Jessica Alba showed off her bombshell bikini body in a barely there black two piece while frolicking on a beach on this weekend during her family trip to the Greek islands.
The 43-year-old was accompanied by her dashing husband Cash Warren, 45, as well as their children – they share two daughters called Honor, 16, and Haven, 12, plus a son called Hayes, six.
For her latest outing, Jessica slipped into a skimpy black thong swimsuit that allowed her to bare her enviably taut midriff and serve up a generous helping of cleavage.
Her vertiginous legs were on sizzling display as the Sin City: A Dame To Kill For actress sauntered across the sand and soaked up the steamy late July sunshine.
She accessorized the look with a fluttering netted wrap, which she occasionally drew close around herself during her day out at the beach with her nearest and dearest.
Letting her dark hair flutter free in the gentle breeze, she augmented the ensemble with a set of sleek dark sunglasses and added a splash of glitz with a pair of hoop earrings.
Jessica could also be spotted lounging about on a deck chair, keeping the beating rays out of her eyes by popping on a black straw at and, at other stages, a visor.
She flipped onto her front in order to read a book, a position that had the added benefit of helping her even out her tan by getting plenty of sunlight on her rear.
A cool, fruity iced beverage could be glimpsed sitting on the table beside her deck chair, as Jessica took full advantage of the delights of her latest holiday destination.
Meanwhile Cash bared his toned torso for his latest day out, going shirtless over his swim trunks as he wandered into the sea – his little son scampering along beside him.
Friends and relations could be seen gathering around Jessica’s deck chair when their food arrived, allowing them to enjoy a meal together as a family.
Cash, who is the son of Hill Street Blues actor Michael Warren, met Jessica while working as an assistant director on her critically savaged 2005 film Fantastic Four.
They spontaneously decided to get married at a Beverly Hills courthouse one day in 2008 while Jessica was heavily pregnant with Honor.
Jessica’s latest sighting comes months after she made headlines by candidly confessing that she and Honor had gone into therapy because they were squabbling too much.

After going into analysis four years ago, Jessica was able to ameliorate some of her own behavior and Honor found it easier to understand that her mother ‘was just being a parent.’
Covering the new issue of Real Simple magazine, Jessica extolled the virtues of therapy while acknowledging that ‘it’s a process and I’m not perfect.’
She dished that she decided to seek help for herself and her daughters when ‘Honor was probably 11, and we were arguing all the time about dumb stuff.’
Jessica recalled that ‘I was like, I don’t want to live like this. This is not fun. I didn’t want us to have a wedge between us.’
She explained: ‘As her mother, when I say something, she’s going to hear it as an argument or as me trying to control her. I wanted there to be someone who could explain things in a way I couldn’t.’
Said she: ‘What I said to Honor was: “I want to be a better parent to you, and this is your forum to basically talk about everything that gets on your nerves that I do.”‘
The analyst helped soften Honor’s perception of her mother’s behavior, but also helped Jessica to change the behavior itself.
‘It put me in check. Like: “Yeah, I totally do that. And I’m sorry. I’m going to work on that.” It gave her a little bit of perspective too – that I’m not the bad guy; I’m just being a parent. She’ll come out the other side of it, and I’ll still be here,’ said Jessica.

‘I just wanted to get to that point, and it worked. And the therapist allowed me to see that it’s natural for kids to disagree with their parents, and as a parent it’s not always about being right or rational in that moment,’ the home goods mogul spilled. ‘I’m not gonna front, it’s a process and I’m not perfect.’
Therapy, in Jessica’s glowing appraisal, is ‘such a valuable tool to help you process your feelings. It’s what this issue is about!’
The process ‘gets you talking about what’s going on with you and unearths the things that aren’t feeling the best or might be confusing, or things that make you happy,’ the actress opined in the magazine.
‘And just unpacking it allows you to process it, and then you can repeat good behavior and find the behaviors you want to redirect. What a great tool for anybody.’
Last year, Jessica announced that she and her daughters had initially entered therapy together but had now found their way onto separate couches.
‘We’re not doing it together anymore. They’re doing it on their own,’ the mother of three informed People magazine. ‘They’re older now.’
A couple of years ago, Jessica and Cash candidly discussed a psychologically thorny moment they experienced with their younger daughter.
On an episode of her YouTube show Getting Honest, Jessica revealed that she was left in tears when Haven walked in on her and Cash having sex.

‘It was the worst,’ said Cash. ‘We like spent five minutes in our bedroom laughing and like being like: “I can’t believe it, we just ruined our daughter! We ruined her!”‘
‘I started crying! I started crying,’ said Jessica, explaining that she then rang up Cash’s sister Koa who is ‘so good at helping us through challenges.’
Cash shared that ‘even’ his sister ‘had no advice’ – and Jessica noted that ‘by the time we called Koa, Haven had already texted her.’
An ’emergency meeting’ resulted for the family where Cash said: ‘Haven, bet that’s the last time you walk into our room without knocking?’
The upshot is that ‘now she knocks. It was like she learned her lesson!’ said Cash with a laugh as Jessica repeated that she ‘100% cried.’
Over the years, Jessica has let her fans catch a few glimpses of the strenuous fitness routine that has helped her keep her statuesque body in such exquisite fettle.
‘I attribute my athletic body to the martial arts, gymnastics, dance, and strength training I did while filming Dark Angel,’ she told PopSugar. ‘That’s made me strong and really set the bar.’
She confessed that ‘working out sucks,’ explaining: ‘love taking classes, because I’m surrounded by other people and that keeps me motivated and accountable.’
About a decade ago she had a fondness for ‘power yoga with light weights in a 105 degree room, so it’s a mix of hot yoga and strength training. I also spin.’
The ‘key’ element to ensuring she has a beneficial workout is ‘good music,’ Jessica divulged, and even shared some insight into her exercise playlist: ‘2 Chainz, Lil Wayne, Rihanna, Jay-Z, Beyoncé.’
She has also disclosed her diet tips, saying: ‘More organic produce in your life is better than packaged, I think water is essential, and if you can be active in any way shape or form, it’s always good to keep the blood flowing.’
As for exercise, she stressed the importance of regularity, telling E! News: ‘If you can just do it two or three times a week, a little bit of exercise whether it’s yoga or going for a walk or cycling class or something…go for it.’

Jessica once expressed a fondness for ‘high energy, high intensity hardcore’ workouts, saying: ‘For me it really is about how I feel after I exercise so I’m motivated to do it’
She also described happiness as ‘beauty food,’ sharing: ‘When I’m on vacation and I’m not even eating that healthy but I’m happy and sleeping – for once – I’m like: “I wish I looked like this every day!”‘ via Cosmopolitan

Jessica has in the past given credit to retinol for helping her retain her luminous complexion, saying: ‘I found retinol, which has been the greatest thing in the whole world!’
She recalled: ‘I started using it after I had my first daughter (I don’t use it when I’m pregnant); it takes away fine lines, it takes away spots and makes the texture of my skin better.’
