Lorde's beach getaway

After a hectic year performing, attending A-list parties, recording and spending time with bestie Taylor Swift, Lorde has returned home to New Zealand for some much needed rest and relaxation.
The singer is keeping things low-key with a family beach holiday.
On Christmas Day she posted a photo of
herself catching rays on the water with her father.

Lorde's mother Sonja Yelich later updated fans with a pic of her daughter sans makeup, wearing a tiny pink vest from when she was little.
