Hang 10 (out of 10).

While plenty of celebrities have long proven that a great beach day look doesn’t always have to be practical (see: Kendall Jenner’s itty-bitty bikini or Emily Ratajkowkski’s chaotic crochet one-piece), Emma Watson just took a different kind of unconventional approach by pairing sun with sparkles during her latest Prada Beauty campaign.

On Saturday, the actress debuted the new swimsuit photos in question when sharing a series of surfing snaps with her 72 million Instagram followers. In one of the posts, Watson took a break from hitting the waves to pose on the beach in a black long-sleeve one-piece swimsuit, which featured two crystal-embellished side-baring cutouts and a midriff-skimming zip-up neckline. As if that wasn’t head-turning enough on its own, the A-lister added a stack of chunky silver Prada statement necklaces, playing into one of summer's biggest trends and finished with two colorful bracelets.

Emma opted to juxtapose her flashy beach look with a natural glam, sporting a bronzy no-makeup makeup look and a clear manicure, and she finished the ensemble by tying her hair into a low messy bun. Additional photos from the campaign saw the star lounging on a surfboard in a sleeveless two-tone zip-up suit and playing with her dog in a slouchy white knit sweater and matching bikini bottoms.

Aside from taking the time to plug her Prada Beauty partnership over the weekend, Emma was also sure to share snaps from a recent shoot in promotion of the luxury new gin line she launched with her brother, Alex Watson.

“We took the gin, the dog and some really fly @Loewe clothes on holiday to do a first tasting of Renais with our nearest and dearest. We loved sharing it with all of you. 🥺” the actress wrote on Instagram. “Please get in touch if you would like to distribute us. We’d love to get Renais further around the world. 🌎 Happy holidays everyone. Love E + A (& Sofia 🐶)”

Georgia's parliament speaker vows to override presidential veto on divisive foreign influence law
Georgia’s parliament speaker on Monday vowed to override the presidential veto on divisive legislation that sparked weeks of mass protests by critics who see it as a threat to democratic freedoms and the country’s aspirations to join the European Union. The law, passed by the parliament earlier this month, requires media and nongovernmental organizations and other nonprofits to register as “pursuing the interests of a foreign power” if they receive more than 20% of their funding from abroad. The opposition has denounced the bill as “the Russian law,” because Moscow uses similar legislation to crack down on independent news media, nonprofits and activists critical of the Kremlin.
