Rib Cage Standout
Rib cage tattoos look awesome when being shown off in an outfit with just the right amount of skin exposed. While the side of the ribs is where we most often see them, we're totally obsessing over this front and center approach.

Off-Centered
The most amount of surface area you'll have to work with is your back. Rather than aligning things perfectly, try an off-center look for a laid-back vibe. No matter what design you're introducing to your body, this relaxed approach is definitely unexpected in the best of ways.

Ear Statement
Ears aren't only for jewelry and this intricate example proves just that. A fine line tattoo will fit perfectly into this small nook for an eye-catching upgrade that can be either shown off or hidden behind a few strands of hair.

Feminine Funny Bone
The arm may seem like an obvious choice when it comes to introducing some ink, but you can make your own addition feel totally fresh and unique. The few inches directly above your elbow is the ideal spot to put a swoon-worthy design, like these colorful flowers.

Not Quite the Side
Can't name the spot on your body where you're contemplating getting a tattoo? That's a good sign if you're searching for a unique way to sport something special. Technically still on the back, but pretty close to being your side, is an underutilized area of the body for a few thoughtful words.
