Eva Longoria is sunning it up in Marbella with her family, which is a little different from what the average family holiday looks like, for starters they have Fendi toast at the luxury resort she's at. I mean she's also working out? But maybe that's just alien to me? One thing we can all relate to though, is the life of its own that your hair decides to embark upon in different climates.

With her sun-soaked hair swept up into a messy pony for a casual evening Eva told fans and followers; 'My hair looks so crazy right now', but I'd have to disagree. Though undeniably a little relaxed, the look is serving beachy holiday joy and she still looks abso stunning.

Eva's still currently getting used to her new lob style, cut in back in May, it's the shortest we've seen her tresses in... well forever? While short hair may be cooler in the heat, and physically less hair to handle, it's also trickier to tame with up-dos when it's misbehaving.

It can take a while to get used to just how gravity defying short hair can be, but Eva needn't worry, this short messy pony with her beachy waves is definitely a winner in our eyes.

While it's certainly no Gabrielle Solis approved 'do, we're sure she'd appreciate the Fendi toast and dedication to a super fit bod.
