Jade Thirlwall showcased her toned midriff on Friday as she revealed she's joined forces with clothing brand Ellesse UK.  

The Little Mix star, 28, took to Instagram to share a series of snaps in burgundy camouflage leggings and a matching crop top and gushed she was 'super excited' about the collaboration.

She captioned the post: 'I'm super excited to announce that I am the new face of @ellesseuk. Can't wait for you guys to see the full collection coming soon #ad #ellesseuk.' 

The star paired the top with with a sheer camo burgundy long sleeved crop top. 

Jade paired her sporty outfit with casual white trainers and kept accessorises to a minimum. 

The brunette beauty styled her hair in bouncy curls and her glam make-up enhanced her flawless features.  

It comes after Jade vowed to stay on a different floor of the hotel when she resumes touring with Little Mix, now that Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards have three newborn babies between them.

Perrie welcomed her first child - a son named Axel - with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in August, while Leigh-Anne announced she had welcomed twins with fiancé Andre Gray just a day later.

In an interview aired on Lorraine, which was recorded before the pop stars gave birth, Leigh-Anne told Lorraine Kelly: 'It's just nice to do it together [with Perrie] and just share this experience - it's just so beautiful and obviously Jade's been helping us out… She's been cracking the whip for us!'

Perrie continued: 'Jade's been amazing. She's been going first and finishing last, so we can get a bit more time at home.'

Jade then added: 'I'm very excited to be an auntie again… Although I'll definitely be on a different floor of the hotel [on tour]!'

She went on: 'Can I just say, they're smashing it! We've been working so hard recently, I don't know how they've done it? They're goddesses.'

Perrie explained: 'It's because we know we're in it together. When one of us is in pain because our ankles are swelling, the other one is like, 'Mine too!''

Jade then joked: 'Don't worry, I've been joining in too - 'Oh, my ankles have been hurting as well, it's so hard!'' 

On taking their babies on tour with them, Perrie explained: 'We've been planning it, we're figuring out how to do it. I'm just apologising to my mum in advance because she is going to have her hands full… She actually can't wait! I wouldn't have it any other way.'

And on whether their partners are going to be hands-on dads, Leigh-Anne exclaimed: 'They'd better be!' Perrie jumped in: 'They thought they were having the babies when we were on tour! That's lovely, so sweet but we were like, 'No, they'll probably have to come.''

Leigh-Anne continued: 'They are so excited, it's lovely to see.' And Perrie agreed: 'They've been so supportive.'

Discussing how the band has now been together for ten years, Perrie exclaimed: 'It's wild isn't it?' Leigh-Anne then remembered: 'We were thinking about our first interview with you [Lorraine], think how many years ago that was?'

Jade agreed: 'I think that was one of the first interviews we ever did.'

Lorraine exclaimed: 'What you've achieved is absolutely brilliant! A lot of people talk about the negative aspects of what you do, but the positives -
