ERIN WASSON

“I started getting tattoos when I was 17. I don’t have a grand plan with my tattoos, never. I’m the girl who just thinks up something as I’m walk into a tattoo parlor and I’m getting it an hour later. I believe in ornamentation of the body… I believe if you feel it, you should just do it. Don’t overanalyze anything in life too much—you’ll make yourself crazy. I’m into symbolism; all of my tattoos are very much based on symbolism. And they’re all very sneaky. So, if I’m just standing straight in front of you, you wouldn’t really see them. But, if I was naked and you saw me from behind you would be like, ‘Damn.’ [Laughs] “

CARA DELEVINGNE

The British super is a high-profile tattoo addict, posting each one on her Instagram account as she gets inked. To date, she has racked up a lion’s head on her finger, ‘Don’t worry, be happy’ under her bust, ‘Bacon’ under her foot and several more.
