Selena Gomez clearly got the memo that red is her color, as she has rocked the seductive shade on so many occasions this year.

As well as wearing a stunning red dress to the Golden Globe awards and attending boyfriend Benny Blanco’s 36th birthday in a plunging sequin red dress with a thigh-high slit, the 31-year-old Only Murders in the Building star also rocked a fiery red number for an appearance on the SXSW panel.

For an appearance at the star-studded SXSW festival in Austin, Texas, the Wizards of Waverly Place alum poured her curves into a daring red Alexander McQueen mini dress, which came complete with some attention-grabbing off-the-shoulder puff sleeves.

The Rare Beauty mogul teamed her red mini dress with some sexy sheer stockings, black pointed-toe Versace Medusa heels, and gold Kendra Scott earrings. She covered up with an oversized The Frankie Shop dark denim 'William' jacket, which she wore while speaking on the SXSW festival's Mindfulness Over Perfection: Getting Real On Mental Health panel.

Selena Gomez Opens Up About Hitting Rock Bottom

With new music and a new relationship, the "Lose You to Love Me" singer seems to be living her best life right now; but it wasn't always this way. Selena got very candid while speaking on the mental health panel, and explained that she had to hit rock bottom before seeking the right help and finally getting to where she is today.

The "Love On" singer has been open with her fans about suffering with the autoimmune disease lupus, as well as anxiety and bipolar disorder. While speaking on the panel, Selena reflected on her mental health struggles which she addressed in her 2022 Apple TV+ documentary, My Mind and Me, and confessed: "I will say this, you can't force someone to do it (address their mental health.) It just doesn't work. There was a lot of people that cared about me more than I cared about myself that really wanted me to do things I wasn't ready for."

"I had to hit my rock bottom and I had to do it at my time. I'd like to think and hope that I'm in a better place now," she continued.

"It makes me sick to hear the things that I was saying about myself in the beginning. It bums me out. But I think everyone can relate to that feeling. It's important to speak to yourself with kindness, but I don't think I really understood that. It's funny because all the things I was [expletive] about then, I'm grateful for now."
