Would you temporary tattoo?

June 4, 2014

Would you rock a temporary tattoo? Here is a roundup of great ones that can be found on Etsy. Maybe I’ll get an ampersand, this week.

I was searching Etsy for fox temporary tattoos, as you do, and I stumbled across the world of adult temporary tattoos. Not 'adult' as in rude (so anyone who googled that, soooorry, this blog is probably not for you, but please feel free to hang around) adult as in for, well me.

Maybe I'm lame but I kinda want to buy some. Is that weird? I actually love tattoos, I always have. And despite being in a whole lot of situations where I could have easily have gotten one I never did. It's just that I change my style really quickly and I tend to shudder at things I used to wear, and don't even get me started on my inability to commit to fonts. 

Right now I love the simplistic, black and white style and while I will probably never get a real tattoo (I can't be trusted to choose one I will like forever) I think I would wear one of these. Is that weird? Would you rock a temp?

Are you on instagram?

    Yes, in a heartbeat! Except, just like you, I couldn’t choose. That’s exactly the reason why I haven’t committed to one either.
    Go for it, and don’t forget to share 🙂

    I’ve had a few years ago in my single days and they were henna ones and were fab. I also have a real one, but no one sees it except me!

    Yes, but beware of Henna. My friend’s after school child carer – did a temporary tattoo on her 9yr old daughter.
    It took ages to dry and the child forgot – she accidentally smeared it all over the beige carpet.

    I have thought about a temp lots of times. I should just go for it, probably in an inconspicuous spot 🙂

    I think I will, no doubt it will be on instagram, but only because you encouraged me to share, hehehe.

    Well the fox actually started me on this trail because I was looking for something for the party bags (fox party in the planning right now) and it is really bloody cute.

    I had a beautiful henna tattoo done in Morocco, it was gorgeous. And now I am insanely curious where your tattoo is.

    I have many permanent tattoos! They are a small part of who I am and tell a story of a part of my life and I love them 🙂
