“Another year older🩵🎊,” the model wrote in her caption.

“Happy Birthday Beautiful!!!🥳💖,” fellow model Danielle Herrington cheered.

“I hope you had a wonderful time! Happy birthday, Hailey!” someone else wrote.

In her Instagram story late on Sunday, March 8, Clauson tagged herself and her husband, photographer Jullien Herrera, at Geronimo, a high-end fusion restaurant located in a historic home in Santa Fe. Over on his own Instagram page, Herrera wished his wife a happy birthday with a sweet message that accompanied pics and video of the pair over the years.
