Tones and I continues to flaunt weight loss journey in very chic ensemble
The singer, real name Toni Watson, shared a short video to Instagram on Friday which showed off her slender figure.
Dressed in a sheer ruched top and a mini skirt, Tones and I, 32, held her phone up at a high camera angle and shook her long blonde locks for the 'fit check.
The ARIA winner twisted from side to side and smiled as she held one hand placed on her stomach.
She accessorised the form-fitting look with a full face of make up, layered gold necklaces, and an Instagram filter.

The Melbourne-born hitmaker recently celebrated her 32nd birthday in Los Angeles.
'LA B-day,' Tones and I captioned a carousel of images showcasing her time in the studio and blowing out 32 candles on a birthday cake.
'Also to all the videos that were made by the people I love THANK YOU! Even from all the way over the other side of the world I felt so much love. I'm so grateful!' she said.
'My girls here that made it so special and I can't thank you enough! Seriously, you made it the best day! Now bring on Vegas!!!'
The singer has gone on an incredible weight loss journey since she last toured Australia last year and has continued to embrace her burgeoning passion for fashion.
In August 2024, the singer addressed her dramatic transformation during an interview with Cosmopolitan Australia.
'When this [fame] all happened, I was not happy,' she reflected.
'I grew up as an athlete, playing basketball, and honestly those years of my life, from busking to the last year—those were me at my most unhappy with myself.'
'Being in this depressive cycle, with everything that was going on, I didn't have the mental health to say, right, I want to work hard on myself,' she told the publication.
'And the world definitely didn't make me feel better about myself. If there was any body positivity to be had, it wasn't coming my way. That affected it even more.'
'I've lost weight, so apparently that's the biggest thing that's ever happened to me in my life,' Tones and I added sarcastically.
'Everything is up for discussion. My body shape, my music, my livelihood, my relationship.
'I wish I could say that I could be someone where that doesn't affect me. But it does. Especially when like, my nanna, my family – they can see everything,' she added.
Tones and I explained her decision to embrace a more feminine style has long been the aesthetic she relates to.
'I'm not a tomboy, I'm a girly girl and I always have been,' she said. 'But I didn't feel comfortable in myself and my body, so I covered myself up.'
Tones and I's introduction to the music industry is the stuff of mythology. She was discovered busking on a Byron Bay street corner with her Casio keyboard.
The singer had been living out of a van for two years, prior to being offered a record deal.
She said the clothes she put on her back after queuing up for public showers was the farthest thing from a priority.
On stage, the singer felt the demands to be 'physically interesting' (if not 'appealing') in her pop star career, and admitted she compensated for her inability to wear the clothes that she wanted with 'colourful' streetwear.
But as time goes on, she feels more excited about fashion and using that to showcase her creative personality as much as she does in music.
'Going into this happy place now, I love myself more and I want to experiment with clothes like I used to when I was comfortable in my own skin,' she said.
It has been a big year for Tones and I, who released her second studio album, Beautifully Ordinary, and has performed with her heroes such as Pink and Cyndi Lauper.

