I know. I should get over my fear and just do it. My husband and I are both very heavily tattooed and tend to get crazy looks in high end stores but I have had great experiences in some. An associate our new Rolex store almost seemed relieved to see someone he could identify with. Apparently he had artwork hidden under his suit. ;-) Sorry, I’m totally getting off topic. Thanks for the warm welcome, everyone!

My husband and I are both heavily tattooed as well and the SAs in our local H boutiques have never batted an eyelash, but I know what you mean in that I've had some strange looks in high-end stores and restaurants.

One time, I was in Saks shoe department in the summer so my leg tattoos (fully sleeved? pantsed? haha) were showing. An older woman, dressed fairly conservatively, beelined it toward me, staring at my legs, with a serious look on her face, so I thought I was in for one of those "why would you do that to yourself?" lectures. Instead she looked me in the eye and said "your tattoos are BEAUTIFUL!", gave me a big grin, and hurried on her way. You could have knocked me over with a feather.

You never know and you might be pleasantly surprised!

Tattoos are a form of self expression
Beautiful is right
Keep expressing!

I’ve been lurking around this forum for a long time but decided it was time to join since I finally have something to post! It pales in comparison to all of the incredible goodies everyone else has but I was still excited to get my first pair of Collections Imperiales Twillies in orange/fuchsia/black for my birthday last month. I was too shy to go into the store so I ordered the from the Hermes website.

Congrats LittleMsM, these twillies are so beautiful, I love the pattern and details. They are also very versatile, have a geometrical pattern and on the other side the floral design with a cute horse. Thank you for sharing [emoji1]

I love this story because I can relate to the woman ... I don't have any tattoos, but I love looking at them on others. Like with any kind of artwork, there is so much variety and some of it is truly beautiful.

Maybe you guys should start an "H and Tattoos" thread -- I couldn't contribute but would love to see and admire! :smile1:

Surfing online shopping during the Thanksgiving weekend and saw this funny scarf for sale. I took a chance on buying it. It arrived this evening.

I just love it! It is crazy and casual and fun. I pair it here with my little yellow LV handbag.
