A champion for women's empowerment, the Black-ish star exemplifies that the 50s are an era for feeling strong, beautiful and completely self-assured.
In her Instagram update, the actress and fashion icon shared a series of nostalgic photos showcasing her love for the water. Not only that, she also showcased her timeless style dating all the way back to 1978.
"In honor of this water baby's 53rd birthday, please enjoy this bathing suit retrospective spanning 1978-2025," she said, adding #scorpioseason.

The first photo features the 53-year-old flaunting her jaw-dropping physique in a little two-piece bikini, followed by a snap of young Tracee Ellis all smiles in her black one-piece swimsuit and long curly hair.
Each photo reflects her journey as a woman who embraces and loves her body in every swimsuit she wears.
In the comments, fans and fellow celebrities couldn't help but gush over her stunning post as they sent their birthday love.
"Happy birthday!!" Cardi B wrote.
The same goes for Julianne Moore, who remarked, "Happy birthday, beautiful."
As for Netflix's Bozoma Saint John, she left a powerful message saying, "Yeah ma'am!!! And the beautiful thing is that the confidence has remained the same! (Shoot, it might be even badder now!!)"
"And the body is espresso. Tea ain't strong enough lol," another commenter said.
Celebrity stylist Karla Welch noted, "Fine wine."
Tracee Ellis Ross Gets Real About Body Image
Though the Girlfriends star often speaks openly about body positivity and self-love, she's also candid about her own insecurities and struggles with confidence.
"My weight fluctuates. I have years where I wear a size 10 and years where I wear a size 4," she told Glamour Magazine in 2015, adding, "On Girlfriends, I kept complaining to the customer, saying, 'The cleaners are shrinking all my clothes.' Finally, she said, 'I know that's what you keep saying, but I want to be clear with you: Your body has changed and we need to buy you bigger clothes.' It took me out for a minute. In the context of our world, sizes 8 and 10 are teeny but not for Hollywood. I had to ask myself, Do I want to be somebody who worries about what I'm eating? Or do I want to find a balance where I can be healthy and not consumed by that and maybe have to buy some larger pants? I bought new pants."
Ross' advocacy also prompted her to launch her hair products line called Pattern Beauty, designed for naturally curly, coily and tight-textured hair.
