Last year Elizabeth got in touch to discuss a collaboration for her husband, Marco. As an anniversary gift, she gave him a tattoo by the incomparable Amanda Wachob (please check out her work here and a profile over at Design*Sponge here.) Marco chose the Latin phrase "Ut Amen Et Foveam" which means "So that I love and cherish." Elizabeth writes: "It's a memorial to our sweet little chihuahua Cosmo who tragically passed away last March at only 7 years old." (Shrine to Cosmo on the left.) Amanda weilds a tattoo needle like a paintbrush and I love her interpretation of my calligraphy: fluid and, in Elizabeth's words "masculine, charming and romantic." Thanks so much to Elizabeth, Marco, Amanda, Loris and the late and beloved Cosmo.
