Hot off the heels of the launch of her Dream Out Loud line for Kmart, Selena Gomez has announced yet another design collaboration.

The Wizards of Waverly Place star has just signed on as the style ambassador for the Adidas NEO label. While new work projects usually serve as a welcome distraction from breakups, we're not sure this one will afford Gomez that luxury.

Just last month, her off-and-on boyfriend Justin Bieber also happened to team up with NEO as a spokesperson. Whether or not the two will cross paths when working for the sporty line, one thing's for sure: their combined influence will undoubtedly have trendy teens eager to hit the gym in NEO's sporty duds.

Gomez's personal style is sure to come across in the brand's items, as she's taking a hands-on role in creating a new collection with the company.

"I am really enjoying being involved with the design process and NEO is letting me have fun with this," she said. "I get to wear the clothes first and have a voice and an opinion and I can't wait to see the results of our new collection.  I'm excited that it also allows my fans to be involved and they can come with me on this journey."

Whether or not she'll move forward on that journey as a single lady or not remains to be seen.
