sunsoaked

DUA Lipa looked stunning as she showcased her toned abs in a sun-soaked new snap this weekend.

The chart-topping singer took to her Instagram page with a new update as she posed in a sequin-covered bikini.

Lounging in the sun, Dua showed off her tanned and toned physique in the turquoise number.

She has been enjoying the warmer temperatures across the pond in California over recent weeks.

“A few weeks on the west coast,” captioned Dua as she teamed the bikini pic with numerous other snaps for her 88.6million followers.

Other pictures in the carousel showed Dua at Elton John’s Oscars viewing party, which had an exclusive celeb guest list and also saw the likes of Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz in attendance.

The bash is an annual event hosted by Elton for his AIDS foundation, and welcomed the A-listers who weren’t at the Academy Awards themselves.

It acts as a fundraiser to support global HIV prevention.

Donning a plunging shimmer dress for the evening, Dua posed alongside close friend Elton and her fiancé Callum Turner.

Another picture showed her watching the Indian Wells Open tennis tournament, as others showed Dua spending time with pals.

It comes after a busy few weeks for the pop star, who made a surprise appearance at The BRITs last month.

She appeared alongside Mark Ronson as he performs a medley of his hits on stage at Manchester’s Co-op Arena.

Dua and Mark won a Grammy for their 2017 hit Electricity and worked together again on Dance The Night from the 2023 film Barbie.

They joined the likes of Olivia Dean, Harry Styles and Robbie Williams; who all performed throughout the evening.

Singer Dua, who originally hails from London, is known for sharing glamorous pictures to her social media as she travels the world with other half Callum.

Alongside her music career, she also maintains lucrative multi-million dollar deals as a global ambassador for YSL Beauty, along with partnerships with Porsche, Versace, and Puma.

This city has everything you need for a great week away, from a long sandy beach to plenty of shops and restaurants, plus family-friendly attractions for days out with the kids in May half term

The cheapest destination for a week in the sun has been revealed as budget-conscious Brits look for ways to get away in spring or summer for less.

The figures are based on pricing data for package holidays departing between June 1 and August 31 and were compiled by loveholidays, which offers affordable flight and hotel combinations.

A week at this coastal gem will set you back £230 per person on average, working out at a budget-friendly £33 a night, leading loveholidays to crown it the most affordable destination for a week away.

Moroccan coastal town Agadir took the top spot thanks to its cheap flight and hotel combinations, and generally inexpensive food, drink, and days out. The main draw of Agadir is its long coastline with golden sands and its clear blue waters have earned it Blue Flag status.

Its beach stretches over five miles, and the sea can be choppy with strong currents, which has made it a popular surfing spot. If you want to swim, then there are some natural pools where you can take a dip when the tide comes in.

Along the beach is a lively promenade, lined with palm trees, and along here you’ll find a huge selection of places to eat, bars, souvenir shops, and places to hire surfboards and water equipment. Many hotels can also be found along this strip, allowing guests easy beach access during their stays.

You can also wander into the modern city centre for lots more restaurant options and a huge range of malls and shopping areas. Many visitors recommend the Marina Shopping Mall on the waterfront, which has international brands and lots of al fresco dining options.

It’s also worth visiting the Souk El Had market for bargains and an excellent way to test your haggling skills. Other than fixed price stores, everything in Morocco can be haggled, and with over 6,000 stalls and shops, you are bound to find something you like among the colourful rugs and textiles that hang from the walls.

Agadir’s centre was destroyed in an earthquake in the 1960s, so many of its historical sites are gone. However, La Médina d’Agadir gives you an idea of what the old city looked like, and it’s a faithful recreation of the traditional market. You’ll see stallholders weaving fabrics and painting ceramics outside their stalls, so you can see how these beautiful items are made. If you’d like to see more of Old Morocco, take a tour of Souss-Massa National Park which includes a visit to a traditional Berber village where people still live in beautiful clay houses.

Agadir is also a great option for May half-term, and with highs of 26C and dry weather, you can enjoy lots of beach and pool days. Take them for a day at Crocopark, a zoo that specialises in all things scaly, from crocodiles to snakes, and you can see these creatures basking in natural desert landscapes.

Agadir Dolphin World is another place families will love. It has regular dolphin shows, and visitors can get up close to these friendly mammals.

If you prefer to book your flight and hotel separately, there are a few airlines to choose from. Ryanair offers flights from Birmingham, London-Stansted, and Leeds Bradford, where fares start from as little as £17 one way. Jet2 and easyJet also fly from several regional airports, and most flights take just under 4 hours.