Sainsbury's gorgeous £13 summer dress is great for bigger busts, can be worn until winter & even has pockets
SHOPPERS are rushing to snap up a £13 Sainsbury's summer dress, that is super flattering on all body types. With just a few weeks left of the school summer holidays, many Brits are likely hoping to make the most of the hot weather, with days out at the beach and last-minute trips abroad. And what better way to get yourself excited for summer plans, than to treat yourself to a brand new frock. Sainsbury's Tu is one of the best-loved brands on the high street, and is constantly wowing us with its stylish but affordable fashion. From cute dresses to on-trend work attire, the supermarket fast-fashion range always hits the mark, and its summer collection is no exception. Elegant summer dress One dress in particular that has caught the eye of fashion fans is the Yellow Square Neck Poplin Midaxi Dress which has been slashed from £26 to £13, a saving of 50%. The stunning frock is perfect for those with bigger busts, as it has chunky straps, meaning you can wear a supportive bra underneath. It is made with a lightweight fabric, which will keep you cool on hot summer days, and even has pockets, so you don't even have to take a bag out with you. Pair the bright-coloured gown with chunky wedge sandals and eye-catching accessories for a statement holiday look. The dress is available in a wide range of sizes, from size six to size 24. However, it has proved so popular with fashion fans that it is sold out in some sizes, so you better be quick to snap up the deal. Shoppers have been raving about the summer frock on the Sainsbury's website. Sainsbury's scraps in-store changing rooms leaving shoppers furious One customer said: "I really like the cut and colour of this dress and it has thick shoulder straps so you can wear your regular bra." A second said: "I loved this dress from the moment I spotted it in store and thus I purchased it the second I was able to! "Fabric wise this dress is very much a summer wear, though I suspect if you layer just right you could well push it into winter." A third shopper wrote: "This is a lovely dress. Lovely material. "I'm a size 12 and it fitted perfectly." A fourth remarked: "This lovely dress is made out of quality material, in a triumphant colour and cut beautifully. Is supermarket fashion the new high street? DEPUTY Fashion Editor Abby McHale weighs in: The supermarkets have really upped their game when it comes to their fashion lines. These days, as you head in to do your weekly food shop you can also pick up a selection of purse-friendly, stylish pieces for all the family. Tesco has just announced a 0.7 per cent increase in the quarter thanks to a 'strong growth in clothing' and M&S has earnt the title of the number one destination for womenswear on the high street. Asda's clothing line George has made £1.5 million for the supermarket in 2023, 80 per cent of Sainsbury's clothes sold at full price rather than discounted and Nutmeg at Morrisons sales are also up 2 per cent in the past year. So what is it about supermarket fashion that is becoming so successful? Apart from the clothing actually being affordable, it's good quality too - with many being part of schemes such as the Better Cotton Initiative. A lot of the time they keep to classic pieces that they know will last the customer year after year. Plus because they buy so much stock they can turn around pieces quickly and buy for cheaper because of the volumes.

'Nude artist' Dina Broadhurst shocks with her most outrageous post yet as followers beg her to join OnlyFans
Dina Broadhurst is no stranger to pushing the envelope - but her latest Instagram post may have officially broken the internet. The 48-year-old nude artist stunned fans on Sunday when she uploaded a jaw-dropping series of mirror selfies in a barely-there yellow T-shirt. The bold designer piece featured dozens of large oval-shaped cut-outs across the bust, arms and stomach - revealing generous flashes of skin and leaving little to the imagination. Worn without a bra and paired only with a black G-string, the cheeky ensemble drew instant comparisons to Swiss cheese. Dina snapped the sizzling selfies in what appeared to be a fitting room, using her signature Bottega Veneta iPhone case to cover her face while allowing her chiselled physique to steal the spotlight. Her honey-brown locks were styled sleek and straight, while her makeup highlighted her natural beauty, letting the attention-grabbing outfit take centre stage. In one photo, she struck a playful peace sign while jutting out her hip. In another, she smouldered into the camera, drawing attention to her flawless complexion and gym-honed curves. Her caption-free post didn't need words - her followers knew exactly what to say. 'You are a bad influence on me,' one follower quipped. 'Gorgeous Dina,' gushed another, while dozens flooded the comments with fire emojis and suggestions she should join adult platform OnlyFans. 'Only YOU,' another admirer added, echoing sentiments from followers who have long admired Dina's fearless self-expression and sultry aesthetic. It's far from the first time the Sydney-based socialite has made headlines for her boundary-pushing content. But it's not just her fashion and selfies that have people talking. Dina recently caused a stir when she slashed the listing price of her sprawling Darling Point apartment by a staggering $3.1 million - taking the harbourside pad to auction with a guide of $8.4 million after initially listing it for $11.5 million. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence - which she purchased in 2022 with ex-boyfriend Max Shepherd for $5.2 million - was transformed into a luxe home studio after a glamorous renovation. The former couple sparked reunion rumours earlier this year when they were spotted sunbathing topless together at Sydney's Kutti Beach, despite parting ways in 2023. Speaking exclusively to Daily Mail Australia in January, Dina revealed she had pulled the listing from the market to reconsider her options. 'The property has been pulled for a few months as I am considering retaining the property for myself,' she said at the time. 'I'm doing a trial living here over the summer until I work out if I will keep it or buy overseas next year instead.' 'The property has had ample interest and a decision will be made shortly as to whether we proceed with the sale or not,' she added. Insiders had long predicted that the $11.5 million price tag might be a stretch in the current market, and the new guide appears to reflect a more competitive strategy to entice serious buyers.
