My Tattoos
Wednesday, June 11, 2014Okay this one has been requested as a YouTube video quite a few times over the past year, but I'm so terrible with the editing of video...
Okay this one has been requested as a YouTube video quite a few times over the past year, but I'm so terrible with the editing of videos as I don't have a mac or anything that that always gets pushed to the side. So I decided that this would be the next best thing for those of you who want to be that little more nosy!
I will list them all in order of time so the first will be the first one I got with a little description underneath!
------------------------------------------------
1)
Roman numerals for two dates- one date is the date that my grandad sadly passed away, this man meant a lot to me and taught me a lot when I was young without even realising.
the other date is my brothers birth date- which obviously he is somebody very close in my life.
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
2)
My star sign- Aries. I believe a lot about star signs and what they make people- especially the traits of an Aries- a lot of these are very true when it comes to who I am and what I am like as a person- adventurous, positive, versatile, stubborn & impulsive.
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
3)
So this was my third tattoo- a traditional style rose on my right arm near my wrist, on the top. I had it done in kavos last year a few hours before I was flying home. SPONTANEOUS ABI.
------------------------------------------------
4)
This was my next sitting- a lady with a flower crown and long swooping hair to join onto my rose previously done. (done by the extreeeeemely talented Anthony Cole at Silver Needles in Southend) I wanted some colour in this one but mainly black and grey as I wanted to save the bright colors for my other arm.

------------------------------------------------
5,6,7,8)
Time for the small ones on my hands- I also have the 3 little dots on my right finger too in the same place as seen here on my left. The dots mean absolutely nothing, I just thought they would look pretty cute on the nail bed. The sun is purely because I absolutely hate cold weather, I never leave the house if I don't have to if it's cold, and I plan on living somewhere hot when I'm a bit older. The moon (WAS) because I was always awake at night. My body clock was completely over the place. And the heart I have matching with my mum which is sweet. She's been my rock all my life and I wouldn't change anything about the way she's bought me up.
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
9,10)
The flower was my 9th tattoo, which is on the inside of my left leg. This was a matching tattoo with a friend who sadly I'm no longer friends with, but at the time we had a very good friendship so I don't regret it in the slightest, it now symbolises change for me. The dragonfly was my 10th, I had been meaning to get this done since I worked in Kavos all summer last year (2913) as there were so many dragonflies out there, I just wanted it as a little holiday tattoo.

------------------------------------------------
11(maybe12)
This is probably one of my favourite tattoos.. I had the panda with the bamboo and the yellow flowers done in one sitting (by Anthony Cole as previously mentioned) and I then had the pink and blue flowers added around it in another sitting.. So is that technically 11th&12th tattoos? Who knows! But anyway, I had this panda done because ever since I was little I have absolutely adored them, they are definitely my favourite animals!
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
13) I can't believe I forgot to put this one in the post originally! this is my most painful one I've had done! I try to block it out of my mind hahahaha. I had this done mainly because I'm not very lucky in the chest department and I am fully aware of this as most people seem to think I don't already know and make stupid comments- yes I have heard of a mirror! but yeah- I love this one so so much. I do want to get it shaded but I don't want colour. I just have to pluck up the courage to go and have it done! this was also done by Anthony Cole.

14)
Sooooo.. this has no meaning at all, I just wanted something really bright and jewel like on my leg, the one place I had been wanting tattooed since my very first one so I'm really happy it's finally been done.
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
15)
Finally! My last one which was only done a couple of days ago- a lovely little pug. So so happy with it and I LOVE the mint colour in the background. I had a pug simple because I've wanted one for so many years. I'm not allowed one though due to me living in a flat & my mum having dog allergies (I do too but not so much with short haired dogs, plus it's something I would deal with if it meant having a cute little dog running around the place!)
------------------------------------------------
I hope anyone reading this enjoyed, please feel free to comment below anything & suggestions for new blog posts also! I will be doing a piercing blog post soon too, but not too close to the tattoo one!
