With her plunging watermelon-pink maxi dress, long brown hair and simple jewellery, Adriana Lima cut a stunning figure as she posed for a photoshoot in St Barts on Wednesday.

The 31-year-old model carried off the simple look, expertly posing for the Victoria's Secret shoot.

Adriana's bright pink frock was slashed to the waist, showing off her perfect curves.

And the Brazilian-born star seemed keen to protect her olive skin from the bright Caribbean sunshine, arriving on set carrying a grey umbrella.

The mother-of-two gave birth to her second child Sienna last September and was famously back on the catwalk just eight weeks later for the Victoria's Secret runway show.

Earlier this year, she confessed she keeps in shape by boxing and has been a fan of the sport for eight years.

'I always was a fan of boxing — not only on the athletic and exercise level, but of the sport,' she told website Saludify.com.

'I have been boxing with my coach here at Aerospace for eight years. Boxing is like therapy; it really takes away all your thoughts. It's so intense and you have to focus a lot on what you're doing — body and mind. And the results, of course, are great.'

However, she confessed there are some workouts she doesn't enjoy.

'I don't like anything that is slow, but sometimes you have to do things you don't like to do for yourself,' she admitted. 'I tried to do Pilates for a few months and I'm really bad at stretching - I mean really bad.'

Take it to the max: Alessandra Ambrosio sports a pair of colourful trousers as she headed to the Brentwood Country Mart in Los Angeles

Meanwhile,Lima's fellow Victoria's Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio was looking equally stylish in a casual ensemble in Los Angeles.

The 32-year-old brunette beauty - also from Brazil - sported a black T-shirt and colourful loose fitting trousers with a sunshine and striped design as she ran errands in the city.

Alessandra chatted on her cell phone and paid a visit to the Brentwood Country Mart to get coffee.

Adriana is one of the most naturally beautiful women in the world. Google her if you think otherwise you'll see her work. Anyone who thinks otherwise show us who you think is beautiful. Like the girl that always comments how beautiful Gaga and Britney is but thinks Beyoncé is unattractive, yes you are delusional.

She is stunning and she carries the energy of a happy confident woman rather than arrogance.
