15 Tattoos That Are Way More Than Just a Pretty Design

Body art is beautiful to look at, yet sometimes it can be more than just a wonderful design. Some people get inked as a way to exteriorize their feelings, express a hidden secret or pay tribute to a loved one. After all, there is no better way to show that we love someone or deeply miss them than to have their memory with us wherever we go, forever.
