In a season that’s seen everyone from Jennifer Lopez to Mariah Carey, Lauren Sanchezand Heidi Klum hit Aspen’s slopes, shops, and après-ski scene, Bella Hadid and her boyfriend Adam Banuelos have dropped in to bring the yeehaw to the celebrity-favored festive destination.
The couple were spotted just prior to New Year’s Eve, leaving Nobu’s Colorado outpost sushi restaurant Matsuhisa after a cozy dinner. Hadid wore a red and brown fur-trimmed Penny Lane-esque coat, with a navy bodycon mini-dress, barely black sheer tights, and vintage patchwork, dark red knee-high boots. The supermodel layered three gold necklaces: one plain chain, one a string of medallions that recalls a cowboy belt, and a bigger pendant. She also wore gold hoops, and her hair pulled back in a tight ponytail. A brown slouchy bag with a cow print strap dangled from her arm.
Banuelos kept up his usual aesthetic, tweaked just for the colder temperatures: a navy baseball cap and plaid brown and navy shacket, blue jeans, and blue cowboy boots.
Hadid ended 2024 on a jubilant note that’s deserving of a big yeehaw: in December, she announced she had been awarded Rookie of the Year by the National Cutting Horse Association. In an Instagram post about her win, she thanked Banuelos: “Adan always had faith in me, from the first day we rode together, which gave me confidence and faith in myself again.” And later that month, Hadid had a cameo in Yellowstoneplaying cowgirl Sadie and even wearing pieces from her own wardrobe for the role. The rest of December was spent in New York promoting Orebellaand dressing accordingly.
