Ambrosio wore a cute and sexy bright green knit dress, which had a keyhole opening at her midriff.

She carried a woven straw purse, and walked along in similar-looking sandals that looked to be made from rope. 

The mother of two painted her finger and toenails in matching shades of green, and had an emerald pendant necklace on her chest layered with other pieces of delicate jewelry.
