As much as we’d like to make summer last forever, it’s literally impossible — so we have to get creative. While some people may print out photos of their beach getaways to look at on days when it barely hits 60 degrees, we have another idea: Get a palm tree tattoo.
While there’s no shortage of summer-friendly tattoos out there (think: wave and beach tattoos), it’s the simple design of the perennial plant that we’re loving lately.
