Keeping warm: Despite the sunshine and high-twenties forecast, Dannii complained of 'icy winds' and wrapped up in a dressing gown


It's a hard life for a Marks & Spencer model.

Dannii Minogue kept her fans back in the U.K. green with envy today as she lounged on the beach in Miami.

The 39-year-old showed off an enviable post-baby body in a purple one-piece as she filmed the summer advertising campaign.

The Australian was later joined by her fellow models Twiggy, Lisa Snowdon, VV Brown and Ana Beatriz Barros for an afternoon on a boat out at sea.

The group posed up a storm on the deck of the boat surrounded by handsome male models.

Twiggy, 61, wore a black and white striped jacket over white trousers, while Lisa Snowdon wore a yellow, black and white shift dress with a cinched-in waist.

Singer VV Brown also sported a chic lemon yellow dress with a wide-brimmed hat, and Brazilian model Ana wore a black and white-print maxi dress.

In yet another scene, the group were all filmed together for this first time in their week-long shoot, strutting down the street.

The models don't seem to need to act like the best of girlfriends, as they are also bonding off camera too.

The group dined at the exclusive Soho Beach House last night with Dannii's boyfriend Kris Smith, who accompanied her on the shoot, and also her X Factor fellow judge Louis Walsh.

While the women appeared to be enjoying more of a summer holiday than working, Dannii told fans on Twitter that while sunny, it isn't quite as warm in the Florida city as she'd hoped.

'Sunshine in Miami,' she wrote, 'But not hot. Icy wind. Kris buying more clothes to keep warm!'

It may have been chilly out on the water, but with the forecast in the high-twenties Celsius, her fans may not have had much sympathy for the star.

While the girls were certainly looking stylish in their nautical wear today, Dannii and Lisa Snowdon were both sporting some questionable style earlier in the week.

The pair looked more like school marms than chic thirty-somethings on the weekend.
Capital FM presenter Lisa was spotted walking around the set in an unflattering maxi dress with curlers in her hair.

Meanwhile Dannii was sporting an ageing bouffant hairstyle that made her appear twice her age.

The X Factor judge's knee-length dress didn't do much for her petite figure as she made her way to the shoot clutching her dressing gown.

The M&S models' makeovers were in stark contrast to their chic appearance during the week.

Lisa was spotted holding a hot pink bikini for a beach shoot for the summer advertising campaign.

Earlier this week, Dannii was seen taking part in a wedding scene for the advert with VV Brown and Twiggy, wearing a variety of summer frocks and colourful floral accessories.

Wearing a chic print dress and a hot pink fascinator, the X Factor judge and her equally colourful co-stars appeared to be shooting a wedding scene as they laughed and threw confetti.

As well as her commitments with Marks and Spencer, her fashion line Project D and being a mother to little Ethan, Dannii recently revealed she is thinking about making her musical comeback in 2011.
