Strictly’s Saffron Barker shows off dramatic tan lines in thong swimsuit in Barbados

SAFFRON Barker certainly won't be feeling pasty when she returns to the UK in the New Year.

The 19-year-old YouTube star has been soaking up the sun in the Caribbean and has got some pretty impressive white bits to prove it.

Strolling along the beach in Barbados with her best friend and fellow YouTuber Anastasia Kingnorth, Saffron showed off her enviable curves in a colourful thong swimsuit.

The pink and orange one piece featured a plunging neckline and snake print detail, and appeared to be a different fit to Saffron's previous swimwear - judging by her very visible tan lines.

The Strictly Come Dancing star accessorised her look with a gold necklace and quirky sunglasses as she cooled down in the ocean.

She later covered up in a white kaftan as she and Anastasia strolled along the sand chatting away.

Anastasia also flashed the flesh in a skimpy asymmetrical bikini top and high-waisted bottoms.

Yesterday Saffron took to Instagram to share her own holiday snap with her 1.4 million followers.

Posing on the well-known Sandy Lane beach, Saffron captioned the photo: "Honestly had the most incredible Christmas spent with my family & now only two days later I’m celebrating new Year with my bestfriend in Barbados?! Feel like one lucky girl  @eliteislanduk gifted."

Speaking to Strictly host, Tess Daly, after leaving the competition, Saffron said: "I've had the absolute time of my life and it's all down to him [AJ]. It's been amazing.

"I'd like to thank AJ so much, when I look at what I was like on week one I was so embarrassed and shy. He's really taken me out of my shell. Thank you so much for everything."
