She's juggling her parental responsibilities with estranged husband Ben Affleck in a self-described 'modern family' way.

And Jennifer Garner couldn't have looked happier to be enjoying some quality time with her two doppelganger daughters, Violet, 10, and Seraphina, seven, as they headed out on a shopping trip in Los Angeles on Thursday.

Looking elegant in a monochrome ensemble, the actress, 44, kept things sartorially simple in a sleeveless white shirt and loose fitting black trousers as she tended to her little ones.

Jennifer and Ben's little boy Samuel, four, did not join them on their day out, but the proud mother seemed to be making the most of her off-duty afternoon with her lookalike daughters.

Seraphina looked cuter than ever in striped blue shorts and a white printed T-shirt as she bounded along with her mum.

Violet looked pretty in a simple navy dress fastened with a bright gold buckle in the middle.

The Hollywood star recently discussed her marital split from Ben Affleck, 43 - who whom she raises three children, Violet, 10, Seraphina, seven, and Samuel, four - with the Today show.

The couple publicly announced their split, which has yet to be legally finalised, the day after their tenth wedding anniversary last year.

Ben and Jennifer prompted reconciliation rumours in May when they whisked their kids off on holiday to Paris, France.

But Jennifer was sure to clear up any misconceptions about the getaway, insisting they are simple 'a modern family'.

She said: 'We are definitely a modern family.

'Ben was working in London on Justice League, and I felt like, "Well, the kids should have that experience". And he and I are great friends, and we just all went en masse.'

When the couple split last year, they were faced with a maelstrom of reports that the Argo director had been unfaithful with their three children's nanny.

This March, however, the Alias actress told Vanity Fair: 'We had been separated for months before I ever heard about the nanny.

'She had nothing to do with our decision to divorce. She was not a part of the equation. Bad judgment? Yes,' she conceded.

'It’s not great for your kids for [a nanny] to disappear from their lives.'
