Christie Brinkley is living her best life while soaking up the sun.

The 68-year-old supermodel took to Instagram on Sunday to share a snap from her private estate in the Turks and Caicos.

"Grateful!" she captioned the photo, in which she's seen in the $250 USD Kos swimsuit by Melissa Odabash, candidly walking near the shore with her head tilted back, smiling.

It didn't take long for fans to chime in, praising Brinkley for her happy and care-free photo.

"Christie! This is the happiest you've ever looked. Pure bliss. You're aging so gracefully. A natural beauty," one Instagram user commented.

"In your element! You look great!" another echoed.

"Beautiful," someone else wrote, while another added, "Just stunning!"

"How can she still look so perfect 40 years later?! Amazing!" one fan asked.

"You've still got it!" someone else added.

"You don't age! Gorgeous. Love the suit."

Last month, Brinkley opened up about feeling discriminated against due to her age, and why the term "aging gracefully" should be about more than just looks. The admission followed an article that included the star in a list of celebrities over 50 who "prove" that "being older is attractive."

While the article was meant to empower women not to fear growing older, Brinkley worried it focused too much on a woman's ability to remain looking youthful.

"The expression 'aging gracefully' should not be about one’s looks but about the attitude and energy one offers the world," Brinkley wrote via Instagram. "Looking good is a byproduct of feeling great and showing up in the world with a heart full of good intentions, and good energy!"

"Women of every age belong everywhere they feel like being, and we can do whatever we set our minds to," she continued, adding that any woman can make an impact, regardless of her age.

"We may not always succeed or win, But we’re old enough to learn from our mistakes and keep growing and evolving so we are a force to be reckoned with. There are a million older and wiser women out there reshaping and rebranding the numbers," she penned.
