The Magic Mike star has been a style icon for decades
It looks like Salma Hayek has known how to remain in style and on trend for decades, as evidenced by her latest throwback photo shared on Instagram.
The actress, 57, took to her social media page with a snapshot of herself with her cousin, writing alongside it: "My cousin Arturo and I in the 80s."
While her handsome brother wore a brown button down with jeans, Salma rocked a tan fur jacket with exaggerated sleeves, a white undershirt, jeans, and short hair that had been styled into a swoop.
Several of her fans commented on how good-looking her family tree was, while many others gushed over her ageless radiance and era-appropriate attire, particularly fawning over her hair and look.
In the '80s, Salma had just kicked off her acting career, with her breakthrough coming in the Mexican telenovela , which ran from 1989-1991 and made her a star in her native Mexico.

However, with aspirations of making it in Hollywood, she moved to Los Angeles in 1991 and struggled to be taken seriously for the first few years. She landed a leading role in the 1994 Mexican film , which is to this day ranked as one of the most acclaimed movies in the history of Mexican cinema.
She finally achieved her Hollywood breakthrough thanks to the one-two punch of (1995) opposite Antonio Banderas, and then (1996).
In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Salma spoke about moving to the United States with a very limited knowledge of English, which she remedied by taking English lessons and acting classes under the tutelage of Stella Adler.

"You know what? I knew more when I was 12, because I came to school here [in Texas] for two years," she explained. "Then I went away for ten years and didn't really practice.
"My English was limited to vacationing and not really engaging with Americans. I knew 'shopping' and 'eating' English – I could say 'blue sweater', 'crème brulée', and 'Caesar salad' – so I came here thinking I spoke English."
She also recalled the struggle of trying to fight for her place in the industry as a famous actress coming from Mexico, citing moments of "desperation" and "anger."
"I certainly had my moments of desperation, of anger, of self-pity, of self-deprecation," Salma remarked. "Yet after a lot of struggling, I am finally working. I am beginning to make money. I am famous. And I say, 'This is not what I wanted, either. It doesn't feel good, either.'

"And I go, 'Why?' Well, I am famous, doing movies that my agents want. People around me are saying, 'This is what you need to do now so that you can get to do what you want later.'
"And I say, 'Well, this is not my dream, either. How scary!' After all this work. So what's my dream? I thought about this, and I wanted to do a different kind of movie. I wanted to have a voice, and it was okay if I wasn't going to be so famous or so rich."
