Jessica Simpson's weight-loss journey is not a new topic for the star—and she's now radiating confidence in her latest Instagram posts.

Simpson, who lost 100 pounds after the birth of her third child Birdie, now 2, snapped two mirror selfies as she modeled a pair of high-rise skinny jeans from her clothing line.

Wearing one camel-colored thigh-high boot and one plaid ankle bootie, the singer-turned-designer wrote on November 29 that she was "frazzled" and "giddy" from shopping Cyber Monday sales and turned to her 5.7 million followers for advice on which shoe to wear.

The following day, Simpson posted another photo, showing off a pair of plaid over-the-knee boots, which she styled with a cozy black sweater, chunky belt, and layered necklaces.

The two recent Instagram photos came just weeks after Simpson commemorated her four years of sobriety in a candid Instagram post about her struggle with alcoholism. She wrote in the caption, "The person in the early morning of Nov 1, 2017 is an unrecognizable version of myself. I had so much self-discovery to unlock and explore. I knew in this very moment that I would allow myself to take back my light, show victory over my internal battle of self-respect, and brave this world with piercing clarity."

Simpson previously revealed her addiction to alcohol and pills in her 2020 memoir, Open Book.

After acknowledging the work she has done to better her life, Simpson concluded the November 1 Instagram post by writing, "I didn't love myself. I didn't respect my own power. Today I do. I have made nice with the fears and I have accepted the parts of my life that are just sad. I own my personal power with soulful courage. I am wildly honest and comfortably open. I am free."
