Rihanna designs tattoos

Los Angeles: Pop srae Rihanna has teamed up with jewellery designer Jacquie Aiche to create a range of temporary inkings for Flash Tattoos.

The "Diamonds" hitmaker will create a line of edgy temporary tattoos in silver and gold hues which are described as perfect for wearing to the beach or to a music festival this summer, reported People magazine.

"Creating the tattoos was a really collaborative process between Rihanna and myself, which we feel is so evident in the final designs," Aiche said.

The 27-year-old beauty - who has an extensive collection of body art herself including a henna-style hand tattoo and an Egyptian goddess on her chest - worked with Aiche on a seven-sheet set which features cuticle and knuckle wraps, a DIY chain set and nameplates, arm bands, chains and gothic letter tattoos.

"There are gothic tattoos, but then we mixed in lots of daintier pieces for layering that are reminiscent of the way we stack our jewellery. The process was so much fun we decided to make another round, as well. Something a little softer and sexier with some unexpected inspiration," Aiche added.
