Perhaps the hardest part of a break-up is parting ways with all of the cozy oversized sweatshirts, t-shirts, and jackets you’ve stolen from your now ex-boyfriend. Clearly, Selena Gomez understands the struggle because even though music’s hottest couple called it quits days ago, she’s still holding on to The Weeknd’s stuff.
The 25-year-old singer was all smiles biking around L.A. Tuesday, showing no apparent signs of despair from her recent break-up … unless you count her wardrobe choice. Gomez was dressed in a bright green-and-black wind-breaker that her ex-boyfriend previously wore in early September when they stepped out together in New York City.

The “Bad Liar” singer completed her casual day look with a pair of black leggings and white tennis shoes and a messy top-knot to keep her hair away from her face. Gomez’s particular choice in jacket raises some questions regarding the sudden split that shocked the internet. Is Gomez trying to send a message to her ex? Or is this the singer’s way of showing that there are no hard feelings between them?
Either way, we applaud Gomez and The Weeknd for making the mature decision to call it quits while remaining friendly during their publicized break-up.

A source exclusively confirmed to PEOPLE that their break-up was due to their conflicting schedules, “It’s been hard with him being on tour and her shooting in New York. That wasn’t easy on them.”
While the couple was constantly spotted traveling the world for The Weeknd’s concerts (and constantly sharing clothes all the while), the insider revealed that it was still difficult for them to maintain their relationship and “that played a part in them getting distant.”
Naturally after nearly a year together, the stars are finding it difficult to adjust to their newly single lives. “It’s been hard for them to come to the realization that this is the direction things were heading, but it’s been hard for months,” the insider revealed. “It’s over for now, but they’re still in touch.”
