There's no denying that girl power is having a long overdue moment. Between many examples of the gender pay gap coming to light, celebrities openly calling themselves feminists, and body positivity taking the place of unachievable #fitnessgoals, in some ways, 2017 has been the year women needed.
And now, there's a permanent way to show your support for girl power, equal rights, and women everywhere.
We're talking about GRL PWR tattoos. Removing the vowels but leaving the meaning, the tiny ink trend is the latest way to celebrate your strength, independence, and power that comes from being a woman.
