She accessorized with a gold body chain placed around her neck that then cascaded down her torso. The Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist actress added a pop of color with two beaded turquoise anklets.

Her fans went wild over the posting, many of them posting multiple flame emojis to communicate their approval. Actress Yara Shahidi responded with a heart-eyes emoji. Singer and songwriter Tems called the post, 'Hotter than fire.' 'Euro Summer Lori is my fave,' admitted a fan. 'Technically, it's not until 6/20 but we're grateful for the heat stroke!!!❤️☄️' corrected another. Harvey is the daughter of actor and gameshow host Steve Harvey, 68 and his wife Marjorie, 60. In spite of being a petite 5'3", Harvey launched a successful career as a model in 2015, and worked for elite brands including Dolce & Gabbana, Michael Kors, Valentino, and more. In 2021, she used her popularity to launch her cosmetics brand Skin by LH. 'I have very sensitive skin, and I really struggled with [it] as a teenager,' she told Allure. 'Once I got into modeling, I was having really, really bad breakouts because of all the makeup being applied to my face,' she said, explaining that she sometimes would use more than 20 products a day. In 2023, she launched her Yevrah Swim line, which sells high end bikinis and one-piece bathing suits.
