By FAY STRANG
Most people struggle to get out of bed following a big night on the town.
But for Rihanna it seems to be a walk in the park, or the beach in this case, as she headed to a photo-shoot on Saturday in Barbados despite the fact she only rolled home at 6am that very same day.
Showing her impressive work ethic the singer looked nothing short of amazing, albeit with plenty of make-up, as she turned up the heat in a sultry and sophisticated shoot - looking a million miles from the party animal who ‘dutty wined’ her way through Barbados Carnival just hours before.

The simple yet stylish ensemble featured a collection of pearls in place of a belt, while the only other accessory she wore was a pair of gold hoop earrings and a couple of rings.
