Nina Dobrev is the queen of bikinis.
Dobrev, 36, showed off her washboard abs while dancing on a yacht during her fun-filled getaway to the Caribbean. In the reel featuring Diana Ross’ hit song “Upside Down,” which she shared via Instagram on Monday, January 5, Dobrev first rocked a spotted two-piece featuring a triangle top adorned with blue and brown beads on her halter straps and matching bottoms.
The newly single actress — who split from Shaun White in September 2025 — made her look even more luxe with a straw bucket hat and a white cover-up, which she threw in the air while busting a move.
Next, Dobrev changed into a zigzag set equipped with ultra-low-rise bottoms finished with white straps that hugged her hips. She also wore a top featuring red, tan, blue, purple and pink stripes. Dobrev proved that her bikini style is elite with a cover-up equipped with the same pattern.
She then swapped the chevron design for a pink floral look, equipped with a halter top and matching cheeky bottoms. The Vampire Diaries alum snatched her waist even more with a matching brown and pink floral sarong. She pushed her brunette hair back and completed her look with brown, oval sunglasses.
Dobrev also modeled a blue-and-white design. She made sure fans saw every angle of her look by turning around in the cheeky look.
Besides bikinis, Dobrev also flaunted the fierce dresses that she packed for her tropical getaway. In one shot, she rocked a sexy two-piece featuring a brown strapless bra top with a gold pendant in the middle of her chest. She styled the piece with a matching skirt complete with a thigh-high slit.
The Love Hard actress donned a drop-waist bright red dress complete with a scoop neck and pleated skirt in the clip. She also shared moments of her looking cozy in a fluffy white bathrobe.
“Somewhere between right side up and the Upside Down,” Dobrev captioned the post featuring Ross’ hit song, which recently went viral again during season 5 of Stranger Things. Her celebrity friends and fans praised her in the comments section.
“Nina you’re so hot it gives me a headache 🔥👏🙌,” Heather McMahan gushed. Celebrity hairstylist Nikki Lee added, “🔥🔥🔥.” A fan added, “Love all of these outfits. You look so happy! 😍.” Another follower added, “I’ve never seen anyone look so perfectly gorgeous in every outfit, you rock, diva! ❤️💅🏻.”

Earlier this month, Dobrev shared a photo of herself hot tubbing on the yacht in a purple floral triangle top. She tied her brunette hair into a messy bun and gave the camera a smile.
Dobrev also shared a photo of the other guests, including Miles Teller and his wife, Keleigh Teller, Glen Powell, Alix Earle and more.
“One last one for the road… 📍St Barts NYE 2025/2026 you did not disappoint,” Dobrev captioned the post. “Some old friends, some new friends… now all best friends. Haven’t laughed, been in awe or smiled this much in my life,” she added. “The perfect way to ring in the new year. Off to a GREAT start. Feeling beyond lucky, and grateful ♥️✨‼️.”
