Christie Brinkley is still an uptown girl

The former Sports Illustrated model, Christie Brinkley, 67, posted a new pic of herself wearing a tiny black bikini, knit coverup, and a large hat, before hitting the beach.

While there were some trolls among the praise, Brinkley has previously said she continues to show off sexy snaps for other women her age.

“I post these pictures because I hear from women my age all the time that say, ‘Thank you for changing the way people think about the numbers,’” she said last year.

“Everybody’s different, everybody’s unique,” she added. “But it’s like telling a gymnast she can’t do flips past a certain age. It doesn’t make sense. If you’ve got great legs, show them … Don’t be controlled by those numbers.”

Despite other supermodels like Paulina Porizkova, 56, returning to the pages of Sports Illustrated decades after their first appearances — as well as daughter Sailor Brinkley-Cook making the first-ever second-generation appearance in the glossy in 2017 — Brinkley, says her bikini days are now purely for fun.

“Been there, done that,” she exclaimed.
