Sofia Richie is living the life of sweet, simple luxury. The stunning model, 22, took to Instagram on January 26 and shared a snap of herself sporting a black, string two-piece. The bottoms of Sofia’s bikini featured a cheeky cut, while the top tied around her upper waist, featuring two connecting spaghetti straps. Sofia’s gorgeous dirty blonde locks cascaded down her back, and Sofia looked simply sun-kissed.

The photographer of the snap, however, captured Sofia in a totally candid repose. Sofia appeared to be enjoying a book by the pool, before turning around to have her picture taken. As if it was a reflex, Sofia was still model-ready for when the pictures snapped, and gave a cute, funny, squinting expression at the camera while dangling her book in one hand.
It was a completely different expression from what fans are used to seeing the supermodel work for any given photo — candid or otherwise. Still, they absolutely loved seeing this side of the young model. “You’re glowing,” one fan wrote, adding, “and look at that smile.” More fans left a string of heart emojis and heart-eye emojis for Sofia to find later on in the day. Overall, though, they were so happy to see Sofia starting 2021 off with a smile after a difficult end to 2020.

Although some fans speculated that Sofia may have moved on with Cha Cha Matcha co-founder Matthew Morton, 27, nothing ever came of those rumors. But Sofia is showing her fans how to live their best, single life. She shared photos in two-pieces, loungewear, and has even taken some time get together with her gal pals. We cannot wait to see Sofia continue to embrace 2021!
