Summer isn’t over just yet, which means there’s still plenty of time to bask in the warm weather and celebs are making the most of it. Gabrielle Union recently shared snaps from a boat day (looking effortlessly chic in a two-toned swimsuit and monochromatic cover-up), and now Serena Williams is riding that same sunny wave.

The tennis legend took to Instagram to post a carousel of photos soaking up the sunshine and getting more than just her feet wet. In the first shot, Serena stands confidently in knee-deep water, hands on hips, a silky scarf tied around her neck and a pair of round black sunglasses shielding her eyes. But the boldest statement? That bright yellow one-piece swimsuit.

“Melanin mellow-yellow,” she captioned the post, with a yellow caution sign emoji.

The rest of the carousel includes more glam shots of her posing in the water and a glowing selfie, complete with a pink pout and her hand raised in the air. As for that swimsuit—it’s not just eye-catching, it’s on trend. Sure, butter yellow has technically been summer’s it shade, but really, every hue of yellow has been having a major fashion moment.

Serena’s clearly been living her best water-side life this summer and keeping her 18.2 million followers in the loop.

Back over Fourth of July weekend, she posted a playful video of herself getting ready for a photo in a cropped halter and mini skirt, until her 7-year-old daughter, Olympia, hilariously pulled the skirt up to cover her midriff.

“Olympia Ohanian always keeping me in check!” she joked in the caption.

Between her bold suits and sweet mom moments, Serena’s summer content is nothing short of the moment.
