Whoooaaa Black Betty

I've had it.

 

I want to be a pin-up model...like now.

 

Right now.

I'm so in love with the whole idea of a classic look. Nothing is sexier than va-va-voom red lips, lashes for days, and tattoos galore on the girliest of girls. I love the rockabilly look. It's Marilyn meets Sailor Jerry. The twist of cherries and skulls, peep-toes and victory curls tied with bandanas. Love.

 

Wore this outfit to school and got lots of
compliments!

 

 

I think this one is one of my faves :)

It's safe to say that I am completely and utterly OBSESSED with this era and all the amazing fashion that comes with it. Know any aspiring photographers?! Well here is an aspiring model for you :)

Sailors Beware!

"My skin is a canvas. The artwork on it represents something that is very powerful and meaningful in my life. I look at my skin as something of a living diary because all my tattoos represent a time in my life and I never wish to shut the door on the past, so I carry it all with me." - Dave Navarro

Chowdah Bowl finished tattoo #11 today & I couldn't be more stoked! He did an AMAZING job on my scaled beauty! Isn't the color & the shading gorgeous?! I definitely recommend him to anyone looking to have some art work done. He's pretty rad.

Mama, she's for you :)

My new leading lady

Today I got tattoo numero 11 at Above All Tattoo.

Artist: Chowdah Bowl

Chowdah Bowl is doing a great job so far. I can't wait to finish her up with color and detail! I named her Linda, after my mama. Isn't she a beauty?! It's just the outline and borderline awesome but I'm pretty excited about it.

I'm thinking long flirty lashes, bright red or hot pink lips, purple or pink shells, of course the tail scales will come after the green shading along with the gold and overall shading. She's only about 20% complete...but I love her already :)

What are your thoughts on color and detail? I think she'll get finished in two weeks.
