Our invites to Beyonce’s 31st birthday celebrations back in September may have been lost in the post, but now the singer has given us a sneak peek at the festivities with candid photos on her IAmBeyonce Tumblr page.

PICS: BEYONCE’S PERSONAL PHOTO ALBUM

In one shot, Beyonce shows off her smoking bikini body in a cleavage-baring pic of herself on a yacht, wearing a printed bikini top and kimono and looking gorgeous despite not wearing a stitch of makeup.

The singer also posted a pic of herself cutting her chocolate birthday cake, which was signed ‘Blue and Jay,’ and also shared a shot of herself relaxing on board the luxury ship in a preppy ‘J’-crested jumper.

Beyonce is no stranger to sharing intimate family pics via social networking sites, and recently, she’s also been using them to promote her political views, launching her Instagram page earlier this month with a shot of herself wearing a ‘Texans for Obama’ slogan tee.
