Salma Hayek's Sunflower-Yellow Bikini Is the Antidote to All of Your Winter Blues

Its no secret Salma Hayek is a fan of bikini photo shoots. Over the summer, the actor and producer littered her Instagram with swimsuit-clad photo dumps, showing off her covetable collection of colorful bikinis. But who says bikini pics should be restricted to a single season?

It’s no secret Salma Hayek is a fan of bikini photo shoots. Over the summer, the actor and producer littered her Instagram with swimsuit-clad photo dumps, showing off her covetable collection of colorful bikinis. But who says bikini pics should be restricted to a single season?

The House of Gucci star made a stellar return to Instagram this week by dropping a new bikini photo—winter be damned. This time, her set featured a twisted bow top and matching bottoms with side-tie details. Both were covered in a vibrant sunflower yellow with a forest green and pale pink floral design. She capped off the look with classic black cat-eye shades and a blood-red pedicure.

“#sundaymood,” she captioned the sunny picture.

Hayek opened up in 201 about why she often shares bikini-clad pictures of herself on Instagram. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, she explained that she finds the act “liberating.”

“I had to lose a lot of weight and exercise to get into the bikini towards the end of last year. I’m glad I took a lot of pictures, I have no shame on it, because it was the first week of the vacation,” she said at the time, adding that she began to work out more often at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. “But after that first week and when I heard that everybody was going back into quarantine, I started eating again,” she joked.

As an associate editor at HarpersBAZAAR.com, Chelsey keeps a finger on the pulse on all things celeb news. She also writes on social movements, connecting with activists leading the fight on workers' rights, climate justice, and more. Offline, she’s probably spending too much time on TikTok, rewatching Emma (the 2020 version, of course), or buying yet another corset.
