Getting a tattoo is certainly a big decision. It can be stressful deciding what type of tattoo to get on your body. Luckily, we’ve compiled a list of 8 of the most popular tattoos for 2014 – everything from simple stars to extravagant wings, lovely texts to beautiful florals.
#1 Tribal
Ok, we all know how ridiculously popular the tribal style is (shorts, skirts, dresses – the list goes on and on). But the tribal style doesn’t stop at clothing – it’s also one of the most popular tattoo ideas for 2014.
There are so many different tribal tattoos to choose from, from tiny little designs on your fingers to full back tribal masterpieces that are nothing short of magnificent. We love this trendy tribal tattoo placed perfectly on the foot – awesome inspiration if you want something new and exciting! (And, take note that she also has a feather tattoo on the other foot. Talk about a trendy combination knockout!)
#2 Stars
We’ve probably all seen our fair share of star tattoos at one point or another, whether it was a series of stars on the hip bone leading up to the ribcage or a small star on the inside of a finger. Stars are totally trendy and cool and we’ve seen them everywhere, from celebrity Gisele Bündchen’s tiny wrist star to singing sensation Rihanna’s string of stars across her back.
#3 Wings
There’s a little angel hidden inside of all of us – whether it’s a sweet heavenly angel on our right shoulders or a fallen angel that lives in the darkness. I guess that’s why wing tattoos are so incredibly popular.
We’re especially fond of girls who have the courage to get turn their entire backs into vibrant, detailed wings we could stare at for hours (and which also look like they could take flight any minute).
But we also love the simple wings on the wrist, ankles, or side of the stomach. It’s a matter of choice, really. Will you opt for gorgeous celtic inspired wings, or go for a basic black wing on the wrist?
#4 Dreamcatchers
Dreamcatchers: One of THE most popular tattoo ideas for 2014. Without a doubt. Ever since celebrity Miley Cyrus stepped on the scene with her lovely dreamcatcher tat, we can’t help but want to follow in her footsteps and get one of our own.
Not to mention they fend off bad dreams that try to creep up on us in the night. All in all, dreamcatcher tattoos are beautiful pieces of art that can be placed anywhere on the body.
#5 Feathers
As women, we strive on wanting to be as sweet as sugar, as pretty as a princess, and as light as a feather. That being said, there’s really no question why these lovely little tattoos have taken the world by storm.
Women everywhere consider this to be one of the best tattoo ideas as feathers are rather simple yet express plenty of feminine elegance. We love this feather tattoo placed on the back of the neck. It’s subtle, yet beautiful in every way.
#6 Fingers
No, we aren’t talking about getting a tattoo of a finger somewhere on your body. We’re talking about the tiny little marks everyone seems to be adding to their fingertips. Some of our favorites include small hearts, little feathers, stars, arrows, and short words such as love.
#7 Text Tattoos
We all have a message that is meaningful to us. It could be lyrics from a song, something our grandmothers told us before they passed away, or just something that is extra special in our lives – so special that we want it marked on our bodies until the end of time. There’s literally an endless amount of text tattoos to choose from.
Make up your own, or choose from thousands – millions – of different options. Then choose the type of font you like, one of the most popular text tattoo ideas being cursive writing. You could even find some celebrity text tattoos to inspire you including those of Angelina Jolie, Megan Fox, and Lindsay Lohan!
#8 Florals
Just like floral patterns are a hot trend for clothing, they’re one of the top tattoo trends for 2014, too. These floral prints are simply stunning on the female body – so soft, so sensual, so magnificently beautiful.
You really can’t go wrong, whether you choose a delicate rose on your wrist to a beautiful array of vibrant flowers going across your stomach.
We are head over heels for this glorious floral tattoo wrapped around an anchor – which, by the way, just so happens to be another one of this year’s top tattoo ideas.
These are the most popular tattoos of 2014. Which one is your favorite? What are you planning on getting?
