    The superstar singer welcomed in the new year in true showbiz style...

    Beyoncé has treated fans to a glimpse of her 2014 so far by sharing a selection of seriously glamorous shots from her New Year's Eve celebrations with husband Jay Z and daughter Blue Ivy.

    To ring in 2014, the superstar singer and her rapper husband donned their finest glad rags to attend a lavish party thrown by US music mogul P Diddy at his luxe Miami mansion.

    Hopping on a black scooter (because limos are so 2013...), Beyoncé and Jay arrived at P Diddy's private estate where the likes of Pharrell, Jeremy Piven, Robin Thicke and model Jourdan Dunn were already ringing in the new year.

    For her sexy New Year's ensemble, the 32-year-old Grown Woman singer opted for a black and gold tiger print Versace shirt with thigh-skimming shorts, which she teamed with orange nails and a bright pink lipstick pop.

    Mr Carter looked equally as suave in a bright blue paisley print tuxedo jacket and bow tie, with his obligatory rapper chain still smartly in place.

    Even daughter Blue Ivy ensured she was fully accessorised with her own matching baby bling draped elegantly over her white silk gown. Adorable.

    Beyoncé and Jay were clearly the life and soul of the star-studded party as they swung each other round the dancefloor and let daughter Blue Ivy try on party hats. Too cute.

    Former Destiny's Child members Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams were also among the guests, joining their ex-bandmate on the dancefloor where they really got into the party spirit, singing, dancing and clapping as Jourdan threw some seriously sexy shapes.

    All in all, probably the most epic New Year's bash we've ever laid eyes on.
