sunglasses Selena Gomez hat heels hugo's sweater

Take that Justin Bieber! There's a sexy lady coming through!

Selena Gomez strutted her stuff when she wore oh-so-sexy peep-toe lace-up boots and a skimpy black dress for a Sunday brunch at Hugo's in Studio City. We aren't sure if Selena Gomez is trying get some attention from rumored new man Austin Mahone or if she's trying make Justin Bieber jealous after his recent strip club photo scandal -- but either way, she's certainly grabbed our attention!

For the brunch, the former Wizards of Waverly Place star paired her skimpy dress a tan sweater and a floppy hat. If she was going for effortlessly sexy -- she definitely nailed that look.

Recently Selena has been romantically linked to 17-year-old popstar Austin Mahone, who is often dubbed, "the next Justin Bieber." However last week, Austin denied the rumors to people People magazine, saying, "We're just friends."

The teen went on, "She's really cool...I mean, I think she's really pretty but every time I'm in L.A., she's like, 'Hey you're in L.A., lets hang out.' So it's cool."

We have no idea what "So it's cool" actually means -- but it sounds like something is brewing with Austin and Selena.

If the brunette beauty was trying to turn some heads -- she did a good job!
