    Brooklyn Beckham, Kylie Jenner, Alexa Chung and Rita Ora have all gone on beautiful winter holidays...

    Going back to work hurts, but it hurts just ever so slightly more when you consider that many an A-lister is only just heading off on their holidays.

    Yes, from the Kardashians to the Beckhams, the rich and famous are jetting out the cold winter months altogether, heading for warmer climates and turquoise waters to banish their post-holiday blues.

    Miami, St Barts and Mustique are the destinations of choice for those seeking some winter sun, while others stay snug and festive in luxurious ski chalets. The Beckhams head to the Maldives at around this time every year, while Alexa Chung has gathered a whole gang of pals to join her at Soho House in Miami. Justin Bieber and new girlfriend Hailey Baldwin joined the cruise set, giving us PDAs on yachts, in clubs - wherever they could basically.

    It's a chance, of course, to show off a spring 2016 trend or two, after all, these celebs can't wait around for the warmer weather to arrive in Blighty. 2016's #SwimwearGoals have been set, mainly by Rita Ora who has modelled dozens of designs just on the balcony of her Miami hotel room.
