Haute couture for your wedding? Yes, please. Little did you know it could come in the form of a tattoo.

Black Lace Skin Jewelry makes hypo-allergenic, adhesive tattoos that offer brides a bit of bling to complement their wedding-day fashions.

Boston-based designers Mary Anne Richman and Bonny Katzman’s bold textures and striking designs take medieval design elements (hello, Game of Thrones) and add a modern twist. The result: elegant temporary designs you can put anywhere for an unexpected look.

There’s just the right amount of glitter, satin, and Swarovski crystal in each tattoo. Worn alone, this skin jewelry is sophisticated and eye-catching. Couple it with your real bridal jewelry, and you get an extra pop of layered drama. Among their designs, you’ll find passionate hearts, swirling scrolls, and gorgeous roses. These tattoos are available in bridal white, bridal champagne, or even black glitter (calling all you goth brides).

They’re easy to apply: just position and press on. They’re waterproof and last for three days, but if you plan on hitting the honeymoon beach the day after your wedding, avoid any body lotions or suntan oil. When you’re done, peel off and toss. How’s that for cheap chic?

Black Lace Skin Jewelry temporary tattoos are available for $12-$26.
