Nothing’s cooler than awesome body jewelry, except maybe awesome tattoo art inspired body jewelry.  One of the biggest trends in contemporary tattoo culture is the use of Chinese and Japanese symbols, a written language known as “kanji.”  Kanji is the full multi-stroke expression of Chinese words and is often used in spiritual sutras, poetry, watercolor art, and more.  Tattoos featuring these symbols, whether solitary or couple with expressive imagery, are popular in both the east and the west.  And we all know what goes well with amazing summer ink and bikini weather: belly rings.  Go for some glitz with inscribed Austrian crystal, or keep it simple and classic with black horn.  It’s all a matter of personal style.
