Selena Gomez has returned to film season 4 of Only Murders in the Building and her outfits are giving us a sense of déjà vu.

Taking to Instagram Story on Saturday, March 23, Gomez, 31, posted a mirror selfie from her dressing room. In the caption, she humorously mentioned being dressed like her boyfriend, Benny Blanco, on set.

In the photo, Gomez looked stylish in a red checked button-down paired with black houndstooth pajama pants. She added a long black duster and white slippers to complete her outfit. With her hair tied back in an updo and minimal makeup, Gomez exuded effortless charm.

Gomez made her relationship with Blanco official in December 2023. They had initially crossed paths years ago when he produced some of her music singles.

Blanco is a talented music producer and budding chef who is famous for his vibrant fashion sense. He can often be seen wearing bold prints, oversized hoodies, and relaxed button-down shirts. When he went to a Lakers game with Gomez in January, he chose to wear a floral jacket paired with a cream-colored shirt and pants. And at the GQ Men of the Year event earlier that year, Blanco made a statement in a red two-piece outfit, chunky white kitten heels, and a matching remote control in hand.
