They say, "Birds of a feather flock together." Your girl crew is just like a flock of birds. You don't go anywhere without one another, and that's why you're spending spring break together basking in the sunshine. Get this cute design of birds flying in a group as a reminder that your crew is always close behind.

03The Word Of The Week

Spring break is all about getting away from your busy schedule, and having absolutely no priorities. Tattoo that freedom on your fingers with a script design just like this one. If you have other words that represent your week, or maybe your crew has a nickname, switch it out for that word. It's all about the placement, and the finger is a great spot to get a joint tat.

04Pizza Is The Real MVP

If your friends joke more than anything, get a silly tattoo together like this infinity sign made out of pizza. It's true that pizza is the real MVP, and just like pizza, your friendship is pretty awesome as well.

If I had this tat, I would want to eat a slice of pizza every time I saw it. Although, I already crave pizza constantly, so what's new?

05Getting Nauti

This anchor tat is a cute idea if your friends are going on a cruise this spring break. An anchor is also symbolic of how your friends will always keep you grounded when the stormy days come, so it works in a lot of ways. Plus, it's cute and tiny enough that it'll look great just about anywhere you decide to get it.

06A Whole New World

If your spring break plans are taking you and your friends to new places, document it all with a tiny globe tat. The world is yours for the taking, and it can literally be yours when you ink it on your body. A map of the world can even be a reminder to your squad of all places you'll go together.

07You're A Star... Fish

Stars are always a great idea for a shared tattoo, but make it relate to your beach vacay by getting a starfish. Everyone else will be star-fishing they were in your crew. Get it? Also, these starfish tats are great for instantly reminding you of swimming in the ocean with your favorite people.

08A Tree-Mendous Tattoo

When you think of a tropical vacay, one of the first things you envision are the palm trees swaying in the breeze. A palm tree tattoo is an easy way to take you back to your happy place. When you and your friends are back in school, you will look down at your trees and be transported to a time when you were laying in a hammock in the shade.

09You Are My Sunshine

A sun represents your time outside with your friends, and how they all brighten up your world. This is the perfect tat if you are truly looking for something itty bitty. But, you can always get a sun that is a little bigger and more detailed if you want to go that route.

10A Cute Little Elephant
