Hailee Steinfeld flashes her abs in a bikini top as she shares a behind-the-scenes look

Hailee Steinfeld took to Instagram on Thursday to share a behind-the-scenes look at her latest photo shoot which  took place at a mansion in the hills of Hollywood that had an impressive view of the city.  

The True Grit actress has created a new swimsuit line with her friend Francesca Aiello – who is behind Frankies Bikinis – called HailleXFrankies and the brunette bombshell served as model for the line which is already available.

The suits are colorful with a beachy 1970s feel; the look is reportedly inspired by California surf-and-sand culture.

The swimsuit designer then said: ‘The collection was really inspired by Hailee’s love for vintage prints, especially those of the ’70s era.

‘We were able to play with really fun prints and new fabrications to really make this exactly what she had envisioned.’  

In January Steinfeld admitted she wants to be ‘more present and mindful’ in her personal life in 2021.

The star has reflected on the way the pandemic has given her pause for thought and a chance to reflect on the balance between her career and home life.

She told Extra: ‘I think if this year has taught me anything it’s, my God, just how grateful I am. My appreciation for the people in my life, the people around me, has grown so much.

‘I’ve had more time – obviously we all have had this time that we’ve sorta been forced to sit with ourselves to think, maybe overthink, reflect on life for a moment.

‘I feel like I’ve learned what it means to be present and mindful in my personal life. I feel like I’ve always been that with my work and my life is just always on the go.

‘My intention for the New Year is just to be more present and mindful in my personal life and take care of myself properly.’

The actress and singer turned 24 recently, and revealed her birthday celebrations – like so many people around the world – were much more low key thanks to the impact of the global health crisis.

Asked how she marked the occasion, she added: ‘I had a lot of FaceTime calls. I was working thankfully, so I always feel like that’s a good thing to be doing on your birthday, right?

‘Really grateful to be working, but I was actually doing a night shoot – it felt like the longest birthday ever… I worked through the night of my birthday, woke up – it was weird.’

She also said it was a great birthday because she spoke with a lot of friends on FaceTime and ‘felt very loved and celebrated at a distance, which was great.’
