It's in her DNA! Little Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock puts her stunning bikini body on display on romantic Barbadian break with boyfriend Jordan Kiffin
While most people are rushing around the shops for last-minute Christmas presents, pop star Leigh-Anne Pinnock has a different way of getting into the festive spirit.
The Little Mix singer has escaped the cold UK winter for the golden sands of Barbados, where she's enjoying sunshine break with footballer boyfriend Jordan Kiffin.
The stunning 22-year-old was keen to show off her impressive figure as she frolicked in the surf while wearing a tiny green-and-black bikini.

She then joined by her 25-year-old beau, who plays for Ashford Town, and the pair enjoyed a romantic stroll alongside the shoreline.
But there's only so much relaxing one person can do - and Leigh-Anne, who famously triumphed on the X Factor with her band in 2011, shot through the waves on a jet ski.
And it seems the star is enjoying her break - she took to Twitter to share a picture of her view on Instagram, writing: View from the room.. I'm home.. #Barbados #BajanGirl #IslandGirl.'
The couple aren't strangers to a sunshine break - they escaped to Greece over the summer and spent time sunning themselves on a yacht.

The holiday will come as some welcome downtime for the singer, who has enjoyed a hectic 2014 with the DNA hitmakers.
They have been focusing on their upcoming third album, which prompted them to cancel a planned tour of the US in July.
In a statement, the girls - Leigh-Anne, Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, and Jade Thirlwall - said: 'As a group we decided that creating an amazing 3rd album had to take priority.

'We're so sorry to all the Mixers who bought tickets to come and see the show. As soon as the album is finished, we promise to make plans to return to the US and perform for you all.'
Leigh-Anne has also spoken about how hard it is to spend quality time with Jordan, and her loved ones, because Little Mix are always on the road.
She told Reveal magazine: 'It’s all go, go, go but I take my laptop with me so I can Skype with my boyfriend. Whenever I get in somewhere, I want to see a homely face.
'It’s really hard. I find it hard to split my time when I get a day off.
'I want to see everyone but luckily they are all really understanding. I see my friends one week, then the next week my boyfriend and my family.'
