Over the weekend, Miss Rhode Island 2012 took to Instagram to share a few stunning snaps of her walking along the beach at sunset. In one of the photos, she is facing the camera directly, her dark hair slicked back out of her face as she smolders for the shot.

She is standing with one tanned leg crossed over the other as she places her hands on the bottom of her dress, which barely falls to her upper thighs. The white doily dress is full of holes and cut-outs that show that she isn’t wearing a bra underneath the thin material. The white fabric wraps around her neck, leaving her shoulders exposed.

Olivia kept her look classy with a gold-banded watch and a bracelet along her right wrist as she turned away from the ocean waves that were lapping at the beach behind her.
