She’s made a name for herself as something of a fashion icon since her time in Girls Aloud.

And now Nicola Roberts has proved that her sense of style extends to every aspect of hr life – even when she should probably be worrying about things other than how she looks.

The 27-year-old singer accessorised her lifejacket with a large floral hair clip as she took to the water on a jet ski during celebrations for Tamara Ecclestone’s wedding in the south of France on Wednesday.

Nicola managed to still look as fashion-forward as ever as she showed off her skills on the vehicle, and fiished off her look with a large pair of sunglasses.

The singer left her flame red hair loose for the outing, causing it to blow in the breeze as she skidded across the water.

Nicola’s jet skiing experience came after she helped friend Tamara and her new husband Jay Rutland celebrate their wedding at a somewhat raucous beach party at the Grand Hotel Du Cap-Ferrat in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, France.

The singer looked very content as she took to the waves on the motored watercraft with the fresh sea air in her lungs.

And, of course being a safe seafarer, the pop star made sure she wore the appropriate floatation device as she took to the waves wearing a life vest.

Nicola has long championed the pale and interesting look so it is likely she made sure she applied the sun cream before she headed out into the sunshine.

With a white theme for the wedding’s celebrations, the former Girls Aloud star was wearing a pair of white trousers for her afternoon of fun.

Nicola had earlier been seen with a white jacket over her navy bikini top as she celebrated the nuptials alongside long-term boyfriend, Charlie Fennell.

Nicola and Charlie have been in a relationship since 2008, yet hardly ever make many public appearances together.

Clearly preferring a more subtle approach to their relationship – and to safeguard themselves from the intrusion of the paparazzi – the two do not step out together very often.

They did enjoy a romantic meal together in celebration of Valentine’s Day back in February where Nicola stepped out in a bright red dress with her man at her side.

As a member of Girls Aloud, it is more likely that the pretty redhead would be seen out in public with one of her fellow band mates.
