What a Seine: Buoyant Mila Kunis heats up a wet day in Paris in seductive Dior boat shoot
It may well be one of the most appealing cities in the world, but even Paris can't style out a grey, drizzly March morning on the river.
Any Parisian worth their salt would take one look at the foggy miasma descending upon the beautiful stretch of water then head to the nearest cafe to drink hot chocolate.
But today, the turgid early Spring weather was broken by an unexpected heatwave... in the sizzling form of Hollywood actress Mila Kunis, 28.
Paris, Paris! Mila Kunis braved the inclement March weather on the Seine river today for a Christian Dior shoot
The Friends with Benefit beauty was taking a boat cruise for a Christian Dior shoot, and managed the nigh on impossible feat of looking sultry and soggy.
Dressed in a stunning pale pink gown, that was tailored to flatter her stunning curves, Kunis posed lasciviously over the side of the boat.
Expertly ignoring the pesky wind all the while, the young starlet held a candle to her Hollywood predecessor Audrey Hepburn who starred in the 1964 film, Paris When It Sizzles.
The stunning star topped AskMen.com's Most Desirable Women of 2012 poll in the third position.
Although she's an Oscar nominee, she realises she has flaws just like everyone else.

But she has revealed that despite her comely attributes, Mila still has insecurities about her appearance.
J'adore Dior: Mila is thrilled to be at the heart of the Spring campaign for the iconic French fashion house
While discussing her biggest skin care issues with skincare expert Scott Vincent Borba last year, she revealed she has problems with blemishes.
She said: [My biggest issue] is breakouts and how I can prevent myself from breaking out with little, tiny, really tiny, pimples that show up.'
Kunis is following in the footsteps of her Black Swan co-star Natalie Portman, as the latest celebrity name to join the label's ranks of A-list models.
The softly-lit campaign for the label's spring 2012 collection sees the Ukraine-born actress, 28, dressed in black, posing with the new Miss Dior handbag.
It is a major coup for a girl who describes herself as a 'jeans and T-shirt' type.
Miss Kunis told WWD: 'I'm honestly just learning about fashion... In my daily life, I don’t wear the most feminine pieces. But I love to feel feminine when I’m on the red carpet.'
'I find that Dior is an incredibly grounded house,' she continued. 'I always thought what Dior does is so sophisticated, feminine and beautiful.'
The feeling is mutual too - bosses at Dior are besotted with the rising star, who last year starred alongside Justin Timberlake in Friends With Benefits.
Delphine Arnault, deputy general manager at Dior, told WWD: 'Mila Kunis is a very talented young actress... Her performance in Black Swan was remarkable. She is very gifted.'
Explaining why Dior was looking to Hollywood for its campaigns, she added: 'Christian Dior designed several costumes for the movies.
'And we have maintained personal relationships with such actresses as Marlene Dietrich, Rita Hayworth, Ava Gardner, Sophia Loren, Marilyn Monroe, Liz Taylor and Grace Kelly.'
