Celeb News » Miranda Kerr's Cruisin' Good Time in Mexico City

Miranda Kerr

In what's been a travel-intense past month, Miranda Kerr has fully immersed herself in post-baby work duties in Mexico City over the past few days.

Earlier this weekend, the Victoria's Secret beauty - who welcomed her first child Flynn into the world in January - looked hot to trot as she shot an ad spot for Fashion Fest de Liverpool.

During the filming, Miss Kerr wore a classy buttondown jacket with skintight black pants as she hopped into a sporty red convertible alongside an accompanying male model.

The commercial efforts came just after Miranda returned to the runway - as she strutted her stuff on Thursday (September 1) during the Liverpool Fashion Fest Autumn/Winter 2011 show before hitting up the afterparty at Liverpool Polanco.

The south-of-the-border visit comes after the 28-year-old spent time in her native Australia and New Zealand, as she and husband Orlando Bloom went house hunting for a temporary pad to stay in while Bloom shoots his upcoming movie "The Hobbit".
