Bella Hadid may be one of the most well-traveled models around. After a whirlwind Fashion Week, where she walked every major runway from New York to Paris, the 20-year-old has been busy crisscrossing the globe—only this time, it appears to be in search of more leisurely pursuits. In the last month, Hadid has jetted to Dubai for her first skydiving experience, followed by an afternoon on a yacht offshore, before heading to the beaches of Cabo San Lucas to celebrate a friend’s birthday. Hadid is back in the States (for now), but she is still channeling vacation style. Why, just yesterday in New York, Hadid wore an optic white string bikini top that felt far too cool to stay by the pool.
Styling swimwear in the city is no easy feat, to be sure, and it all comes down to what you pair it with. Hadid, for example, gave the look polish through a monochromatic palette and a cropped Mikhael Kale sweatshirt that revealed a glimpse of the triangle top underneath. The extreme bell sleeves were worn long and loose, lending the athleisure a distinct Hood By Air vibe, while the bold laces running up and down them tied in with her matching string bikini statement. Hadid’s Brashy Studio trousers were just as noteworthy—see the motocross-inspired seams at the pocket and knee and all-over metal detail. She grounded the moment with simple white sneakers and mirrored sunglasses by Roberi & Fraud—an accessory that, much like her swimsuit, is sure to get extra mileage come spring break.
