We love it at Tattoo Fashion when celebrities get new tattoos, particularly when they hit the headlines.

Peaches Geldof, unruly daughter of Sir Bob, has constantly roused the press with her ample body motifs, and after sunbathing topless on a beach in South America recently, has exposed her full tat portfolio to the world! 

The majority of the 20 designs are references to ex-boyfriends and her new addition, the words ‘Ex Valentine’ – relating to old flame Faris Badwan, front man with The Horrors – just reinforces how careful she should be when selecting both men and tattoos in the future!

But, we think as long as she’s happy and enjoys getting tattoos then good on her!

We love Beck’s tattoos here at Tattoo Fashion and we like to keep tabs on any new additions to his body art. His recent tat, however, hasn’t gone down too well in the Beckham household as he allegedly ignored Posh’s appeal not to have anymore.

As Becks was parading his football skills during a training session for AC Milan in Dubai, he was also parading his new biblical proverb design under his left arm which translates: “My son, do not forget my teaching but keep my commands in your heart”. 

The latest pictures also display a wing-shaped tattoo on the inside of his upper left arm, and this slightly unclear cherub pattern could be mirroring the same design on his right arm.

Either way, we think his new tats look great – even if a certain ex-Spice Girl disagrees….

As expected, this year’s Brighton Tattoo Convention provided everyone with the usual amount of colour and eccentricity and we loved every minute of it! From the bikini-clad Spearmint Rhino girls displaying their tats (no, not those), to the masses who were being inked for everyone to see, the event lived up to its flamboyant reputation!

Even though it was cold outside, the atmosphere inside Brighton race course was red hot. As we strolled in and out of the popular artists area, the intricate buzzing of the tools of their trade resonated around the vast space. This was not a place for the faint-hearted, and in particular, anyone who hates a trip to the dentist!

Check out more of our stunning and crazy photos from the weekend at Flickr and if you didn’t make it this year, then you will certainly be there next! We definitely will…

We have just as much fun and games with our temporary tattoos here in the Tattoo Fashion office as you do, so we thought we’d show you with some pictures.

It’s not just the workplace where our tats end up; it could be a stag or hen do and a fancy dress party; or a wedding and birthday bash. Whichever it may be, we know that our designs are at the centre of mischief and life and sole of any great party!

Here are five of our best pics:
