Martha Stewart continues to prove that confidence has no age limit. The 83-year-old entrepreneur delighted fans once again by sharing a striking new selfie on Instagram, embracing her now-signature glamorous “thirst trap” style.
Posted on Tuesday, April 8, the photo shows Stewart pursing her lips slightly as she poses in a silky brown top. Her blonde hair is styled in soft, side-parted waves, while her makeup features smoky eyes and a polished, glowing finish that instantly caught attention.
In the caption, Stewart credited her glam team for the moment. “Time for a new ‘portrait,’” she wrote, explaining that makeup artist Daisy Beauty Toye had just completed her look when Stewart admired herself in a mirror with perfect lighting. Impressed by the result, she encouraged Toye to snap the photo on the spot. She also gave a shoutout to her hair colorist and stylist for completing the look.
The comment section quickly filled with praise from fellow celebrities. Paris Hilton called her an “icon,” while Chelsea Handler jokingly asked if she was looking at her future self. Actress Christy Carlson Romano applauded Stewart’s confidence and generosity, calling her an inspiration.
In recent years, Stewart has become famous for her playful, flirty selfies. She first went viral in 2020 after posting a photo from her East Hampton pool, later admitting she hadn’t even known what a “thirst trap” was at the time. Once she caught on, she embraced the concept fully, describing it as fun and empowering.
Her bold image has since landed her major beauty campaigns, including a recent collaboration with MAC Cosmetics. Stewart has said she loves how these shoots highlight confidence and self-assurance—qualities she believes everyone should embrace.
She’s even shared her secrets to taking the perfect selfie, famously advising fans to always “project fabulous.”
