While many of us are currently bundling up in our biggest puffers to ward off the mid-winter chill, Dua Lipa is somewhere else entirely. Over the past few days, the pop star has posted a series of updates from her vacation in Miami, Florida, including everything from sunset jet skiing with boyfriend Anwar Hadid, posing for group selfies with her beach-ready pals, and showing off their enviable food spread for the evening (think lots of chips and guacamole).

And if all of that doesn’t make you want to book a last-minute flight to warmer climes, she saved the most enticing moment of her vacation for its own post: a snap of Lipa lounging out in the sun in a marbled turquoise French-cut string bikini. It’s a throwback shape that’s seen quite a resurgence over the past few years—Bella Hadid’s been known to wear it as well—but Lipa’s psychedelic, swirly-patterned take on it feels fresh as ever. She might have proclaimed herself half asleep in the accompanying Instagram caption, but her vibrant swimsuit is sure to boost anyone’s waning energy levels.
