Alexa Chung and Daisy Lowe go topless on holiday (pictures)

Models Alexa Chung and Daisy Lowe are enjoying the sunshine on a European getaway for The X Factor's Nick Grimshaw's 31st birthday.

Alexa, 31, and Daisy, 26, were pictured soaking up the sunshine and relaxing by the pool without their tops on.

Daisy lay reading The Death of Bunny Munro by Nick Cave while wearing sunglasses and leopard print bikini bottoms, while Alexa was snapped topless by the pool as she held a deck of playing cards.

The photos were shared on Instagram by Pixie Geldof, who was part of the group celebrating Nick's birthday. She wrote "smashing holiday" alongside the photo of Alexa.

Daisy Lowe posted a photo of Grimshaw posing by the sea and wrote: "My seaside hero."

According to the Daily Mail, the friends were spotted lunching at Mallorca's Cala Deia restaurant on Friday.

In December, Nick was pictured on a glamorous holiday in the Maldives with Alexa Chung and last week he posted photos from his holiday in Ibiza.
