Listen up, folks. If there’s one person who knows how to celebrate a milestone birthday in style, it’s Christie Brinkley. The iconic supermodel, who recently turned 70, reminded all of us just how timeless her beauty really is when she shared a series of stunning mirror selfies on her Instagram page. In these photos, she ditched her shirt and embraced her natural beauty, proving once again that age is just a number.
Christie’s caption was as inspiring as the photos themselves. “Looking in the mirror on my 70th birthday and what do I see? I’m finally happy with the person looking back at me,” she wrote. “I’m no longer critical or demanding; now I’m grateful and understanding. I’ve put this body through so much—broken every bone—but in tiny miracles, I’m all healed. In my heart and soul, I’m home. It’s taken 70 years to get here, and in tears and joy, I’ve found my happy. So now I’m going to end this poem before I get too sappy! Happy Birthday Indeed!”
Her fans, of course, are no strangers to Christie’s fabulous mirror selfies. Every time she posts, it’s like getting a front-row seat to her wardrobe. But this time was different. This wasn’t just about fashion—it was about self-acceptance and embracing the journey of life. And let’s be honest, Christie’s 70th birthday wasn’t just any ordinary day. She made sure to kick it off with a bang by heading off on a fabulous getaway.

Christie’s Beach Getaway: Family, Friends, and Fun
For her big day, Christie Brinkley didn’t just settle for a quiet dinner. Oh no, she went all out. She celebrated her birthday with a beach vacation surrounded by some of her closest friends and her two youngest children, Jack and Sailor. Now, that’s what I call knowing how to party right.
And if you think that’s all, you’re wrong. Christie shared a heartwarming post on Instagram where she gushed about her birthday bash. “My happy birthday party was a blast! My kids, Jack and Sailor, planned it all to surprise me! (Wish you could have come, Alexa!),” she wrote. “They even got the sunset to put on a show!”
But wait, there’s more. Christie also mentioned how her wonderful neighbors arrived with the most creative handmade gifts she’ll always cherish. And then there were her friends Daniel Benedict and Cinema Society, who surprised her all the way from NYC. They came wrapped in paper and ribbons by Gabby Karan as gifts! The evening was magical, filled with dining and dancing under the stars. Christie described it as “some enchanted evening.”

Christie’s Bold Response to Critics
Now, let’s not forget how Christie handled critics last year at the age of 69. She had the most epic response, and it was nothing short of iconic. “Whoa Nelly! The Wrinkle Brigade is out in full force in the comment thread! They are the people who scan celebrities’ pages, hoping to find some cellulite, wrinkles, or anything they can point to critique,” she wrote alongside a June 2023 selfie. “But when those people appear, there are others who pop up with messages so kind and valuable. Those are the comments that restore my faith and make my heart sing! Thank you sweet souls. P.S. I don’t have hair on my chest obviously (I thought!) iPhone has a tendency to create weird things in the shadow. But so what if I did?”
