Glistening under the sun and serving up some serious Ariel vibes, Halle Bailey's recent Instagram shares have her followers enthralled.
The radiant 23-year-old star of The Little Mermaid channeled her on-screen character with a beach-ready look that was both stunning and artistic.
In a fresh set of mirror selfies, Halle donned a blue bikini top, perfectly paired with a figure-hugging long skirt.
As she posed in a sunlit hallway, her candy apple red manicure shimmered, adding a pop of color against her blue ensemble. "They know you’re an angel," Halle captioned the photo, accentuating it with a wave, blue heart, and butterfly emoji.

For many, Halle is not just Ariel; she's also recognized as one-half of the Grammy-nominated musical sensation Chloe x Halle, alongside her sister, Chloe Bailey.

Speaking of Chloe, just last week, the dazzling Bailey sisters treated fans to a pool day series on their individual Instagram stories. Donning chic swimsuits, the duo showcased their enviable figures while enjoying a serene day by the pool.

In a cozy setup featuring a wooden cabana and a plush patio couch, Halle shared glimpses of her relaxation time. Fans were treated to a close-up of her manicure, and a sunlit selfie of the sisters, both sporting sleek black sunglasses.
Chloe, equally engaged with her fans, shared her moments of relaxation. In one story, she's seen making playful expressions, her nails flaunting a sparkly turquoise hue.
These pool escapades followed shortly after the sisters' refreshing getaway to St. Lucia. Both Baileys indulged in the island's popular mud baths.
Last month, Halle and Chloe shared photos of themselves covered in rejuvenating mud. While Halle's yellow Montce one-piece highlighted her curves, Chloe opted for a vibrant blue bikini. A mud-masked sister selfie from the trip stood as a testament to their bond.

The Grown-ish star reflected on how her own childhood would have been positively influenced had she seen a person of color portraying an iconic character like Ariel.
She noted: “What that would have done for me, how that would have changed my confidence, my belief in myself, everything.”
She concluded by stressing the importance of representation, asserting: “Things that seem so small to everyone else, it's so big to us.”
