While the updo is fit for a formal event, it appears that Biles was headed on a shopping trip; the following slide on her account showed a wall of cream and tan colored Hermès Birkin bags.

She also included a photo of an orange gift box — Hermès' signature color — on a table with a series of emojis that indicate the star treated herself to a designer purchase.
