Models seem to have all the luck. They not only have fantastic genes and a jet-setting career, but they also manage to squeeze in some of the best vacations ever.
Whether it's Heidi Klum tweeting a sexy bikini photo with the caption "Finally........relaxation!!" or Bar Rafaeli posting a picture of her unfortunate surfing rash, these girls definitely aren't afraid to share the intimate details of their trip to the beach. And with all of the pressures that come with a job in fashion, we have to admit that, despite our epic jealousy, these vacations are well-deserved.
In honor of Labor Day and the end of the season, we've rounded up some of the best summer vacation photos from models' Instagrams. We suggest you hold back the jealousy and sit back, relax and pretend you're at the beach too.
