Kate Bock is proving that it’s always a good time to wear a swimsuit, even when there is winter weather.
The Sports Illustrated: Swimsuit Edition model shared a new set of photos to her Instagram page today that saw her defying the cold temperatures with a look that was an instant hit with her 593,000 followers. In the shots, the Canadian bombshell stands outside by the pool at the St. Regis hotel in Aspen, Colorado.
