Lupita Nyong'o Is 'Baywatch' Chic In A Red One-Piece Swimsuit

More like bae-watch, amiright?

What do you do when your latest film tops $1 billion in ticket sales and is on the cusp of breaking records previously set by mega blockbuster "Avatar?"

If you're Lupita Nyong'o, you go on vacation, of course!

Nyong'o jetted off to the Dominican Republic for some much deserved, pre-awards season R&R and wasted no time sharing some dreamy photos from the trip on Instagram.

The bathing beauty looks like she came right out of an episode of "Baywatch" in one especially adorable snap. Clad in a revealing red one-piece, she frolics (not to mention gets some serious height) in the crystal clear waters.

Nyong'o paired the cute suit with some protective headgear, sunglasses and a smile -- because if you're spending the beginning of the year on vacation in the Dominican Republic, what isn't there to smile about?
