Cara Delevingne gets initials tattooed on her hand

Share this:

Cara Delevingne has revealed her latest tattoo, just one week after getting her first inking. The model chose her initials as the design for the new body art. The 20-year-old, whose middle name is Jocelyn, had 'CJD' etched onto the side of her right hand in large, calligraphic –like font. Earlier in the day Cara had updated fans with her plans, tweeting: "Tattoo number two is coming sooooooon!!!"

She returned to tattoo artist Bang Bang in New York, who was responsible for giving her her first inking – a lion's head – one week earlier. He was recommended to Cara by her good friend Rihanna, who has her own extensive collection of tattoos. Cara posted a photo that showed off the lion on her index finger. "My first tattoo!!" she tweeted. "Lions rule! Thank you so much @bangbangnyc @badgalriri." Clearly delighted with her first inking, the face of Burberry and YSL beauty shared another image, writing: "I am son happy! Thanks again @bangbangnyc @elemags ! RAWWWW"

Bang Bang is known for getting his celebrity clientele to add an inking to his body and before Cara left the studio, she tattooed her initials inside a heart onto his leg. Rihanna was last seen visiting the salon in February, but it has not yet been revealed if she got another inking. Other famous fans of the New York salon include Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, Nicole Scherzinger and British singer Rita Ora, who is also one of Cara's closest friends. Rita stopped by the studio earlier in May, when she had a swallow tattooed down the back of her neck. Calling the new design her "baby bird" the Radioactive singer happily tweeted snaps throughout the day for her fans.
