Christie Brinkley clearly made sure that when the modeling genes passed down, they passed down aplenty, evidenced by the career of her youngest daughter, Sailor Brinkley Cook.
The 25-year-old stunned her followers with a new photograph of herself on the Sacred + Divine Instagram page, a candle company for which she is the creative director.
In the picture, she posed in front of a giant rock formation wearing a black string bikini that highlighted her insanely toned physique, surrounded by candles and holding one herself.

"Here's to a summer filled with sun, sand, and Sacred + Divine," the caption with her photo read, and awed fans took to the comments section with compliments.

She shared a lengthy and reflective message for the occasion, writing: "For the first birthday in quite a while I didn't catch the birthday blues. I held strongly to the belief in a version of myself that hasn't come to life yet & gave love to all the past versions that brought me here."
She continued: "This year I tried new things, moved through hardships with grace, celebrated my body, nourished my inner child, laughed more, cried less, became friends with the scary parts of my mind, made sure to dance at least twice a week, cherished my friendships, felt peace in my solitude, and found an incredible sense of true independence I've never felt before."
