She's got good jeans! Sharon Stone, 55, looks youthful in denim as she bounces onto Roberto Cavalli's yacht in Cannes

We're used to seeing her working her sexy and vamped up to the max.

But after vamp turned into vampire at the Washington Correspondents' Dinner, it was high time that Sharon Stone, 55, had a bit of fun with a sports casual look.

And she did just that in Cannes as she embarked on an adventure aboard designer Roberto Cavalli's yacht on Tuesday.

Looking yacht! Sharon Stone was the image of youth she arrived on the Roberto Cavalli boat in Cannes on Tuesday

The gorgeous blonde looked years younger thanks to her casual appearance.

The key, of course, was choosing a pair of jeans that flattered her and were neither too aging or too trendy for the Basic Instinct star to pull off.

After achieving this, the big screen icon played it safe - if a little cliche yacht goer - in a black T-shirt with a striped scarf.

She prepared for the deck by slipping into studded pumps, added some designer shades and finished the look off with a luxurious looking leather tote.

Plain sailing: Sharon had obviously looked up yacht fan in her style book but it paid off

Natural: Sharon looked far lovelier than when she's overdoing the film noir vamp

Sharon has been dating Brazilian model Martin Mica, 28 years her junior, since they met last April at a Vogue party.

Though they were rumoured to have split in January, the pair have since cleared the air with numerous public appearances together.

Relationships aside, Sharon has a busy year ahead of her.

Oooh la la: Could Sharon be anywhere other than the French riviera?

Sharing the love: Stone was happy to blow kisses to her fans as she boarded the boat

As well as playing mum to her three adopted sons Roan Joseph, 12, Laird Vonne, seven, and Quinn Kelly, six, the Oscar nominee has several movie roles lined up.

She will be on screens as a dermatologist who hires a male escort in this year's Fading Gigolo, starring and directed by John Turturro.

Her other film projects include the drama Lovelace starring Amanda Seyfried, the Skype film Mother's Day with Susan Sarandon, and the drama comedy Gods Behaving Badly with Christopher Walken.

Misfire: Sharon's looked for the White House Correspondents' dinner in April was far too severe... and we hope she sacked whoever advised the orange eyeshadow

Anyone with white skin ages, wrinkles and sags significantly worse than people with dark skin. That is why I serioulsy wished I was darker skin. Just the other day I was looking at photos of elderly people in their 70's. 2 of the women were dark skinned and the rest were white. I honestly thought the dark skinned women were the daughters of someone not pictured, but nope, they turned out to be among the oldest of the bunch but yet looked the youngest! Dark skin is incredible because the darker the skin is, the more pigment it has and the bettter it protects agaist the sun an aging. So this lady in this article had no fighting chance against agin. The only way she would have had any chance is if she had spent her whole life in a dark room. White people (I'm mixed), have horrible genes! Example A: This lady looks like she's 88 instead of 55.

Something is going on with her forehead/hairline that makes her look not youthful and that last close up picture shows that skinny as you age means bad wrinkles. A little more weight on her bones will actually make her look younger.

Youthful? Maybe to an 80 year old man. She looks like a 55 year old woman who has a receding hairline.

The jeans look horrible on her because they are too high waist-ed and the belt is too thick and the leg is too wide!

She looks good. When I got that thin my hair fell out. The weight came back but not the follicles! Life is so unfair.
