Padma Lakshmi Sizzles in a Cheeky Pink String Bikini While on Vacation in Hawaii

Padma Lakshmi is bringing the heat to her tropical trip. The Bravo's Top Chef host is currently enjoying a lavish trip to Hawaii, and in between a "breathtaking helicopter tour" and a lei-making class with her daughter (which she documented in her Instagram Stories), the former model shared a look at one of her stunning getaway ensembles.

How to Watch

Watch Top Chef Season 21 Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo and next day on Peacock.

In a March 30 Instagram post, Padma put her sexy poolside number on display. The fashionable foodie looked radiant in a bright pink bikini as she posed by crystal-clear water at the Timbers Kauai at Hokuala. The two-piece swimsuit featured a patterned magenta print and string ties on both the top and bottoms. Padma showed off the high-cut swimsuit from every angle as she twirled around. She completed her look with a set of layered necklaces and let her tousled brunette tresses tumble down her shoulders.

"New perfume? No, just chlorine and the Hawai’i breeze," she wrote, adding, "Hanging by the pool."

This is definitely not the first time Padma has flaunted her incredible swimsuit style. Last March, she soaked up the sun in a tiny blue string bikini which included a halter top and low-rise bottoms. The bestselling author was glowing in the barely-there two-piece as she relaxed by the ocean. Prior to that, Padma displayed her (very) toned abs while she rocked a sexy black bikini in the Dominican Republic. "Feelin' fine," she captioned her January 2020 post.
