Ode to Betsey
Yesterday I got my 4th tattoo and this one has to be the most bad-a$$ of them all (it’s my first color tattoo).
Before I get into it let me walk you through the history of tattoos …
#1- is on my wrist and by the far the most special of them all — it’s sentimental and all that happy jazz but it also started the chain reaction that happens when you get tattoos … you want more and more!
#2- on hip area. The symbol for Scorpio (little M with the arrow). I am way into astrology and I am a hardcore Scorpio … so watch out bitches.
#3- 5 stars on my stomach. I guess it was still in line with the whole astrology thing plus I wanted something on my stomach to constantly remind me to keep my stomach from turing into a hot mess. No one wants staaaaaars (= stretched out star tattoo).
and now ….
#4- rose on my back. This rose is based off of the roses that Betsey Johnson uses on her prints. You know I am a die hard Betsey girl for life and now its printed on my back! I am going to expand on this tattoo soon by adding a few rose buds trailing down from my shoulder.
So yeah, I am crazy but I freaking love this tattoo! It took about an hour to get done and the guy was great. For any fellow LA girls I got it done (and 3 out of my 4 tattoos) at Studio City Tattoo. Noah did my tattoo — he was great.

Love it! Yeah, I don’t get the phenomenon about getting one tattoo then getting a ton more. I got my second last month, and I’m planning my third! Crazy.
Wow that is really beautiful! You should post photos of the others, show ’em off girl!
They will all strech sag and fade…good luck with that. It is pretty right now tho!!
Wow, thats a really pretty rose! I’ve seriously been thinking about getting a tattoo, but I’ll have to wait 2 more years until I’m 18 or else my parents say they won’t pay for college 😉
You should post pictures of your other ones!
Beutiful art. The color is amazing. You have a wonderful artist!
The colour is awesome! I’m normally not a fan of coloured tatt’s – but that one is great!!!
Very lady like!
Which one hurt the most?!?!
Congrats and keep up the spirit! sooner or later you’ll get tired of’em, I speak from experience 😉
Don’t get angry thinking about that, just take my word for it. Life has its strange ways of twisting things.
