Stephanie accessorized with a pair of dark aviators and gold earrings for a classic touch.

The beauty, who is dating Apple Music’s head of content Larry Jackson, also shared several Instagram moments of her vacation, posting another set of bikini shots with the text ‘looking for the sun’ on top. 

Steph’s vacation comes after she and Kim parted ways professionally last month after four years of working together.

As well as being the mother-of-two’s assistant, she used to accompany her on vacations, be her sounding board and even appeared in numerous episodes of family reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

It appears the Kim’ made a decision to let Stephanie go ‘because [she] couldn’t handle her growing responsibilities.’

In early 2017 Steph transitioned from the title of executive assistant to COO of Kardashian West Brands.

‘She was a good assistant but when Stephanie wanted to transition into a larger role with Kim’s brand and businesses, it just didn’t work,’ an insider told People.

‘Kim gave her the chance, but after a short period of time it became clear that Stephanie just didn’t have the knowledge to take on a role like that. Kim made an executive decision to part ways.’

Since the split things are said to be icy between the pair.

The insider added: ‘[Steph’s] still friendly with the other sisters but she and Kim aren’t really speaking.’

In late November, Steph shared a lengthy memo which many have interpreted as a dig at the reality television starlet.

‘Self care isn’t always Lush bath bombs & $20 face masks,’ she wrote in black text on a white page on her Instagram page. ‘Sometimes, it’s going to bed @ 8PM or letting go of a bad friend.’
