The latest a-lister couple to get our attention is Selena and The Weeknd, and the pair were seen looking very loved up whilst on a date in Italy.
The pair were spotted at a museum in Florence, and Selena’s outfit was the perfect choice for a romantic getaway. The singer wore a floaty, ruffled frock in a delicate floral print and styled it with a pair of strappy heels and a longer length black jacket.
The dreamy dress is by designer label, Vilshenko. Its part of the SS17 collection, so isn’t available to buy just yet but you can shop similar floaty pieces in the current range at FarFetch (click right).

Roman Holiday: Selena gazed at the art in wonder, but it was The Weeknd who had her eye
Her 26-year-old boyfriend was more casually dressed, in black jeans and a jacket.
While the two have only just gone public with their fledgling romance, the seeds of their love were sewn when both performed at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2015.
The Weeknd - who was previously in an 18-month relationship with model Bella Hadid - is said to have been 'taken' with the Hands To Myself hitmaker when they first met at the lingerie giant's annual fashion show.

The look of lovers: The pair first met in 2015, but only began dating this year
An insider claimed: 'There were sparks when they first met at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2015.
'They both performed and The Weeknd was just taken by Selena.'
The source also claims that whilst Selena thought the Starboy singer - real name Abel Tesfaye - was 'cute', she wasn't about to step on any toes when the hunk was in a relationship.

Making memories: It was clear the young couple were happy and relaxed
Despite not wanting to cause a stir at the time, sources have since claimed Selena 'doesn't have any stipulations' about starting a relationship with the Can't Feel My Face hitmaker now that he's single, as she's never been close to Bella or her sister Gigi Hadid.
A source said previously: 'Selena is not good friends with either Gigi or Bella. She knows them through other people, but they are just acquaintances.
'She is friendly with them, but not friends with them... Selena and Gigi were never fond of each other, so Selena definitely doesn't have any stipulations about hooking up with, or dating, Bella's ex.'
Fresh-faced: Former Disney star Selena has a natural beauty about her
Meanwhile, despite the pair splitting two months ago, 20-year-old Bella still has feelings for The Weeknd.
An insider shared previously: 'She is actually not over The Weeknd. She still loves him. They are on fine terms, but she is bitter about the romance with Selena.
'She was not happy when all of that gossip went everywhere between The Weeknd and Selena. It really hurt her seeing Selena be all up on her man. She still feels like they have a connection.'
