Simone Biles is the expert on stick landings. But her impressive resume does not end here. Even when she’s stepping back, she’s still making noise—gracefully, powerfully, like she always has. Just days after delivering a moving, empowering speech while receiving an honorary doctorate from Washington University, the 11-time Olympic medalist reminded everyone why she’s still the one. On May 13, she popped up on Instagram with a beachside selfie. But what caught the fans’ eye wasn’t just the serene sand or her beaming smile—it was what hung around her neck: a glinting necklace. Subtle? While that might have been a mic drop, don’t blink—because GOAT has another thing to update, and let’s say it is her confession!

Simone Biles is writing her kind of fairy tale, and it doesn’t come with a pause button! And let’s just say May has been that kind to her! It all started at the 151st Kentucky Derby, where she turned Churchill Downs into her runway. Simone and her husband, Jonathan Owens, showed up in coordinated lavender fits, catching both the crowd’s and the internet’s eye. Simone even got to make the “Riders Up!” call. Then came Met Gala Monday, and let’s just say… Biles brought it. As part of the host committee, she stunned in an electric-blue custom dress with a dramatic cape, paired with Zales diamonds. Owens complemented her look in a sharp white suit with blue accents, turning the red carpet into their anniversary pre-party.

Just a week later, you’d think she’d take a breath. But nope. Two hours after getting home, she was already back at the airport. Her Instagram Story said it all: a perfectly manicured hand holding a glass of white wine, a TV playing sports in the background, and those now-iconic words: “Wine @ the airport.”

“I got home at noon just to unpack & repack to head back to the airport in 2 hrs.” That’s not just a flex—it’s a lifestyle.

Just two days earlier, Biles delivered a powerful speech at Washington University, advocating for foster youth and mental health, earning an honorary doctorate for her impact beyond gymnastics. Well, that was about her degree, but it is not the only thing that is catching people’s eyes; there is one thing too.

Simone Biles’ style is never a miss

Simone Biles may have stepped off the mat, but she hasn’t stepped away from making statements—now, she’s just doing it with handbags. And recently, one particular bag had her full attention.

She was on the hunt for the ultra-rare Chanel 25 Small Handbag. Think soft denim, glimmering gold hardware, and enough quiet luxury to whisper “icon” without saying a word. She posted a snapshot of it on her Instagram Stories like a wanted poster on May 13, captioned with an urgent plea: “I need itttt… anyone know/have a Chanel rep?” Just hours earlier on Threads, she wrote, “the chanel 25 is sooooo cute ughhh.” Honest, impulsive, and 100% relatable

According to Chanel, the bag is part of its Spring-Summer 2025 collection—a celebration of movement and freedom. Fitting, right? For someone who’s made a career out of defying gravity, a statement piece inspired by movement feels just about right. But this Chanel crush is just the tip of her style story.

On April 4, Simone served two back-to-back handbag looks that belong in their own hall of fame. She headed to a basketball game with Jonathan Owens, wearing a white Balenciaga jacket and black leather boots—but it was the black Hermès Kelly in her hand that quietly stole the show. A few days later, on April 9, she teased her followers again—this time with a creamy white Lady Dior bag, effortlessly styled and sitting pretty in her closet.

Finally, one thing is for sure here; whether it’s in the gym or on the go, Simone Biles knows how to show up—and she always does it in style.
