Bikini babe: Louise Redknapp showed off her enviable bikini body on Instagram on Saturday, as she bid farewell to Dubai

Wearing just a stylish patterned two piece, the stunning star leaned casually against a hammock, to indicate a thoroughly chilled out vibe.

She was perfectly golden from a week away with her husband Jamie and two sons, in the winter sun and flashed a satisfied smile as she looked into the distance.

The post was shared to Louise's fashion page on Instagram, which she shares with best friend Emma Thatcher.

Louise captioned the post: 'Time to say goodbye to Dubai - you can shop my holiday wardrobe on AStyleAlbum.com'

Flaunt it! Louise reconnected with her husband of 18 years Jamie after her busy rehearsal schedule for the BBC ballroom stalwart on the holiday, sharing one picture together on Friday

Making the most of the last hours of her holiday, Louise and her husband of 18 years Jamie also shared a picture together on Friday.

Louise highlighted her ample cleavage in the plunging halterneck that featured a gold clasp detail, matching that of her bottoms.

Taking to the photosharing site, she captioned the pic: 'Last day of our hols and trying to grab all my boys for a holiday pic so hard dragging them away from footie on the beach !!!!!!!'

Family time: In another candid pic, she shared her football pundit hubby with his arm loving around their eldest son Charles as they strolled across the idyllic white sand

It was surely a well-earned break for Louise, having worked tremendously hard over the course of this year's Strictly.

She reached the finale last month and competed against fellow celebs Danny Mac and Ore Oduba, but lost out on the trophy to Ore.

Despite not walking away with the coveted glitterball Louise thanked dance partner Kevin Clifton for teaching her to dance, shortly afterwards.

She wrote: 'I have loved learning to dance over the past 4 months.

And just wanted to say a very big thank you to everyone who voted for us and kept us in the competition, @keviclifton I couldn't have done it without thank so much for everything x.'

Third place: Louise, 42, will surely be enjoying taking a well-earned break over the holiday season, having worked tremendously hard over the course of this year's Strictly Come Dancing
