Christie Brinkley is always a baddie in a bikini.
Brinkley, 71, showed off her famous curves in a two-piece while taking a selfie in front of a homemade, shell-adorned mirror. In the pic, which she shared via Instagram on Thursday, January 15, she wore a black top featuring triangle cups and halter straps. Brinkley styled the piece with high-waisted, boy-short bottoms.
Brinkley went makeup-free in the pics and showed off her natural beauty. Her blonde hair was parted to the side and styled in a soft blowout. The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model moved closer to the mirror as fans swiped through her carousel of photos. She gave the camera a big smile while posing.
“I shell attempt to distract you from the important news you sea on Insta then I’ll clam up and you can scallop back to the more pressing issues of the day,” Brinkley captioned her punny post. “PS I made this over the 20 + years we’ve been here in Turks&Caicos from things I find on the beach . 🩵🐚💙 🕊️🦜✌️🌴🦩🌺🪸🌝✨🌈🌤️🌊🦑🐬 #seashell #shell #seashellart.”

In 2017, Christie returned to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit while posing with Sailor, whom she shares with ex-husband Peter Cook, and Alexa Ray, 40, whom she welcomed with ex-husband Billy Joel.
At the time, she gushed about how special it was to pose with her girls.
“This is a real full circle moment for me,” she said. “I can get very emotional about this. How many years ago, I was that insecure girl hoping that I would be good enough for the magazine. So to see my daughters now having the same thoughts I had, and to be able to see them actually be there on the job, was definitely a big moment.”
She added, “I couldn’t even believe my ears when I got the call … to shoot [me and my] daughters. I was thrilled.”
