Picking up a few last minute presents, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were spotted doing some Christmas Eve (December 24) shopping at Limonade in Santa Monica with daughters Violet and Seraphina.
Going super casual for the holiday retail romp, the famous family of four strapped on their sneakers for their afternoon gift-buying on the go.
In career news, the expectant momma Jen has a busy 2012 ahead of her, as she's set to star in the "The Odd Life of Timothy Green" with castmate/rapper Common.
Under the direction of Peter Hedges, the comedy/drama centers on a "childless couple who bury a box in their backyard, containing all of their wishes for an infant. Soon, a child is born, though Timothy Green is not all that he appears."

Jennifer Garner covers the January issue of InStyle Magazine, and she promoting her role in the smaller, independent film Butter. That?s the film about competitive butter-carving, and Garner produced the film as well. In addition to talking about that film, she?s also talking a lot about her family. Not just the kids, but her husband too, which is a rare thing. Well? let me say it this way – Jennifer will often say something about Ben in her interviews, but Ben rarely says anything about her. Usually Jennifer shows a little caution when discussing her husband, but I think she feels like she and Ben are in a better place right now, because this is the most gushy as I?ve ever seen her. They?ve been together for seven years now, and she?s pregnant with their third kid. Maybe Jennifer feels like they?re already passed the rough phase of their marriage?
The secret to her 7-year-marriage to Ben Affleck: “We both know we couldn’t do what we do without each other. Ben always says, ‘If you love it, we can make it happen.’ ”
Affleck gives her diamonds: Affleck, 39, enjoys showering his wife with diamonds. He gave her a pair of Pink and white diamond Harry Winston bands, one for each of their two daughters, Violet, 6, and Seraphina, who turns 3 next month. “He knows when to swoop in with the gesture. He’s sweet that way,” Garner says. “Honestly, I would do anything for that man, because I know it’s not taken for granted.”
Pregnancy at age 39: “A game changer.” Garner admitted to having a difficult first trimester, complete with nausea, exhaustion and junk-food cravings. “I wish I was one of those cute pregnant girls who wear skinny jeans throughout their pregnancies. But I just gain weight. I?m trying really hard to be mindful, but when I?m making the kids mac and cheese, I want it badly.?
Not giving her kids junk food: “My kids had never seen Doritos before. They would say, ‘Mom, where did you get that orange chip? I really want that.’”
On somebody she’d like to meet: “During my second pregnancy I loved listening to the cellist Yo-Yo Ma. I’ve thought about contacting him, but I’ve never had the nerve.”
On loving her current state of life: “I’m not as myopic as I used to be. During those Alias years I worked 362 days a year. It was great, but I wouldn’t trade my life now for anything.”
On the joys of being a producer: “Being a producer has helped me find the part of myself that has a voice. I’m not just the good girl who’s handed a script.”
On her Butter character: ?I identified with her loss of identity,? she says of her character. ?You identify with your career then become a mom and put everything you have into the happiness of those kids. And though I wouldn?t change it for anything, you lose part of yourself.?

It?s surprising that Garner even admits that she?s ?lost? part of herself in motherhood, considering Garner is usually all about being Mother Superior, even going out of her way to say that ?there?s no deeper want? for a woman than to be a mom. The junk food stuff could have gotten in Goop territory, but Garner saved it by admitting that she too succumbs to cravings.
But really, the most interesting stuff is the Ben Affleck stuff. He buys her diamonds? He buys her Pink diamonds. He also bought Jennifer Lopez a Pink diamond… I’m just sayin’. And Ben says stuff like ?If you love it, we can make it happen.? ???? Amazing. Hopefully, Ben and Jen really have turned a corner and their marriage is super-strong right now. Fingers crossed.

