Cara Delevingne and Paris Jackson Low-Key Got Matching Tattoos

Tattoo artists are in high demand these days. More and more people are choosing to get a design, someone’s name, or even something totally random that really means nothing to them emblazoned on their body with ink. And it should come as no surprise that celebrity tattoos are a big business and even inspire others to get some ink of their own.

When a star gets a new tattoo, the Internet goes wild. Take for instance when Cara Delevingne got her first—a lion on her finger—we all wanted to know where she did it. We quickly found out that it was done by Bang Bang, the famed New York-based artist responsible for many of the diverse pieces of body art found on Rihanna and Justin Bieber—two serious tattoo aficionados.

Many unlikely celebs choose to get tagged as well—in fact, you may be surprised to learn a few of the stars who have strategically hidden ink. But lately, celebs are just revealing the ink themselves, showing off their backs, hips and ribcages and tagging the now-famous artists. Let these celebrity tattoos inspire your next ink.

Chrissy Teigen

Most, if not all, of Teigen’s tattoos have an emotional meaning and this new one is no different. Artist Winter Stone inked the title of John Legend’s new song, “Ooh Laa,” down Teigen’s spine. The couple joked they played it in the bedroom on repeat.

Are You Practically Perfect in Every Way?

Senior Woman

I am not perfect, and that is perfectly okay.

My mother often jokes about being like Mary Poppins, “practically perfect in every way.” She might be (love you, Mom). I, however, am not.

Unfortunately, I find myself beating my head against the wall of perfection time after time. I run a business, manage the household, take care of the pets, manage relationships with family members, and plan for the future. As women, we often put a lot of pressure on ourselves to be that perfect wife, perfect mother, perfect employee. And what results is not a feeling of accomplishment, but often a sense of failure because we aren’t perfect.

One definition of perfect in the American Heritage Dictionary is “Being without defect or blemish: a perfect specimen.” Well, guess what, world? I am not perfect.

We Are All a Work in Progress

Goodness knows that I am lacking in many things and please don’t count my blemishes! We are all a work in progress. A beautiful mess of inconsistencies, baggage and imperfections. And guess what? That is perfectly okay!

In my struggles to be a better person, I have worked with my own coach. One thing that was incredibly powerful for me was being asked if I expected the same levels of perfection from others in my life. When I really examined it, I realized that I absolutely do not. The things that make us imperfect are often what make us interesting or loveable. How boring life would be if we were all perfect. And how irritating would we be to others!

I simply expect those that I love to be real, authentic, honest and ultimately human. I admire those who are flawed with a beautiful grace and a constant desire to improve. Why are we so hard on ourselves?

Start Noticing Your Strengths

There is a new movement to stop focusing on our weaknesses and start noticing our strengths. I recently heard someone say that we should strengthen our strengths and delegate the things that we are weak in. We all have weaknesses that we can improve on, but what if you really looked at the things that you are strong in, work on making those stronger, and ask for help in your weak areas?

Can you imagine the burden that would be lifted if you could let go of that constant sense of beating yourself up? The world will do that for you: You don’t need to add to the cause.

As you go into your day, take a moment to really think about what you are good at and embrace it. Then take a moment to glance at your imperfections and love them and yourself the way you love the imperfections in your child, your spouse or your best friend.

What are your strengths and weaknesses? What imperfections do you celebrate in yourself? Where do you see a strength you can strengthen? A weakness you can delegate? Please join the conversation.

Sun Bum & Daniella Perkins Just Made Plopping Your Curls So Much Easier

Plopping has been around forever but the curly hair hack has become even more popular as of late thanks to TikTok. Even those with only slight waves are plopping their hair to achieve their best, frizz-free curls. Since plopping involves using a T-shirt in place of a towel and you might not have one around you want to get dirty, Sun Bum created a T-shirt Hair Towel in collaboration with Daniella Perkins. This is the tee you’ll always use and have around.

There are a lot of ways you could be familiar with actress Daniella Perkins. The 20 year old starred in the Nickelodeon series Knight Squad, as well as guest spots in Girl Meets World and Legendary Dudas. And if you haven’t seen any of those shows, there’s a good chance she’s popped up on your TikTok For You Page considering she has a whopping 2.3 million followers. Here she shows off her cute style, beauty faves and curl routine. She’s the perfect partner for Sun Bum’s curl collection.

Though, it hasn’t always been easy breesy. “My curl journey has been a long one and I’m still on it! You’re always learning with curly hair,” Perkins tells STYLECASTER. “It went from healthy to damaged to a little bit healthy back to damaged and now it’s on its road to recovery for the past two years.” She admits that she hasn’t always loved her natural texture.

“I didn’t always love my curls. I wanted to be one of those girls with pretty wavy hair that you can put up in a ponytail and take out whenever you want…brush it whenever you want to,” she says. “When I was about 14, I would literally go in the shower [and] spend two hours curling my hair with my finger, and as soon as I got out of the shower would take a straightener and put it to my wet hair so I could get that ‘wavy look.’ It never worked.”

She admits it’s all a bit of a bummer. “An ex of mine would always say ‘Oh, I wish you had straight hair so I can run my fingers through your hair,’ or people always want to touch it and act like it’s some crazy thing to have,” she says. “But I realize my curls are beautiful and I shouldn’t try to change my hair texture for anyone. It’s hard finding your perfect hair routine, but once you do, loving your curls becomes a little easier. I never want any little girl to feel like her hair isn’t beautiful. Because it is beautiful.”

Perkins says one of the reasons she had trouble embracing her hair was because of the lack of representation in media. “I never saw anyone whose skin color or hair looked like me on TV,” she says. “When I was 10, I wanted to be Hannah Montana so badly. I went to the Disney store and my aunt bought me a blonde wig. I lived in that wig. I wanted to have straight blonde hair for so long.” Luckily, there are a few things that can help you love your curls. One is really nailing that routine.

“It takes a minute but once you understand your curls, you can become a master at it,” she says. “To help with frizz, I have been loving the Sun Bum T-shirt Hair Towel for drying. To get the bounce once my hair is dry enough for me, I flip my head over and I take a toothpick comb and just go to the places where my hair kind of sinks down a little bit.”

This “towel” is actually a cute T-shirt you can wear and then use to wrap your hair sans frizz. It’s all part of the curly girl routine. The super-soft, absorbent cotton will cut down drying time and keep hair smooth.

Meeting Zendaya helped Perkins be more confident and even inspired her future roles. “The first thing [Zendaya] told me was, ‘Don’t ever let them touch your hair. Protect your curls,’” she says. “That stuck with me. That’s why when I booked Knight Squad my curly hair was a big part of that character.” She’s gotten incredible feedback from young fans and their mothers about her character’s natural hair.

“I actually had the most touching experience at a Nickelodeon meet greet,” she says. “This little girl saw me and started crying her heart out. She told me she was so happy that she saw someone who looked like her on Nickelodeon. That shows you the lack of representation. I’m so glad things are changing. We’re definitely nowhere near where we should be, but we’re getting there.”
