Though this might not seem like a big deal to those who don’t have tattoos, my fellow tattooed girls know it can prove to be a hassle! 

With my tattoos (which are colorful), here’s what I would wear:

How to Style Tattoos: Simple & Girly Outfit

Dress- Forever 21, Cardigan – HM, Shoes – Charlotte Russe, Earrings – Saks off 5th, Bracelet – Betsey Johnson

With a cute, neutral outfit that’s perfect for the transitional period from summer to autumn, tattoos can truly shine! Depending on how neutral you may want to go, colored tattoos really standout and make a statement!

How to Style Tattoos: Comfortable, Sporty Outfit

Top – Forever 21, Skirt – Amazon, Sneakers – Amazon, Earrings – Billy the tree

This comfortable, casual outfit truly allows colored and black-and-grey tattoos to truly shine. Either vibrant or dark tattoos add extra interest to this basic outfit to make for a cute look.

How NOT to Style Tattoos: Over-the-Top Patterns:

Dress – Boohoo, Shoes – Charlotte Russe, Earrings – Gamiss, Clutch – Nordstrom Rack

With such a bold print, this dress is an awesome statement piece. However, since I have a few colorful tattoos, I find that colorful, patterned dresses like this don’t work for me — my tattoos are overpowered and the whole look seems cluttered.

Think about looking at someone wearing this dress, with a few bold tattoos: Would you focus on the dress first, or the visible tattoos? It’s this kind of problem that makes dressing a print with tattoos difficult. 

Now, bold prints can be worn, of course! I’m not here to tell you that you can’t express your style however you like. I just personally don’t like the look on me. If you love to pair prints with your tattoos… go for it!