I can barely believe my eyes. Ben Affleck, looking like he enjoys being with his wife and oldest daughter? Ben Affleck being openly affectionate and lovey-dovey with his wife IN PUBLIC? Ben Affleck not being surly when the paparazzi are around? Who are you, Ben Affleck?!? I thought I knew you!
So these are new photos of Ben, Jen and Violet in LA yesterday. Jennifer is ??? God knows how many months pregnant. This pregnancy seems to be much more low-key than her two previous pregnancies – there are still lots of photos of Jennifer and the girls, but she?s taken it down a notch and they?re not getting photographed on a daily basis at this point. This isn?t even the first time (during this pregnancy) where Ben Affleck seems to be enjoying some face-time with his family, although this New Affleck (Affleck 2.0: The Loving Father & Husband Version) has never, in my memory, been so cutesy with his wife. Yes, he?ll hold her hand, but it usually comes with a scowl. I kind of like this new Ben. I wish I could see them like this more often. Usually, whenever the paparazzi are shooting Ben and his family, Ben almost always looks like he wants to curl up and die.
So why does Ben seem so affectionate? Is it just because his lovely wife is preggo and Ben is just trying to be a better dude? Is it because Ben might finally be getting his longed-for son? Jennifer is reportedly pregnant with a son this time, so maybe Ben is just excited about all of the ball games and boy things he?ll be sharing with his son. Or is there another, sketchier reason? Remember how Ben?s name was mentioned often in all of those reports about those high-stakes, underground poker games in Hollywood? Tobey Maguire just settled in one of lawsuits stemming from the games. But I?m sure that?s nothing. It?s just a coincidence!

Grabbing an afternoon pick-me-up, Jennifer Garner was spotted out in Santa Monica, California with a cup of Starbucks in-hand today (November 14).
Showing off her pearly whites for the shutterbugs, the casually clad expectant momma was all smiles as she and daughter Seraphina breezed passed the photogs.
In other news, Jennifer recently revealed that her "Butter" sex scene with hunky Aussie actor Hugh Jackman was less than pleasant to partake in, telling E!, "Of course, it was like the first day we worked together"
Garner later added, "It's always like that.It's always like, 'It's nice to meet you, now let's moan and groan.' I'm such a huge fan of his. It was so horrifying."

| | Jennifer Garner: Rachel Zoe won't let me wear maternity clothes! | | Added 12 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

If you?ve been watching The Rachel Zoe Project for long enough, you get to know how Rachel works with some of her bigger clients. Most of the big names don?t actually want to appear on the show, but Rachel must have worn some of them down, because many end up doing at least one appearance. You get an idea of these celebrities not only from their brief appearances, but by how Rachel and her staff talk about the clients. Like, Zoe Saldana comes across as a know-it-all pill who thinks she can pull off anything straight from the runway. Kate Hudson seems flaky and self-absorbed, and she and Rachel have a very sycophantic relationship. Johnny Weir is always fabulous, and he can work stilettos better than most women. Demi Moore is a demanding perfectionist about her ?look?. Cameron Diaz wants what no one else has, and Rachel will do anything to get it for her.
Quite honestly, Jennifer Garner comes across the best out of all of Zoe?s clients. I may hate Garner?s casual style - which I?m guessing she does herself - but on red carpets, Jennifer pretty much just wears what Rachel tells her to wear, and she can look decent/good to great. Garner even did a sit-down interview once for TRZP, and she admitted that she really doesn?t know much about fashion, but whatever she?s learned, she?s learned at Rachel Zoe?s feet. I get the feeling that Zoe pushes Garner to wear more vintage, to really pour on the glamour for big occasions, and to go with big designers like Oscar de la Renta and Valentino instead of experimenting with lesser-known labels.
Anyway, now I know something else about Rachel Zoe?s relationship with Garner - Jennifer claims that Rachel won?t let her wear maternity clothes. Rough!
Before giving birth in March, stylist Rachel Zoe was one of the most fashionable pregnant women in Hollywood — so it comes as no surprise that her client Jennifer Garner is too.
“Rachel is still determined not to put me in maternity clothes,” Garner, 39, told reporters at a special screening of Butter at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre in Hollywood Sunday.
“I think she was so little when she was pregnant, she didn’t wear them. Sooner or later, she is going to have to put me in them!” Garner laughed. “Eventually that’s going to happen, but so far she’s gotten her way!”
The Lanvin-clad actress — currently expecting her third child with husband of six years Ben Affleck, 39 — added that she has about “four months to go” until her due date.
“Jen has always wanted three kids,” a source recently told Us Weekly. “This was her plan all along.”

So I?m guessing that the wrinkled Lanvin is not maternity-wear? Ugh. On one side, I understand that Rachel is just trying to ensure that her client have the best styles available to her and maybe Rachel is taking this as a personal challenge to find great clothes that will work as maternity-wear. On the other side, it feels like Rachel expects every girl she works with to starve, even when they?re pregnant. Rough.

