Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco were spotted enjoying a romantic dinner last night at 4 Charles Prime Rib in New York City, just days ahead of the release of their long-anticipated joint album, I Said I Love You First. With their unique personal styles on display, the couple was clearly in love as they strolled into the popular steakhouse hand-in-hand.
This dinner on March 18, 2025, showcased Gomez's minimalist look, where she wore a tailored black blazer, a plunging silk black shirt, and matching baggy pants. Completing her outfit was a high-fashion accessory: Schiaparelli's iconic Face bag, known for its gold and enamel details fashioned into a sculptural representation of a face.
Blanco, on the other hand, embraced a more daring style. His outfit featured a billowing white linen print top paired with eye-catching tan cow-print trousers. Both donned pointed-toe, Western-style black leather boots, demonstrating their ability to merge their individual aesthetics creatively.
The couple, who announced their engagement in December 2024, is also generating excitement around their music. Their first album together is set to launch on March 21, and the lead single, Sunset Blvd, has already made its debut, capturing the essence of their relationship.
This album launch is a culmination of their romantic journey, which Blanco noted during an interview with Rolling Stone. “I think people think we’re like, this thing in Rolls-Royces, and like going around,” he shared. “We literally play like N64 and order Dominos. We’re just living our life every day.” Blanco mentioned that he has known Gomez since she was just 18, remarking on their shared history, “By the time we’re dating, it’s like, whoa. My biggest regret is that we didn’t get to do this earlier.”
In a playful exchange during their interview, Gomez reflected on Blanco’s kind nature, stating, “But genuinely, I think he’s incredibly kind, he’s supportive, he’s uplifting, he’s very, very smart.” Their rapport is infused with humor and endearment, marking their relationship with genuine affection.
The fashion stakes are high for Gomez and Blanco, who are often seen attending events with contrasting yet complimentary styles. Their looks vary from formal events like the Golden Globes and Oscars to casual outings like their recent dinner. Last week, they debuted the music video for Sunset Blvd, which nods to their first date in Los Angeles. Blanco recalled that moment, stating, “That was the best decision I have ever made in my life... I love you.”
Gomez’s choice of accessories further emphasizes her high-fashion sensibility. The $500 Déhanche belt she wore added an edgy touch to her monochrome ensemble, symbolizing the refined yet approachable aesthetic she has cultivated. Her style choices frequently reflect current trends, with her ensembles widely discussed in fashion circles.
The juxtaposition of styles between the couple — Gomez’s chic and polished look contrasted against Blanco’s whimsical, free-spirited attire — creates a dynamic that not only captures public interest but also showcases their unique personalities. Together, they have tapped into an emerging trend of couples in Hollywood who embrace distinct fashion identities while maintaining a harmonious relationship.
As they look forward to their wedding, both have expressed that there’s no rush to get married immediately. In the same Rolling Stone interview, Blanco noted Gomez’s penchant for planning their future weddings in her head while also sharing, “We’re very much a ‘take it one day at a time’ type of people.” Gomez added, “I genuinely feel like this is such a special time that we get to apply it to this album and really just pour our heart into it.”
Onlookers continue to be enchanted by the couple’s antics and their ability to turn mundane moments into fashionable events, compelling the public to watch their journey unfold both in love and music.
