Christie Brinkley, 68, flaunts her toned pins in a hot pink summer dress and wellies as she enjoys a spot of gardening… after saying keeping slim gets harder as she ages

She’s the eighties model who gained worldwide fame thanks to her appearances on the cover of Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues. 

And Christine Brinkley looked better than ever on Monday as she showed off her toned legs in sizzling new snaps shared to Instagram.

The stunner, 68, posed for playful photos in a thigh-skimming hot pink summer dress paired with green wellies as she enjoyed a spot of gardening at home.

Looking fab! Christine Brinkley looked better than ever on Monday as she showed off her toned legs in sizzling new snaps shared to Instagram

Christine defied her age as she flashed plenty of skin in the off-the-shoulder number, with the Michigan-born star cinching in her waist with a colourful bumbag. 

She left her blonde locks loose for the occasion, while adding a further pop of colour with bright pink lipstick.

Christine looked in great spirits as she pulled off a number of leg-flashing poses while leaning on her garden hoe.

Captioning her snaps, she penned: ‘Just hoeing around the garden… I got a new cultivator‼️’

Christine’s garden photoshoot comes after she spoke about how she maintains her fabulous figure in a recent Instagram post, in which she also plugged her prosecco brand. 

‘When you eat too much at 68, it’s not as easy to lose the weight, so here’s a tip that’s tried and true, that will make you feel like your best you,’ said the model. 

She said to ‘avoid the sugar and do exercise, it’s not about the size of your thighs.’

The blonde beauty went on to add: ‘Vibrant good health will be your prize! Reminder this month when you buy a bottle, you’ll put planting trees into full throttle!’
