Life's a beach! Bella Thorne splashes in the surf as she showcases her knockout body in bra and hotpants on photo shoot

She spends countless hours in the gym honing her body.

And Bella Throne took great delight showcasing the results as she took part in a racy photo shoot in a bra and hotpants in Malibu on Thursday. 

The Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip star seemed to have a great time flaunting her knockout body as she made the most of her time on the beach in the California celebrity enclave.

And no wonder, for the 18-year-old looked phenomenal in a tiny white T-shirt, blue bra, and painted-on look denim hotpants.

The saucy redhead had a ball twirling, spinning and splashing in the surf as an excited photographer captured her every move. 

She also made sure to show off her enviable form, mostly her lovely legs in the super-tiny shorts.

As she larked around in the shallow water, she revealed her flawless silky thighs as she continued to pose up a storm.

Do double denim with a difference in a bikini by Guess

It's double denim, but not as you know it. A chambray shirt and skinny jeans just won't cut it anymore!

Bella Thorne isn't one to do things by halves, so it was hardly a surprise to see she shunned the classic itsy bitsy black bikini in favor of this blue denim two-piece. It comes complete with faux belt loops, a button fastening and zip front - the whole shebang!

It's by Guess and we love the retro high waist cut of the bottoms, as well as the bust boosting under wired bikini top. This exact style is now sold out, but if you fancy trying something a little different for your holiday this year, keep them Guessing (geddit?!) by clicking the link (right) to buy a similar version. Talk about good genes!

Alternatively, take a look a look at our edit below. Denim is clearly a big trend this time around, and this Seafolly option is top of our list!

And, although the denim pants seemed to be riding up, the young beauty didn't seem at all bothered, a huge smile plastered across her pretty face. 

Showing off her natural good loocks, she sported a glamorous amount of make-up, her eyelashes extended with lashings of mascara and her lips painted a nude pink shade.

Her russet locks went from loosely flowing around her shoulders to being slung up in a casual updo, showing off her timeless oversized hoop earrings. 

The cash from her appearance in the shoot will surely come in handy, as it recently emerged Bella is adding to her burgeoning property portfolio.

A source revealed to the Dailymail.com she and her beau Gregg Sulkin are now proud homeowners.

The child star was overheard sharing her good news at the Kari Feinstien Style Lounge in Hollywood on Thursday.

As the star arrived at the pre-Oscars gifting lounge, she made a beeline for anything to make hers and her 23-year-old boyfriend's house a home.
