We first met rising beauty Kyra Santoro back in March in which she talked about her Sports Illustrated Model Search hopes, her love of wake boarding, and her favorite vacation spot (Tulum, in case you were wondering.) 

We’re happy to report that this California cutie who bears a passing resemblance to Emily Ratajkowski has been blowing up on Instagram ever since, racking up nearly 1 million followers and landing her first magazine cover on the premiere issue of something called Bella LA. 

With fire photos like these, it’s no wonder she’s turning heads:
