Making a stylish arrival in the Big Apple, Kate Upton turned up at JFK airport on Monday (November 19).

Casually clad in dark skinny’s, a sheer black blouse and a cream colored sweater, the 20-year-old "Sports Illustrated" model was greeted by fans and photographers as she made her way out of the airport.

The blonde beauty has received accolades for landing the covers of the November 2012 issues of "Cosmopolitan" and the high fashion "Italian Vogue."

Ms. Upton recently shared her ideas on what makes a person sexy. "To me, what's sexy is when you look like you're having a good time. That, and when you look effortless and have messy hair,” she told "Cosmopolitan."
