Sports Illustrated model Jessica White caught plenty of attention while posing for a swimsuit shoot yesterday.

The former girlfriend of actor Sean Penn frolicked on Miami Beach in a white bikini and fishermen's netting as she played up for the camera.

The 27-year-old flaunted her sensational figure in the two-piece as she emerged from the sea.

With minimal make-up on her complexion, the native New Yorker sported a stunning glow.

She also showed off her array of tattoos she has scattered over her arms.

Later she lost the swimsuit and slipped into a charcoal maxi dress paired with gold choker and oversized sunglassses.

Jessica is also an occasional actress and DJ, but modelling is her primary profession.

As well as appearing in the coveted Swimsuit Issue of Sports Illustrated in 2003, she has been featured in the magazine for every consecutive year since.

The beauty has also walked the catwalk for big name designers, including Ralph Lauren, Oscar de la Renta, Marc Jacobs and Tommy Hilfiger and appeared in campaigns for big beauty brands such as CoverGirl and Maybelline.

She cut her acting teeth with small roles in Big Momma's House 2, and long-running soap, The Young and the Restless.

The model is also known for dating Hollywood star Penn.

She was seeing Penn on and off for around a year following his split from his actress wife Robin Wright.

Wright, 44, filed for divorce in August last year, the third time the couple petitioned to either separate or divorce.

The filings show Penn, 50, and Wright were to share custody of their children Hopper, 17, and 20-year-old Dylan.

Jessica and Penn split last summer and shortly after the model got in trouble with the law.

She was arrested at 4.50am in the city's Chelsea neighbourhood after allegedly hitting 28-year-old Vanessa Klan.

She was held for 12 hours before being released by a judge.

She was reportedly out 'celebrating' her split from Penn.

'According to the court complaint, White 'pulled the victim's hair and struck [the victim] numerous times in the face with her hand, causing abrasions, swelling and substantial pain.'

Jessica's lawyer, Jeffrey Mennen said in her defense: 'The police report doesn't sound like Jessica, and she must have been provoked.'

This June, she was ordered to pay $490 in costs, three days community service and two days of anger management classes over the incident.

All charges will be dropped providing she isn’t arrested again in the next six months.

Last month Jessica revealed that she had been celibate for nearly a year.

Speaking to People magazine she said: ‘I know the world is going to be like, yeah, right, but I've been celibate now for almost a year. So, the next person that I'm with will be the person, hopefully, that I marry.’
