Have you featured me/Sometimes Sweet?

Hi all!

I am revamping a few of my pages, and I'd love to include a "featured" tab, that will link to any and all posts that have mentioned OR featured Sometimes Sweet! So, if you've ever had me guest post, interviewed me, featured or mentioned this blog, or anything of the sort, leave me a link below so I can get them all organized on a new page, so people can head over to your blog and check it out!

Thank you so much in advance!

Home at Last

Well I'm back, and boy is it good to be home. Despite the fact that I now feel like I've got a cold coming on, I had a great trip; I met many wonderful bloggers in New York and spent lots of time with my dear Sal, I saw both my friend Lisa and my sister Jessie get married, and I visited with family and friends. I also spent a great deal of time being cold and having dry skin. Again, being back in San Francisco feels great.

I'll try to put together a recap of my trip later this week or next, but first I need to get caught up on some of my pre-vacation outfits, of which this is one. In the meantime, check out these posts, which detail some of what I was up to:

• Sal's New York recap

• Sal's Eileen Fisher fall preview

• K-Line's New York recaps here and here (you should also check out the beautiful cape she bought while we were all shopping at Barney's together)
• A variation of what Sara wore for our shopping extravaganza
• Wendy B's Fashion Week recap -- including a great shot of several of us doing the Wendy B signature pose
• Cameron's recap of our blogger meet-up at the Empire Hotel (in which she mercifully does not mention how drunk I got)
• Rad's description of our Brooklyn meet-up (in which she mercifully does not mention how hungover I was)

I think that about covers them all. Also, be sure to stop by at Inside Out Style and take a look at the Stylish Thoughts guest post I did. Thanks to Imogen for including me!

Tattoo Tuesday V.59

Name/blog name: Erin, http://erinnnnnnnnnn.tumblr.com/

Age: 21

Occupation: Admin assistant/ a graphic designer’s assistant

Age of first tattoo: 18

Favorite tattoo: The top half of my arm which are roses. It was my first big piece so finding someone who could convey exactly what i wanted was something i was looking for in an artist, and i found her! She did a wonderful job and continues to do great work on me.

Featured tattoo/location: Right thigh, Pin up girl who i call "lady luck".

Artist/shop/location of featured tattoo: Tiffany Thornton at Planet Ink in Ottawa, Ontario Canada.

1) Tell us about your featured tattoo- is there a background story or special meaning? Why did you choose this particular piece of art?

Lady luck doesn't have a whole lot of meaning but I've always wanted a pin up girl, and I've always been told that "you've got luck on your side" so that's what made me think of the idea. I just went to Tiffany and said "Hey, here are a few ideas... run with it, do whatever you want". I let my artist do her thing, and I trust her with anything.

2) Do you have any other tattoos?

I do! I have:
pocket watch(right arm)
snake(right arm)
Dita von teese portrait( left thigh)
Anchor (right foot)
heart locket (right foot)
Dilligaf on the left side of my ribs
"Bring me your love" (inner left arm)
"Finish Strong" on the back of my neck

 

 

3) Do you plan on getting more? 

Absolutely! I have an idea already in the works!

4) How do your family and friends feel about your tattoo(s)? Have you run into any adversity or negativity because of them?

When I first started getting tattooed, I think what my family was worried about was that I may end up with bad work, but now they see the work being produced and are okay with my choices. I work in a pretty easy going environment and before my job now I worked in a kid's section of a book store, and they allowed me to wear short sleeves. So I've been pretty lucky with being able to be myself without having to cover anything up. Although, depending on where i go in town, i do get a bit of negativity, but mostly people are just interested and will ask questions.

5) Any advice for those interested in getting tattooed but haven't gotten one yet?

I say go for it and I'm not being biased either. You only live once, so if you want something, do your research and find an artist that fits for what you want.
