Attention trend spotters! The latest beauty must-have that we'll all soon be sporting is the transfer tattoo, as seen on the Chanel Spring/Summer 2010 catwalk.
With stylish stars such as Rihanna, Victoria Beckham and Angelina Jolie already covered in body art, we're much preferring this new, more temporary take on the trend.

In the most recent Paris show, Karl Lagerfeld sent his models down the Chanel runway showcasing delicate tattoo transfers.
Floral, beading and bangle patterns, all featuring the brand's distinctive logo, were seen snaking their way up the models' arms and legs - with similar body art also seen in the Jean Paul Gaultier and Rodarte shows.
But now you can buy in on the transfer trend too, as the Chanel tattoos will be available to buy at Selfridges from March 1st.
