Naomi Watts stops traffic in striped slit skirt and leather boots as she films new Netflix series in NYC  

It was back to work for Naomi Watts on Tuesday as she filmed her new show Gypsy on location in New York.

The actress, who split from longtime love Liev Schreiber two weeks ago, looked lovely in knee-high brown leather boots paired with a striped slit skirt and cream blouse.

With her shoulder-length blonde hair styled in loose waves and wearing light pink lip color and blush, the 48-year-old appeared on top of her game.

Watts had on a dark gray overcoat for the scene in which she carries a container of salad across the city street.

As she's halfway across the road, she suddenly stops and gasps with amazement as if surprised by someone or something ahead of her. 

Watts is playing a therapist who starts to become too closely involved with her patients in the psychological thriller series that's being made for Netflix.

Tweed is a great autumnal wardrobe update, and this versatile skirt is perfect for work or play, we love the flattering A-line cut; meanwhile the split front gives it a sexy twist.

Watts and Ray Donovan star Schreiber announced their split on September 26 and have said they remain amicable for the sake of their two sons - seven-year-old Samuel and nine-year-old Alexander, known as Sacha.

Last Tuesday, the King Kong actress wished her ex a happy 49th birthday with a heartwarming Instagram snapshot of him cradling their two boys.

'Happy Birthday to this one!! @lievschreiber,' she wrote alongside the photo.

Schreiber is currently starring on stage in the Broadway revival of Les Liaisons Dangereuses.