Jennifer Garner was all over the place this weekend. She pap?d herself and her daughters again, of course, like always, but she also did two different red carpets. On Saturday night, it was an event called ?Reel Stories, Real Lives? - Ben Affleck was not in attendance, but Russell Brand was, and he and Garner were friendly on the red carpet. The Saturday night photos are the ones where Garner is wearing a black lace dress and tuxedo jacket. Then last night she did the AFI Fest premiere of her new film, Butter. Those are the pics where she?s wearing a wrinkled, one-shoulder maternity cocktail dress by Lanvin in what seems like a very dark navy blue.
Besides the wrinkles - which she gets a pass for because she?s super-preggo - I really like the Lanvin. It?s a different choice for Garner, and I applaud her for trying something that she normally wouldn?t. I like the ?sari? effect in a cocktail dress - it reminds me, in design, of that mint green Valentino sari that Jennifer Lopez wore to the Oscars? when J.Lo was with Ben. Ben wasn?t at the AFI Fest premiere either.
Should I say something about Jennifer?s bump? Much like Jessica Simpson?s it looks way more natural and real than Beyonce?s. I think Jennifer is carrying very well with this pregnancy - she seems a lot smaller than she did when she was pregnant with Seraphina. I much prefer the Lanvin dress to the black lace one too - the lace one looks like she’s a knocked-up widow.
Here’s a question: does pregnancy make your lips bigger? Because her lips look HUGE.

Always one to delve into the happenings when the holiday comes around each year, Jennifer Garner didn't let her pregnancy get in the way of her Halloween celebrations.
The expecting actress stepped out on Monday (October 31) while showing off her growing bump in a black and purple witch costume complete with a cute, pointy hat.
Miss Garner proudly strolled past paparazzi as she made her way over to pick up eldest daughter Violet Affleck from her schoolhouse in Santa Monica, California.
The outing comes as Jen will most certainly be dressing up her adorable 5-year-old and her little sister Seraphina for what's sure to be a sugar-filled night in the Garner/Aflleck household.

Stepping out for a delicious meal to start the day, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner were spotted having breakfast in Santa Monica this morning (October 26).
The ?Good Will Hunting? hunk and his ?Catch and Release? wife were joined by their daughter Seraphina as they strolled past a swarm of shutterbugs.
In career news, Ben is teaming up with his good friend Matt Damon for a new project based on the life of Whitey Bulger, a notorious Boston criminal.
Affleck told press, "Matt and I have been looking for something to do together for some time. We've heard about Whitey Bulger since we were kids, and we are excited by the prospect of putting it on screen."

Here’s pregnant Jennifer Garner, working some Louboutin heels and a black skirt and jacket paired with a navy blue top with sequins on it. When I first saw a smaller photo of Garner’s outfit I thought that the pattern on the front of her shirt was lace, not sequins. Either way she’s wearing navy blue with black, something that’s generally considered a fashion no-no. She looks great, though, especially considering her kind of hit-or-miss style when she’s not pregnant. As Kaiser has mentioned, Garner’s pregnant style is an improvement over how she regularly dresses.
Pregnancy really agrees with Garner, and even her more casual pregnant style is looking more put together than usual. Here she is getting coffee on Tuesday. She’s got some great boots paired with formfitting jeans, a very nice striped silk shirt and what looks like the same black jacket she was wearing yesterday. I love this look.
On Sunday Garner went to the farmer’s market with her husband and their girls and she looks like she put just as much thought into her everyday outfit there. She’s stepped up her game a little and it shows. Ben even picked up flowers for his wife. I like this family and I hope they’re doing well. We’ve heard all sorts of rumors about Ben’s potential wandering eye, which ring true given his well known commitment-phobe history. They seem solid though and like they’re looking forward to their new arrival. Whether it’s a boy or a girl, I’m sure it will be thrilling for them to welcome a fourth member of their family.

Looking to have enjoyed her lunch date, Jennifer Garner was all smiles for the paparazzi while out and about in sunny Brentwood, California yesterday (October 11).
Having just departed from grabbing a yummy dish at Tavern Restaurant, the expectant momma showed off her classically chic style, wearing a black sweater, leather shoulder bag, a-line skirt and a patent pair of pumps.
Meanwhile, the third-time mom-to-be and hubby Ben Affleck are reportedly looking forward to the addition of a baby boy when Jen gives birth early next year.
The pair, who are already proud parents of daughter Violet and Seraphina are excited over the news, as Life & Style tells that Ben is elated to have a "little sports buddy" and "can't wait to take his son to baseball games and play catch with him."
