On Monday, Ciara posted some photos from her relaxing beach getaway to her Instagram account.
Ciara flaunts her curves in a dark blue bikini in a series photos from the beach
The photos show her in a stylish dark blue ribbed two-piece swimsuit with high-rise bottoms.
The swimsuit’s top was styled like a T-shirt, complete with short sleeves and a deep V-neck that, when the buttons were undone, revealed her bra.
The 37-year-old singer, who was wearing aviator sunglasses, looked like a cover girl as she posed on a stand-up paddle board in azure water.
Her thick, wavy hair cascaded carelessly down her back. The key-adorned silver chain hung around the mother of three’s neck.
She simply wrote ‘Outside’ as the post’s caption.
Since 2016, the singer has been married to NFL player Russell Wilson. They have two kids together: daughter Sienna Princess, 5, and son Win Harrison, 2.
Ciara also has a nine-year-old Future Zahir Wilburn, whom she shares with the rapper Future.
She had previously stated that the end of her relationship with the 39-year-old rapper was the catalyst for her decision to begin ‘loving on herself.’

After disbanding Future, she told herself, ‘I’ve got to figure out how to navigate in the next chapter of my life,’ as she explained to Women’s Health in November.
‘All the things I was aspiring to have at that time, even thinking about love, I was like, It’s going to happen when it’s supposed to,’ she explained.
‘But I can’t love anybody to the best of my ability if I’m not loving on myself. I can’t be the best mom if I’m not loving on myself. So I put more focus on me, taking care of me; it was the best thing I could have done.’
The key to her new mindset was ‘knowing what gives you a release, knowing what gives you joy,’ and deciding to ‘Go to that.’
At the beginning of 2015, she started dating her the NFL quarterback, and in March of 2016, they made the news public that they were engaged.
Sienna and Win were quickly adopted, and the couple is now raising all three children together, along with Future.
When Ciara considered it, she said: ‘When I put more focus on me, I felt like I grew into another level of womanhood. Now, that’s a part of my armor in my life. I will always go back to it. And the next time, when I have my next baby, that place has done me well, loving on me.’
She argued: ‘I am so much better to my precious babies because of that mentality. I’m better to my husband because of that. I’m keeping my sexy up. I’m doing the things that fill me up, that make me happy, that get me going.’
