She kept a sporty look as she added white sneakers to the ensemble. 

While getting out of her car, Alessandra covered her eyes in dark circular sunglasses as she hair tousled around her face. 

The former Victoria’s Secret Angel topped off her look with a white box-style crossbody bag on a silver chain and a thin gold chain necklace. 

It seems to be her first return to a photoshoot set since the pandemic began, as she had been isolating at with her children Anja, 12, and Noah, eight, at her Santa Monica home. 

Though she did leave California last month to celebrate her daughters birthday in the Maldives with her boyfriend Nicolo Oddi, and her parents Luz and Lucilda. 

On Wednesday, Alessandra revealed that in spite of her hectic schedule, she always makes time each day to ‘take care of [herself]’.

 ‘I’ve always tried to keep my beauty routine as simple as possible and that didn’t change when I had my kids,’ she said. ‘What I’ve focused on since having kids is creating time to take care of myself.’ 

Adding: ‘Even if it’s just 15 minutes in the morning for meditation, stretching or yoga – it helps me get centered and ready to conquer whatever the day is bringing my way.’

She is determined to ensure her kids learn the value of taking care of themselves, too.

The model told Vogue India magazine: ‘I make sure that I teach my kids the importance of taking care of themselves, so every morning we make delicious juices together and try to do some kind of outdoor activity.’
