Swimsuit beauties Alessandra Ambrosio and Candice Swanepoel make a splash in St Tropez and share stunning snaps on Instagram

Champagne, sunshine, a cruise aboard a sleek yacht... Alessandra Ambrosio and Candice Swanepoel have got it made in St Tropez and they know it.

The supermodels were making the most of their free time in the French Riviera - where they've been shooting their new Victoria's Secret ad campaign - by posting more pictures on their social networking sites.

Alessandra was only too happy to share a picture of herself posing on the deck of a yacht via Instagram on Monday.

The photo shows the 32-year-old Brazilian beauty stretching her long and lean body towards the sun while clad in a scanty, pale pink two-piece bathing suit.

Alessandra captioned the photo by writing: 'La vie est belle!!! Wishing u a great week... Uma ótima semana a todos...' 

'Life is beautiful' but so was Alessandra as she joined Candice for a boat ride around the bay.

This was quite a change in temperature for Alessandra, who joined her other Angels to shoot an ad campaign for Victoria's Secret at the Louvre in Paris.
