Looking pretty in purple, the Ghostbusters star wore a lightly marbled duster and matching solid scarf to keep the chilly New York air from getting to her.
Printed leggings peaked out just below her sweater's long hemline and above her high-top, black sneakers.

Leading lady: Melissa will play Lee Israel, a woman who made ends meet by forging letters from famous people, seen here after transforming into character in Los Angeles on Wednesday
The famous comic will be taking on the starring role in the film based on the memoir of Lee Israel, a woman who made ends meet by forging letters from famous people, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
In 1993, Israel pleaded guilty to conspiracy to transport stolen property before serving six months under house arrest. She died in 2014 at the age of 75.
A celebrated author both before and after the truth of her indiscretions came to light, Israel admitted in her book by the same title that she drafted nearly 400 fake letters from celebrities over about 18 months, according to the New York Times.

Melissa co-wrote the feature with Ben and will be joined on-screen by Adria Arjona and Julie Bowen.
Both films will be out in 2018, with Life of the Party scheduled to premiere on May 11.
