INKEDblog takes you beneath the skin of today's tattoo culture. Our mission is to celebrate tattooing as a modern art form which incorporates art, fashion, style, and pop culture. While paying homage and respect to the past, we look to present a contemporary take on the present and future of skin art.

Every BODY Has A Story - Lady Labobo
"The Little Prince is one of my favourite books and holds so many different meanings for me. Although its a child's story, it has adult themes and - to be honest - it really teaches adults how to be children again... and I think that's an important skill to have.
The second part of the story is that I get tattoos to mark important points in my life. I haven't been too well lately and as a result was made redundant from my place of employment. Instead of getting down, I was really chuffed and wanted to do something to celebrate my freedom from the shithole of doom.
The Little Prince seemed the obvious choice to me as its very much about freedom.
Its slighly "cutesy" for me - I'm more a skull and rotting flesh fan but it was fitting and I love it."

(The Little Prince Tattoo was done by Michael of Bodyline in Glasgow)
