Blake Lively stepped out solo on Friday while taking care of errands in upstate New York.
The 38-year-old actress has reportedly repaired her friendship with former close pal Taylor Swift, 36, as the singer prepares for her wedding to Travis Kelce, also 36.
Still, Lively did not appear to be among the guests at Swift’s reported bachelorette weekend in Rhode Island.
For the low-key outing, the It Ends With Us star wore a soft pink tunic paired with a matching pastel patterned jacket.
She completed the look with cuffed jeans and pink sneakers, wearing her long curls slicked back into a bun in a rare change from her usual style.
Lively appeared fully made up as she stopped at a grocery store in Pound Ridge.

Lively and Swift’s famously close relationship was strained last year amid the former’s contentious legal battle against Justin Baldoni.
In December 2024 Lively named her It Ends With Us co-star and director in a lawsuit accusing him of sexual harassment, retaliatory conduct, and intentional infliction of emotional stress.
Swift was dragged into the drama when Baldoni’s team subpoenaed Lively for text messages, emails and any other messages between her and the songstress.
His lawyers were then allowed to pore through the text trail, and in one text exchange, Lively appeared to refer to herself as the Game of Thrones character Khaleesi, and to Swift as one of her ‘dragons.’
Elsewhere in Baldoni’s filing was the claim that Swift was present at a meeting convened by Lively at her New York penthouse to discuss script changes.
Sources close to Swift insisted the singer had no knowledge of the meeting and simply arrived to find it underway.
The situation reportedly left the songstress – who is godmother to Lively’s three daughters – feeling ‘exploited.’
But Swift is said to have extended an olive branch to her former bestie in the form of an invitation to her wedding.

TMZ has shut down the possibility that the Bad Blood hitmaker and her athlete fiancé could be tying the knot at Ocean House hotel in Rhode Island this weekend.

Photos published by the outlet on Friday showed a huge tent erected on the hotel lawn, days after Swift’s nearby mansion was bustling with security.
Multiple sources told the publication that she is not hosting a gathering at Ocean House, and instead another bride from New York City will wed there.
Meanwhile, footage obtained by TMZ showed a woman who appeared to be Swift’s longtime friend Abigail Anderson Berard on a balcony holding a small child.
Another clip circulating on TikTok showed four women on a rooftop balcony, three dressed in black robes while a fourth – a blonde woman – stood out in a white robe.
An eyewitness told TMZ the usually subdued property’s lights were fully on by around 8 p.m. on Wednesday.
The same observer also described an unusually heavy security presence around the property.
It was said that guards were positioned in the driveway as a gate opened for an SUV with tinted windows to leave the estate.

Swift’s upcoming wedding to Travis Kelce is the talk of the town
Swift is days away from tying the knot with Kelce, as the pair have reportedly planned an Independence Day weekend wedding.
In recent weeks, mystery around where the singer and football star will say ‘I do’ has deepened.
Earlier this month an insider exclusively told the Daily Mail that the couple will marry at Madison Square Garden (MSG), with the pair deciding to ’embrace the spectacle’ of a giant wedding.
And last week business owners in the highly congested area voiced concerns over a potential loss of revenue amid security accommodations.
According to TMZ, less than one month before the expected event, local bars and restaurants claimed they had yet to receive details regarding the major event that is sure to have an impact on their establishments.
Meanwhile, some insiders labeled the MSG narrative a ‘distraction plot’ to deter the public from the real wedding venue.
It’s been reported that wedding guests will not know the address until the morning of the event, believed to be July 3.
