Bikini-clad Abbey Clancy flaunts her toned, slender body as she hits Dubai beach with daughter Sophia

Sun, sea and sandcastles: Bikini-clad Abbey Clancy flaunts her toned, slender body as she hits Dubai beach with daughter Sophia

The golden tan was evident during a late night out in London on Thursday evening, and little wonder - she'd touched down in the UK earlier that day following a sunshine break in Dubai. 
Indeed, WAG Abbey Clancy has been enjoying another holiday in the United Arab Emirates with daughter Sophia - her only child with footballer husband Peter Crouch. 
The 28-year-old made the most of her recent jaunt, during which she stayed at luxurious retreat Le Royal Meridien, by hitting the beach for a heady mix of sunning, swimming and sandcastle building.

Clutching a plastic pail, Abbey caught the eye in a striking white bikini that helped show off the slender body she honed while two-stepping her way to success on BBC show Strictly Come Dancing.
    At one point the Liverpudlian waded into the cool water for a quick dip before padding back onto the beach, where her daughter's red towel was stretched across the sand.  
    The pair later strolled side by side as Abbey took in the sweeping views across the coastline on last time before preparing for their flight back to the UK.

    'I feel most confident when I’ve carried out my beauty basics such as waxing and foot care. It’s not just about how great your feet and legs look, but how you feel when they are prepped and ready to bare as soon as the sun comes out.
    'Any mum with a full-time job knows that fitting in time to do even the simple things like going to the gym and shops can be a struggle, never mind having the time to visit a salon,' she continued. 'That’s why products that are quick and easy to use at home are a God-send.
    'With such a busy lifestyle and a little girl to run around after I barely have time to visit a salon for beauty treatments, so easy-to-use products such as Scholl Express Pedi and Veet EasyWax help me get long-lasting professional results from home.

    'It’s no wonder women keep their legs and feet covered up when they feel unprepared to bare their skin, I know I tend to hide in a pair of skinny jeans and ballet pumps when I’ve neglected my legs and feet. There’s no need to hide away your legs and feet - it’s time to show them off!'
    A spokesperson for the brands said: 'We are delighted Abbey is our brand ambassador. As a model, TV presenter and one of the UK’s most photographed women, Abbey always looks impeccable. 
    'Abby is also down to earth and knows home grooming can produce salon-quality results with no fuss. She is aspirational yet women can relate to her. We hope that together we can encourage more women to feel confident and dare to bare this summer!'

    Speaking about her love of summer, Abbey, who has become something of a fashion icon, said: 'I love the beach and spend a lot of time abroad when I get the chance to take time off from work. I love the summer not just for the long days and warm weather but also the fashion. Summer dresses and little shorts are my summer wardrobe-musts .'
    Since leaving Strictly, Abbey has been maintaining a rigorous work-out regime and was spotted last week throwing herself into an energetic martial arts session in Liverpool with her sister Elle earlier this month.
    Emerging from the studio looking her usual flawless self, the 28-year-old cut a trim image and showcased her legs as she garnered tips from the muscle-bound instructor.
    Abbey has previously admitted to being worried the intense routines on Strictly made her too muscly and masculine.

    She told the Huffington Post ahead of the BBC show's final: 'I've got a six-pack and no boobs, I'm turning into a boy.
    'I've definitely toned up, I'm obviously not used to doing this much intense exercise. But it feels good, I feel healthy.'
    Keeping up the fitness drive, Abbey's latest campaign shots, as well as her ones for Ultimo, show she should have no cause for concern over her figure.
    The model and TV presenter, who is married to footballer Peter Crouch, has taken over as the new face of the lingerie brand from Michael Bublé's wife Luisana Lopilato.
