointy-toe pumps. And she also opens up about this rarely-seen side of herself. “I definitely feel much more comfortable in my own skin,” she tells Elle. “I feel sexier. I think in my twenties – it’s like you’re trying too hard to figure everything out…I’m starting to come into my own. It’s like a new phase.” The actress spoke to “Elle” just weeks before she announced she was to divorce her husband Tom Cruise. During the questioning she hinted that she wanted to focus on her separate image as opposed to being Tom's wife and the mother of his child Suri Cruise. She said:''He has been Tom Cruise for 30 years. I know who I am and where I am and where I want to go, so I want to focus on that.''
