"This is a new bathing suit I designed and my friend Bego made for me. I always need to create my own for the summer!" reads the caption of Shakira's latest post. In the picture, the 43-year-old looks seductively over her shoulder, while wearing nothing but a tiny purple bathing suit.

With her back facing the camera and an inviting smile in the direction of the lens, her curly mane flowing over her shoulders and the dreamlike scenery in the background - the Colombian singer knows exactly what her fans want to see.

But it's not just the mesmerizing setting that feeds the imagination. Shakira's legendary hips are on full display, while her backside is covered by almost nothing. The beaded fringe leaves plenty of skin on show – enough for her legion of Instagram fans to go into overdrive.
