Alessandra Ambrosio enjoyed the holiday week between Christmas and New Year’s with a fun family getaway to her homeland of Brazil.
The 42-year-old supermodel — who recently stole the spotlight at Art Basel — was seen soaking up the sun in a string bikini on a beach in the coastal city of Florianópolis on Saturday.
She rocked a wide-brimmed hat and designer shades as she added a bit of drama with a sheer white wrap.
Her trademark brunette tresses were kept long and loose while she accessorized with a taupe tote, a silver necklace and a set of bangle bracelets.
Alessandra was joined by her adorable 11-year-old son, Noah, who smiled as she wrapped her arms around him with a towel.

The beach getaway comes after Alessandra opened up about her art collection ahead of her appearance at the annual art fair Art Basel.
‘My collection mainly consists of black-and-white photos. Some are by photographers such as Herb Ritts, Helmut Newton, Patrick Demarchelier and Ellen von Unwerth,’ she explained to Ocean Drive magazine.
‘I also treasure my guitar, which was painted by the Gemeos brothers. They are the most amazing Brazilian street artists that I genuinely adore. Each piece holds a special place in my heart!’
Alessandra went on to say she also appreciates artists Damien Hirst, Mr. Brainwash and Andy Warhol, ‘and I have pieces from them that are remarkable.
‘Their ability to perfectly capture a moment or emotion is just so special,’ she added.
The model spent 13 years as a Victoria’s Secret Angel and earned recognition as one of the highest-paid models globally.
‘Over the years, the industry has seen evolution, but there’s more work ahead,’ she said of the fashion world. ‘I feel it needs to be more inclusive and representative of the amazing, diverse beauty we see in real life.’
She also revealed what is most important to her in life these days. ‘Three things I can’t live without are love, family and my friends.’

As for her style icons, Alessandra previously told Harper’s Bazaar: ‘Brigitte Bardot, Grace Kelly, Marilyn Monroe, because they carried themselves with confidence and a sense of fun. They also embraced a timeless look.’
The beauty also divulged how her relationship with her appearance has changed over the years. ‘I think I’ve developed an inner confidence. I didn’t expect modelling to last, but here I am still doing it and loving it.
‘So, that has made me feel that I can embrace my look at every stage of my life.’
Alessandra shares Noah and daughter Anja, 15, with her ex-partner Jamie Mazur. In August, the model shared a sweet birthday tribute to her mini-me daughter.
‘Happy 15th birthday my forever baby girl @anjaambrosiom,’ the Brazilian beauty began in the caption, before adding a line in Portuguese ‘!!! Mamãe teama infinitame!!!’ which translates in English to ‘Mommy loves you endlessly.’
