Most people gorge on cake and alcohol during their birthday week.
But Aliona Vilani appears to have been rather disciplined as she welcomed in her 28th.
The Strictly Come Dancing champion showed off an enviable figure in a skimpy white floral two-piece while sunning herself on Miami Beach, during a holiday to celebrate her big day last Tuesday.

The Russian-Kazakhstani beauty accessorised her swimwear with a pair of aviator shades, together with a crucifix and star pendant hanging around her neck.
She was also seen with various silicone bands around her left wrist, which usually support charities.
Despite her streamline silhouette, Aliona drew the line at going topless - unlike her fellow beach dwellers.
The pretty blonde tweeted: 'Loads of topless women on Miami Beach...oh how things have changed since 1930's.'

With the next series of Strictly just four months away, Aliona has already making a start on getting fit.
The professional dancer took to the waves to indulge in some paddleboarding as she showed off her toned and tanned figure in a lovely black and white striped bikini on Monday.
While it might look like a fairly easy pastime, paddleboarding can be very good for toning up muscles and controlling balance, two things that are very important for any dancer.

And she looked like a natural as she pushed herself alone balancing nicely on the board and was even seen on her knees having a paddle.
Although she was her own critic, tweeting that it was her first time: 'I look like Bambi doing it lol!'
Aliona has been in Miami for about a week soaking up the gorgeous weather.

She won the last series of Strictly alongside celebrity contestant, McFly star Harry Judd and no doubt will be asked back when the series returns in September.
She spends most of her time in Los Angeles where she competes, performs and teaches and has also appeared as a guest dancer on Dancing with the Stars in Hollywood.
She first appeared on Strictly in 2009, when she was partnered with Rav Wilding, but they were eliminated in week three.
Working out: Paddleboarding is not only good for balance control but for toning up too
