• Martha Stewart posted a selfie to Instagram and fans are already praising her for the "thirst trap."

Martha Stewart posted a new selfie to Instagram on Wednesday, and fans were quick to praise the 81-year-old for her latest "thirst trap."

In the first photo, Stewart shows off her new haircut, a perfectly tousled blonde bob. And in the second, hairdresser John Barrett tousles Stewart's hair for her, presumably post-haircut.

In the caption of her post, Stewart explained that her flight to Chicago, Illinois for a speaking engagement hosted by the hospital business magazine Becker's Healthcare was canceled due to bad weather. "This is the very first time in my career that I missed a contracted appearance and I felt really disappointed," she wrote.

"However," Stewart continued, " I used the newly found time to get a manicure pedicure by Luda and a haircut by the maestro himself @johnbarrettnyc The new do is refreshing and lovely! Thanks John!!!"

Stewart's followers had a field day in the comments, with many remarking on the cookbook author's youthful appearance (as well as her apparent typo referring to Chicago's O'Hare airport as "Chicago O'Hara").

"You're looking better at 81 than I do at 29," one user wrote, while another commented: "thirst trap and I am sure am thirsty — ICON."

A different commenter joked that Stewart "needs a bf bad," and numerous others joked about Stewart's well-documented history of "thirst trappin'" on social media.

And when one fan asked Stewart "what the f" she was doing to look "this amazing," the former "Martha Stewart Living" host didn't hesitate to share her secrets to looking good.

"Eating very well Pilates three x week. Horseback ride at least once a week. No smoking. Little drinking Green juice Daily," Stewart wrote in response to the fan.

This isn't the first time Stewart has caused a stir on social media for posting a "thirst trap." In October, the author posted a photo to Instagram wearing only an apron, which led to numerous users remarking on the sultry photo.

Stewart later revealed during an appearance on Drew Barrymore's talk show that she "practiced" her poses the day before to make sure she "looked good."
