Ellen Pompeo brings NYC chic to LA in black ensemble including sleek leather high-heeled boots

She hails from the northeast.

And Ellen Pompeo was New York chic even when she was spotted stepping out for a coffee and a takeaway in Los Angeles this week.

The 51-year-old Grey’s Anatomy star wore an almost completely black ensemble including a pair of sleek leather high-heeled boots.

Ellen emphasized her enviably trim frame in a fitted black sweater and slipped into a matching pleated skirt that fell past the knee.

She even coordinated her mask to the rest of her outfit, opting for a black number as she emerged from lockdown for some refreshments.

The Massachusetts-born TV star added a pop of contrast to her look by accessorizing with a grey pageboy cap.

Ellen has been married to her husband Chris Ivery since 2007 and they have three children – Stella, 11, Sienna, six, and Eli, four.

In a recent interview she got candid about how the pandemic has affected her feelings about playing a medical professional on TV.

‘It’s really serious what they’re going through, and if we could put a face on those faceless healthcare workers…people just hear about them, or they see them behind masks,’ Ellen said to People magazine last month.

‘Even though we are behind masks, so many people are familiar with our show, and that was something to take seriously,’ she confessed.

‘It was a huge responsibility. We were so eager to take it on. I have to say, everybody on the show, all the actors, are super dedicated to it, and really, really excited about getting something so meaningful to portray this season.’

She clarified: ‘Obviously, we’d rather not have COVID-19, but when you’re doing a show for 17 seasons you’re really looking for how to keep these stories going.’ 

Ellen said: ‘These healthcare workers gave it to us this season, so we feel really grateful to be able to tell the stories of these healthcare workers.’

The leggy blonde has been starring as the title character Dr. Meredith Grey since the Shonda Rhimes show began all the way back in 2005.
