Russian-American model Anne V is living her best life under the sun in the Dominican Republic. The blonde beauty, who is perhaps best known for her 10 consecutive SI Swimsuit Issue apperances between 2005 and ’14, showed off her natural freckles, beachy waves and sun-kissed island girl glow.

She shared a series of fun photos with her 1.2 million Instagram followers on Dec. 20. The 37-year-old posed for an up-close and personal bare face selfie in the cover snapshot, and we need her to drop the skincare routine immediately. She flaunted her slim figure, washboard abs and toned legs in another snap as she donned a black-and-white bikini featuring a swirly print and modeled for a videographer also captured in the frame. She accessorized with a puka shell belly chain and a beaded anklet.

Anne, who has traveled to St. Petersburg, Russia, Cappadocia, Turkey, Portugal, Fiji, Desroches Island, Seychelles, Barreirinhas, Brazil, Guilin, China and more with the brand, included gorgeous sand, beach, palm tree and sun snaps as well.

“48hrs in 🇩🇴 did not disappoint 🌴📸❤️,” she captioned the carousel.

Svetlana Utkina Capiton and Kim Strother both commented a trio of fire emojis.

“Ugh I need me some island time 🙌,” Marlon du Toit added.

“Babe,” Justice Joslin wrote.

“You’re absolutely radiant! ❤️,” one fan chimed

“Hair kissed by sun💛💞,” another gushed.

Anne loves to travel to exotic destinations and often indulges in solo vacations. She told Harper’s Bazaar in 2012 that her most memorable trip was to Africa.

“I actually went by myself and went on a safari. It was one of the most spiritual, amazing, memorable trips I’ve ever gone on,” she shared. “Something inside of you just changes, it’s a really moving experience, you become a better person.”
