Forget about glittering baubles, must-have heels, and those so-called It-bags! The accessory of choice on the fashion scene is a tattoo. And why not? If the design is well chosen, an epidermis accent can be timeless, seasonless, and blend well with any ensemble! Take a look at these fashion fixtures who express their personal style via permanent marks, ranging from Chinese sayings to animated characters:

Tattoos can be the perfect accessory! I like the small accent ones (though I have 3 decent sized ones from my rockabilly days)…I think when they show you have to play down the other accessories……

I am so old fashion! The tattoo craze (for non-biker babes) really started up around 1990, when I was living in Hawaii. EVERYONE had one there. I toyed with the idea and even created my own designs (I couldn’t decide between a sweet bouquet or a naughty-looking Siamese winking as though it knew a secret). But I never got one. I figured I’d be sorry when I was old and my skin was stretched out and wrinkled. Tattoos seem so much like they’re for the young. The problem is that you can’t grow out of them!
But like I said, I’m old fashion. Nearly everyone I know is inked somewhere.

I think small tatoos are the nicest for girls, especially in places that aren’t immediately visible…and i mean when u have aged to the point that the skin is wrinkled and stretched, u probably wont be showing those areas very much anyway… luv a bit of ink!
i have 7 small ones myself!

Just wanted to say that that’s not Dolce&Gabbana’s Domenico Dolce, its actually STEFANO GABBANA.
