Gabrielle Union has been busy as of late. Whether she's promoting her children's book, her upcoming collection of personal essays or her Flawless hair care products, the woman never stops (and we're hoping she'll make an appearance in that new Bring It On spinoff).

However, that doesn't mean the multi-talented star can't make time to show off some stunning outfits on Instagram. We can always count on the Being Mary Jane actress to offer fashion showstoppers and she certainly did not disappoint this time around.

The 48-year-old actress posted a slideshow of photos in a bright, grapefruit-colored mini dress, with a caption that said, "Lemme holla atchu real quick."

Union's knitted outfit is a blood orange Ali mini dress from Roberta Einer. The fiery dress features a hand-crocheted neckline and cuffs, as well as an elastic side panel for a comfortable fit.

The colorful design was paired with a red and beige small flap bag from Chanel, featuring raffia, jute thread & gold-tone metal. Union also wore some Vale jewelry, including a stunning Titan ring. Finally, she completed the look with a pair of heels from the Gia x Rosie HW collection (which you can get here) that feature a suede woven strap.

Union turned to her regular collaborators to help bring together the look. Thomas Christos Kikis and Sydney Engelhart styled the outfit, while Tasha Reiko Brown brought the glam by applying some Chanel Beauty makeup. Meanwhile, her upturned hairstyle was completed by Larry Jarah Sims.

Fellow celebs were obsessed with the stylish construction, like singer SZA, who posted a bunch of heart-eyed emojis and said, "she wylin." French model and actress Noémie Lenoir noted the dress's bold color, adding, "Orange is a new Black." Meanwhile, comedian Gabrielle Dennis replied to Union's caption, saying, "Sure, just know we can't hear nothing you're saying over all this damn beauty."

Union kills it with her outfit once again.
