Earlier this week, Violet was photographed grabbing some lunch with a friend, looking happy as the two met up in an outdoor table at a coffee shop. The young women were photographed as they met up and chatted, with both of them showing each other different things on their phones.  

They were also photographed walking together, with Violet wearing a cool and comfortable look made up of straight light-wash jeans and a yellow t-shirt with a French tuck.

The T-shirt reads "Watch for Deer, West Virginia," referencing her mother's home state and a place where the Affleck-Garner family has spent a great deal of time and has grown to love. 

Violet rounded out the look with her '70s vibe glasses and some key accessories, including some gorgeous Chloe Nama shoes and a vintage Chloe Marcie Bucket bag.

More details about Garner's love for West Virginia

Jennifer Garner has often discussed her love of West Virginia, where her parents raised her alongside her three sisters. In previous occasions, Garner has discussed how important those Southern values are to her and how she's worked hard at passing those down to her children.

"It's really important for my kids to see that everyone doesn't have the lives they see in Los Angeles," said Jennifer in an interview with Southern Living

"That doesn't reflect the rest of the world. I want them to grow up with the Southern values I had—to look at people when they say hello and to stop and smell the roses. If I could do half as good a job as my mom did, I'd be pretty happy."
