"   Confession time: We definitely tuned into the People&amp;#039;s Choice Awards to drool over the fashion. But while we were shamelessly ogling other women, our attention kept being diverted to all the tats on the red carpet. And there were puh-lenty of them. Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Lea Michele, Katie Cassidy, and Ashley Tisdale were just a few of the celebs who donned gorgeous dresses that showed off their ink. They looked fabulous and the whole tattoos-as-accessories thing somehow works at a dressy event when you&amp;#039;re a famous actress or rock star. But, as much as we love tats, we realized that flashing them at a wedding or swanky soiree when you&amp;#039;re a non-celeb doesn&amp;#039;t quite translate\u2014especially if there will be older people at the event who just don&amp;#039;t get the allure of body ink.  Our advice: If you&amp;#039;ve got a wrist tat, cover it with a few form-fitting bracelets when you go out. Got one on your back? Opt for a dress that conceals your art or, if it&amp;#039;s small enough, use a full-coverage concealer (we like Make Up For Ever) and follow it with dusting of loose powder. Ditto for ankle tattoos. Obviously, your ink is a part of you and if you want to show it off, you totally should. But if you want to avoid potential judge-y looks from your guy&amp;#039;s great-aunt at his cousin&amp;#039;s wedding, it might be best to cover up.  Do you cover your tattoo at dressy events?
