The “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” actress and her girlfriend got plenty of exercise hoofing it around the Big Apple, though at one point the ducked into a taxi cab to avoid the paparazzi.

The day before (May 30) Kate was busy classing it up at the 2009 Veuve Clicquot Manhattan Polo Classic on Governors Island.

Miss Hudson traded in her usual hippie-chic look for a more refined ensemble, including a white v-neck dress with beige strappy heels and a large tan hat.
