Jennifer Lopez wrapped up 2023 by showing off every bit of her abs.
Mother the actress was spotted taking a casual walk on the white sand beach in St. Barts in the Caribbean on Saturday, New Year’s Eve.
Lopez, 54, was photographed in a black string bikini that highlighted her toned abs and arms, along with a flowy patterned cape. She paired the look with a wide-brimmed cream hat.
Late on Sunday night, the star marked New Year’s Eve with an Instagram post featuring a series of photos of herself wearing a cream silk suit, a dark fur jacket and a black flat-brimmed hat.
Lopez and husband Ben Affleck, who welcomed 2024 together, could be seen swaying hand-in-hand as they watched the fireworks outside their window in a video Lopez posted to her Instagram Story on Sunday night.

Jennifer Lopez revealed photos of the gorgeous red dress she wore to the holiday party with Ben Affleck
The singer and actress opted for a more casual look while on holiday, which was a stark contrast to the glamorous ensemble she donned for her and Affleck’s Christmas party at their Los Angeles home last month.
For the evening, Lopez wore a long red dress by Magda Butrym, which featured rose appliqués on the right shoulder. She then shared three pictures with a festive Christmas look on her Instagram.
One photo included a shot of Lopez applying lip gloss while showing off her long-sleeved dress. Another close-up shot captured her Marry me star staring directly into her reflection, showing off her glow: a dark bronze smokey eye, bright peachy blush and a bare metallic lip gloss. Lopez’s hair was styled with Old Hollywood-inspired glamour.
