However, he wasn&#8217;t sure when or if those talks would continue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>On Wednesday, Lively and Baldoni met at the Daniel Patrick Moynihan United States Courthouse in accidentally matching outfits. The &#8220;Gossip Girl&#8221; alumna wore a muted green suit with an oversized blazer and loose trousers. The blazer was layered over a pink button-up shirt, with an olive-green striped shirt on top.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Similarly, Baldoni wore a deep green overcoat over a white t-shirt and gray pants.
