sharing glamorous pictures of herself. Two years ago, in July 2020, she shared a steamy picture of herself by the poolside wearing a black bathing suit and dewy makeup.
After the picture went viral, the lifestyle expert revealed she took the picture, not knowing it would be labeled a "thirst trap."
However, after posting the picture, seeing the reactions, and discovering what a "thirst trap" was, Stewart noted she was looking forward to taking similar pictures because she loves doing provocative things.
Nevertheless, multiple fans rushed to the birthday post to congratulate the celebrity chef on her 81st birthday.

Stewart celebrated her 81st birthday at her estate in Seal Harbor, Maine. The closest friends of the celebrity chef showed up to celebrate with her. Speaking about the event, Stewart disclosed that she hosted a dinner for 20 of her friends at the estate just outside Acadia National Park.
The lifestyle expert had local lobsters with caviar-filled roasted potatoes accompanied by her chardonnay and her friend, Molly Chappellet's cabernet sauvignon.
The Tv personality's birthday cake was a four-layered coconut treat served with fresh peach ice cream. Her friend, Kevin Sharkey, also made huge floral arrangements for her house. These included hydrangeas, snap dragons, delilahs, and lilies.
Because of the park surrounding her house, Stewart believed it was essential to maintain its features. The television personality confessed she and her friends spent the dinner talking about the importance of America's national parks and protecting them for generations to come.
Stewart also declared that America had the most beautiful national parks in the world, and she and her friends took full advantage of it, especially after the two years of being unable to travel due to COVID-19 and the subsequent lockdown.

According to her, the restrictions reinforced the need for national parks to be supported and taken care of. However, one thing that caught people's attention after Stewart's birthday dinner is another picture she posted on her Instagram months later.
In the photo, the chef stood beside her friend Susan Magrino; however, her pants sparked a flurry of comments. Stewart donned nude pants and a top.
While some people praised her clothing style and choice, others questioned what she wore, noting that it looked like the lifestyle expert didn't have anything on at the bottom.
However, considering the TV personality's knack for the dramatic, her outfit choice should not have been such a surprise.

Early in February 2022, Martha Stewart stepped out in what appeared to be a simple pair of brown leather leggings. However, a closer and more detailed look showed that her shoes were not separately worn but seemingly connected to her pants.
One might conclude she was wearing joots, which are pants and boots combined into one, but the picture did not make identifying her outfit any easier.

For Halloween in 2013,, Stewart transformed into a fairy grandma. The lifestyle expert donned a leotard, yards of pink tulle, and sparkling accessories.
She also had fantastic makeup on and had her hair done. Combining all the different features of her look, Stewart transformed herself into what she called a "fairy GrandMartha."
Like many celebrities, Stewart takes Halloween very seriously, and her costume choices first gained prominence in 1998 when she dressed up as a boogie boarder.

In 2005, the former model wore a "Martha's Jane of the Jungle" costume. The TV star took inspiration from Edgar Rice Burrough's "Tarzan" series.
A year later, Stewart dressed up as a black cat. In 2007, she starred in a special Halloween issue of Martha Stewart magazine, donning two iconic looks.
On the front page, Stewart dressed up as a vampire, which she called a "glampire" look. On the back of the same magazine, she appeared as a gold-clad goddess.

The following year, Stewart went for something scarier for the Halloween issue. The former model dressed up as a "ghostly equestrienne" with her "dark but dear steed, Rutger." She completed the look with a hat with black netting.
In 2009, the chef wore a Queen of the Wild Things costume, which she also wore on season five of "The Martha Stewart Show."

In 2011, Stewart transformed into what she called Motha, the winged wonder. Describing her look, Stewart wrote:
“I’m ‘Motha’ dressed in a homemade cape with a faux-fur collar. My makeup includes feathered lashes with clip-art wings around the eyes and a platinum-blonde wig.”
Stewart revealed she turned to the "Insecta order Lepidoptera" for the costume inspiration. After transforming into a fairy grandmother in 2013, the former model donned mystical blue contact lenses for her Halloween 2018 look.
She appeared to be going for a blonde Cleopatra or a Bo Derek look. However, Stewart did not get specific about her inspiration, so we can only make guesses.

Nevertheless, one thing that has remained consistent and certain throughout her career is that Stewart is not afraid of trying out outrageous looks.
