Selena Gomez acquired colorful friendship bracelets while in London.

On Monday, Oct. 14, the singer-actress, 32, gave fans a glimpse on Instagram of her time in the U.K., where she helped roll out her new movie musical Emilia Pérez at the 2024 BFI London Film Festival.

In one snapshot, the Only Murders in the Building star posed with headphones on while sitting on a couch in a cream cardigan showing off her large amount of DIY friendship bracelets on her wrist.

On her Instagram Stories, Gomez gave fans another look at her friendship bracelets, with one spelling out “Emilia Perez,” while another had “Rare” on it, referencing her beauty brand.

In another Instagram post about the London trip, Gomez wrote that she is “so grateful” to her costars Zoe Saldaña, Karla Sofía Gascón and Adriana Paz plus director Jacques Audiard “for giving me an opportunity to tell a very special story in Emilia Pérez.

“Thank you to everyone who came and asked thoughtful questions. The friendship bracelets were cool too,” she added.

This isn’t the first we’ve seen of Gomez’s accessories. The singer, who has been friends with Taylor Swift for years, posted a snap of her bracelet collection while attending one of Swift’s Los Angeles Eras Tour date in August 2023 with her sister Gracie, 11.

Among her latest Instagram carousel, Gomez posed for a mirror selfie in one shot, showing her wearing the black Ellie Saab dress she donned for the Emilia Pérez BAFTA Film preview event that the cast attended Oct. 13.

The musical won two awards — including the best actress honor for its ensemble of women — when it had its world premiere at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival in May.

It then screened at Toronto International Film Festival on Sept. 9, before having its New York Film Festival premiere Sept. 30.

While speaking at TIFF, Gomez told PEOPLE she felt “grateful” for all the “overwhelming” things happening in her professional life. “It’s such a wonderful gift,” Gomez insisted of her career highs.
