Freja Beha Erichsen

Seriously loving this girl at the moment. Freja is Danish, and she was the face of Chanel for several seasons before Blake Lively took over. I think she has the most beautiful face, but she's also really edgy... a lot of people see her as the postergirl for the androgynous look. I love her haircut too! I'd like to get my hair cut like this, but since my hair is quite wavy, it would probably just stick straight out from my head.

I really like the way Freja dresses as well. At the moment I'm really into tailored pants and blazers, and this is exactly the kind of outfit I'd like to be wearing during winter. My mum just gave me a houndstooth blazer that she bought during the 80s, and I can't wait to start wearing it! Unfortunately, it smells a bit musty from hanging in the closet for about twenty years, so I have to get it drycleaned first.

Aww. She looks so cute when she smiles!


My favourite thing about Freja is how versatile she is; like I mentioned earlier, she works the androgynous look perfectly, but she can also look really fresh and feminine, or glamorous and sexy. I think that's exactly what a good model should be able to do.

I'll definitely keep posting stuff about more of my favourite models... I have dozens of them! I think I might post something about Karlie Kloss next.
