Blake Lively had a fan girl moment meeting Joanna Gaines and Chip Gaines in New York City on Wednesday.
The actress, 37, chatted up a storm with the HGTV stars during an outing in the Big Apple.
Blake cut a chic figure in a mustard and white geometric jacket, adding a mustard hued blouse tucked into jeans.
The star’s sighting comes two months after drama amid her press tour for the film It Ends With Us – from a rumored feud between her and her co-star and the film’s director Justin Baldoni, to her treatment of a journalist from a resurfaced interview, to her promoting her movie – which is about domestic violence – and telling fans should ‘wear their florals’ and go to the movies with their girlfriends.

Blake wore luxe Chanel loafers with her look, adding a number of rings to add sparkle to her ensemble.
The actress couldn’t stop smiling as she chatted up a storm with the home renovation stars.
Joanna, 46, and Chip, 49, became household names after starring in the hit reality star show on HGTV – Fixer Upper.
Since then, the stars oversee the new channel Magnolia Network, their magazine the Magnolia Journal, and home decor collections for their website and Target.
In 2016, Blake gushed about Joanna and Chip on a radio show, saying that she reached out to them because her and husband Ryan Reynolds – who turned 48 on Wednesday – were big fans.
At the time, Blake said they text ‘every now and then’ while on her phone interview for KiddNation.
Ryan also tweeted in 2015 his love for Joanna and Chip, writing: ‘Current goal: Move family to Waco. Infiltrate the lives of @TheMagnoliaMom and @ChipperGaines. Eat stuff. Build stuff. Smash stuff.’

Joanna at the time revealed to Entertainment Tonight that Chip has a man crush on Ryan.
‘Chip loves Ryan Reynolds. I’m sure he has a man crush on him. He likes to go back and forth with Scott Foley,’ she said.
‘There are a few people every now and then I will hear him gasp “Look who just tweeted me.” It still doesn’t feel real. We are just Chip and Joanna in Waco, Texas.’
Their sighting comes one month after Blake’s promotional tour for It Ends With Us, which was shrouded with negative press – among the drama was her frosty relationship with her co-star and the film’s director Justin Baldoni.
In addition, Blake promoted the film as something to ‘grab your friends and wear your florals,’ which came across as insensitive and tone deaf to some due to the domestic violence themes present in the movie.

Journalist Kjersti Flaa also posted an interview she did in 2016 to her YouTube page.
At the time, Blake was pregnant – and it was public that she was pregnant – and the journalist started off the interview congratulating her on her ‘little bump,’ to which Blake replied back and congratulated the journalist on her ‘little bump’ despite the fact that she was not pregnant.
She never apologized to the journalist.
Another instance was an interview Blake did on a local Chicago news broadcast, when the host asked her what she should tell a fan who approached her to discuss the main theme of the movie which was domestic violence.
Blake sarcastically answered, asking the host if she should give them her address.
