Her favorite hotspots were the warm Mediterranean waters off the coast of Majorca, Spain, as well as the British Virgin Islands, where she traveled with sons William and Harry. Even when it got hot, she kept it classy: No string bikinis for Diana. The sporty one-piece look suited her just fine, highlighting her slender figure without showing too much skin.
