I hope your all having a lovely weekend, I spent today shopping - i've totally fallen in love with Zara. I'll admitt its taken me years to even step inside that shop, but i'm so pleased I did. I have a new favourite. But the main part of the day as been spent daydreaming about more ink.
Tattoos are a part of me that always hides in the back of my mind. I wish i'd of got more done when I was up in Newcastle at university and had a smashing tattooists up there. I don't know why I didn't. Sometimes I just have days dreaming up ideas, patterns, places to get them done. Then I remember I need to save money for moving, and a wedding, and a honeymoon and bus tickets.
The above love bird image is one I found on one of them endless google image searches. I love the tones of the blues and the wispy grey shading which adds to the sense of flight in the design. I've been debating the idea of getting a love bird for a while, going back and forth over the idea of the retro punky vivid colour look.
I think i'll have a pair flying towards each other across the bottom of my back (beware tramp stamp territory) with something linking them between. My backs a work in progress, so are my designs. But the daydreams keep me happy at work and I love being the gal people always think would never have tattoos.
I love surprising people like that.
The classic sparrows are gorgeous. I'm terrified of color myself, but I love how it looks. It stinks you can't get your tattoo soon, but the longer you wait the more sure you'll be at least.
ReplyDeleteI adore looking at tattoos but don't think I could ever get one myself, I am too wimpish and can't decide on one I'd really like!
ReplyDeleteafter getting my third tattoo with loads of colour in I think that's what's swung me away from just black and grey ink.
