Sofía Vergara Soaks Up the Sun in a Hot Pink Bikini in ’90s Throwback

We can always count on Sofía Vergara's Instagram for two things: inspiring fashion and rare throwbacks.

But in the past couple weeks, the America's Got Talent judge has really been treating us to throwbacks, offering up a modeling pic where she sported a shiny, gold bikini, as well as a pair of portraits that made her look like an old Hollywood actress.

Now, Vergara is continuing her trip down memory lane, with a photo she posted to her Instagram Story. In the pic, the 49-year-old star sports a hot pink, two-piece swimsuit that would make Elle Woods proud, while holding hands with a couple of kids. The queen of eyewear also dons a pair of black shades, while making a kissy face towards the sky.

“TBT Miami the ’90s,” she wrote over the photo.

Vergara didn't provide any context for the photo, but we know the Modern Family actress moved to Miami when she was only a teenager, following her birth and childhood in Colombia.

It was during her teenage years that Vergara earned her first modeling gigs and roles in television ads. The star has shared many of these early career moments on Instagram, like when she posted a Pepsi ad that she filmed when she was only 17 years old. “#tbt How it all began. Santa Marta, Colombia. The 80’s,” she captioned the clip.

And while Vergara is always inspiring us with her style, it's clear she's been rocking stellar fashion for decades. In a different throwback that she posted last August, the actress showed off a blue fishnet dress, saying, “#tbt Los Angeles...early 2000s.”

We never get tired of your throwbacks, Sofía.
