She was noticeably absent at Monday night's Met Ball, but Miranda Kerr was missing in action for a very good reason.

The Australian model was spending some quality time with husband Orlando Bloom and son Flynn in Bora Bora.

Instead of wearing a designer frock, the brunette beauty donned a skimpy white bikini for her time in the tropics.

The Victoria's Secret Angel took 16-month-old son Flynn for a walk in the beach.

No doubt she stopped men in their tracks in her tiny white suit, hipster sunglasses and straw fedora.

The 28-year-old and her baby boy soon reunited with father Orlando Bloom, 35, for a swim at the Four Seasons pool.

Bloom, 35, showed off his muscular chest while taking a dip at the Bora Bora after helping his doppelganger son with his floatation device.

The gorgeous family took a brief holiday in Tahiti before continuing on to New Zealand.

This is where the actor filmed his Lord of the Rings trilogy, as well as the upcoming film The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.

He is reprising his role from three prior films as elf Legolas.

Their trip meant that both had to miss the annual Costume Institute Ball at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Despite having a wonderful holiday with her family, Kerr was disappointed to have missed the fashion industry fete.

She wrote on her Twitter page on Monday: 'So sad I can't be with you all tonight at the MET Ball! Sending love from New Zealand.'
