Following her historic run at the 2024 Paris Olympics, the 27-year-old gymnast has been basking in all the hard-earned glory. On Friday, Aug. 9, the athlete showed off an elegant post-Olympics hairstyle on her Instagram Stories. In the photo, Biles faces away from the camera, giving followers a view of an intricate looped bun.

While the updo is fit for a formal event, it appears that Biles was headed on a shopping trip; the following slide on her account showed a wall of cream and tan colored Hermès Birkin bags.

She also included a photo of an orange gift box — Hermès’ signature color — on a table with a series of emojis that indicate the star treated herself to a designer purchase.
