Tattoo Rule No. 2: Make Sure Your Tattoo Looks Good in Clothes Like a piece of jewelry you can't take off, a tattoo should coordinate well with your wardrobe.
"Colorful tattoos really pop off the skin, but be conscious that the tattoo will become part of your everyday look," says Inked Magazine Editor-in-Chief, Rocky Rakovic. "You would never wear a red top and a green skirt at the same time, so if you get a red tattoo you might have to kick green clothes out of your closet." He says that most women who get colorful tattoos end up wearing a lot of black. "I'm not sure if it's an intended choice or something they're forced into after the tattoo session," he says.
Mayorga adds that it's also important to be mindful of how ankle and foot tattoos look in different shoe styles. "Check the placement of the tattoo in both heels and flats beforehand to see how it will lay on the skin," she advises.
