The Gossip Girl alum, 35, wore a dark coat that concealed her baby bump and accessorized her look with a blue and black checkered scarf, colorful Chanel bag, sparkly statement necklace and coordinating pair of black boots.

Lively’s NYC outing comes about two months after she confirmed she’s expecting her fourth child with Ryan Reynolds by debuting her baby bump at the Forbes Power Women’s Summit in September. While appearing on one of the panels, the actress—who also shares daughters James, 7, Inez, 6, and Betty,

“I grew up watching a woman be everything: be a mom and also be the hardest working businesswoman I knew,” the A Simple Favor star said during the event. “So it’s important for me for my kids to see that you don’t have to choose one or the other. I don’t need them to choose to be a businesswoman or a mom. They can be both or neither. But just for them to see that anything is possible. So it’s really important for me to do that.”
