With a bit of creativity, just about anything can work as a swimsuit cover-up, from a sarong to a casual sundress. And if you’re British singer-songwriter Rita Ora, that includes a simple neck scarf. 

The “You Only Love Me” singer shared a collection of vacation pics from Ibiza on Instagram on Aug. 12, and in the first three, she knotted a patterned scarf around her waist atop her lacy purple swimsuit. The 32-year-old accessorized with a beach bag, a pair of round tortoise shell sunglasses and heeled Jeffrey Campbell rhinestone sandals. Ora showed off her intricate designer footwear in a close-up pic, which also showcased her funky ombré pedicure and layers of golden ankle bracelets.

In a different beachside ensemble, the Fifty Shades of Grey actress donned a hot pink string bikini with a floor-length crochet cover-up of the same hue over top. She accessorized with a chunky necklace, colorful straw bag and a belly chain worn over the cover-up.

Tons of the star’s 16.1 million IG followers piped into the comments section to compliment Ora’s pedicure in particular.

“Babe those nails 😍😍,” Oscar Duke wrote.

“I love your toe manni 🔥,” someone else added.

“vacation mode ON !!! enjoy (hopefully) some relaxing days off 🫶💕☀️,” one fan noted.

“The anklets….hear her coming 😍😍,” Colby Smith noted of Ora’s ankle accessories.

We hope Ora enjoyed some well-deserved R&R while in Ibiza, as she’s gearing up to play the Szin Festival in Hungary on Aug. 26, followed by the N-Joy Starshow in Germany on Sept. 8.
