Padma Lakshmi stopped traffic as she strutted through Times Square on Wednesday.
The leggy beauty put her endless pins on display as she embraced the summer heat in tiny shorts.
Heading to a makeshift oasis in the heart of New York City, the Top Chef host put her star power to good use at the jcpenney + Joe Fresh Kids Orange Grove event.
Showstopper: Padma Lakshmi flaunted her endless pins in tiny navy shorts as she headed to the jcpenney + Joe Fresh Kids Orange Grove event in New York's Times Square on Wednesday
The two-day family fun festivities, which feature games, a photo booth that projects images onto a billboard in Times Square and delicious cool summer treats, saw the official launch of the Joe Fresh Kids clothing line.
In aid of the jc Cares August Adopt-a-Classroom initiative, 100 per cent of the proceeds go to the great cause.
Padma, who is mom to three-year-old daughter Krishna, looked easy, breezy in her navy shorts and plain white capped-sleeve T-shirt.
Supporting a good cause: The mom-of-one threw her star power behind the Joe Fresh Kids clothing launch, with 100 per cent of profits benefitting the jc Cares August Adopt-a-Classroom initiative
Trim and toned: The 42-year-old, who is mom to three-year-old Krishna, admits she works out and watches what she eats as her weight fluctuates '10 or 15 pounds every season' as she films Top Chef
The 5ft 9in stunner added inches to her statuesque frame with tan and nude strappy wedges, which complemented her brown shoulder bag.
The Indian-born American TV star wore her long dark locks in soft, relaxed curls for the event and kept her overall look simple and chic with subtle make-up.
A stack of silver bangles on the 42-year-old's left wrist were the only form of jewellery - surprising seeing as she's created two eponymous lines, the most recent of which being a costume jewellery range for HSN, which was launched earlier this year.
Famous friends: Fellow mom-of-one Molly Sims also turned out for the festivities, though she kept covered in dark jeans, a white singlet top, black blazer and a bright purple scarf
Fellow famous mom Molly Sims also joined Padma at the event, though she clearly wasn't feeling the summer vibe.
The actress rugged up in dark jeans, a white singlet top and black blazer, with a striking bright purple scarf wrapped loosely around her neck, a long gold necklace and black pointy kitten heels.
The blonde beauty, 40, gave birth to her first child, son Brooks, 14 months ago, so she has plenty of time before he's school age - though she certainly didn't let that stop her getting into the spirit and helping to raise money for the initiative.
Effortless: The stunning Top Chef host looked simply stylish in her navy shorts, white capped-sleeve T-shirt and neutral strappy wedges, which she teamed with soft, wavy hair and subtle pretty make-up
