The actress was no doubt aware that ex-husband Jesse James had brought new girlfriend Kat Von D on a weekend trip to Austin, where both Sandra and Jesse live.
Seemingly putting her smiley disposition on ice, the American actress played it casual in turn-up denim shorts, flip flops and a striped top.
She was in New Orleans over the weekend to mark the fifth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina and to see the progress made in the stricken city since the natural 2005 disaster.
However, her recent divorce from her cheating ex-husband Jesse James is surely not far from her mind - especially as he is flaunting his relationship in front of her.

James was also pictured yesterday in Austin, making no secret of his new relationship with LA Ink star Kat Von D as they strolled hand in hand down the street together.
Oscar-winning actress Bullock, 46, had visited the New Orleans high school that she helped rebuild for the opening of an on-campus health clinic.
Looking stylish in a fitted navy dress, towering peep-toe heels and sleek hair pulled to one side, the beaming star spoke of the 'unimaginable kindness, perseverance and hope' she had seen at Warren Easton Charter High School, which was swamped by the fierce storm.

Bullock - who hugged staff and cracked jokes with reporters - has a special place in her heart for New Orleans.
Her adopted eight-month-old son Louis was born there and she has bought a home in the city so he can stay close to his roots.
In a sit-down interview with Matt Lauer, set to air on Tuesday on the Today show, she revealed she calls her son her 'little Cajun cookie'.
Reflecting on the 'long, long process' of officially adopting the baby Bullock added that the tot 'was always mine'.
'It wasn't like I felt someone was going to take him away. But it was nice to have someone say, "I think you're a fit parent,"' she added.
As for how she kept the adoption a secret, Bullock credits her friends and family who 'are filled [with] massive amounts of integrity' and who, even when things get bad, are 'still the same friends.'
