I had a day off today and I snuggled up with the family, and by family I mean my dog and my kittens.
It is bloody cold in my house. I have no heating in the bedroom or in my living room so a t shirt, jersey top and fleece it is to keep me warm. Sigh. The snow keeps building up and I'm not sure how I even get to work! Putting my life in danger really.
Anyways, here's a Christmas wish list made up of clothes and shoes-
Hopefully my fiance will be reading this and will get some ideas:)

New obsession- Sunday Girl
I saw these guys support Ellie Goulding recently and they are amazing. Lead singer Jade is gorgeous and so nice. Much much better than Ellie.

Getting to know you...
I've seen a few of these on other people's blogs and I thought I may as well do one too. I've made my blog quite personal, which I didn't plan on doing, so you probably know stuff about me already but here's a bit more...

- I am obsessed with music. I always have to have music on whatever I'm doing. I love everything from Dolly Parton to Bullet For My Valentine. Whatever your mood, there is always a song to suit it.
- I have a massive scar on my head I got from being hit by a car, that is cleverly hidden by a side parting.
- I have had an eating disorder since I was 16. I am slightly better now but it is something that never goes away.
- I love celebrity culture. I have a subscription to Heat, Elle, Look and InStyle because I love celebs and fashion. I wanted to be famous ever since I was a child.
- I have no brothers or sisters.
- I have 1 dog called Fleur, 2 cats called Pickles and Milk and 2 hamsters called Mims and Fizzgig.
- I am OBSESSED with 1980s fantasy movies like Labyrinth, Willow and Legend.
- I have a fear of the dark and stickers.
- I don't clean the house. Ever.
- I used to be a groupie. I am not ashamed.

I have a new job doing what I love. FASHION!
So a bit of good news came my way the other day. I got a job styling, visual merchandising and selling at LK Bennett! Now I know most of you are probably thinking "I've never heard of it" or "aren't they an old lady shop?". I have to tell you that actually they are awesome!
They have beautiful and well made dresses, gorgeous hand bags and amazing shoes. Here's just a few things I like-
Aren't these things gorgeous? So pretty. Especially The Anna Bag. It's very Mulberry esque.
Next time you're near an LK Bennett, don't just think it's a mumsy shop. It is perfect for budding fashionistas of any age! We also take amazing care of our customers so if you ever wanted that one-on-one you wouldn't get from other shops, we offer it.
Always take a 2nd look at LK Bennett. You may well be surprised.

The kind-hearted blogger campaign
I think this is an awesome idea. Jo over at em jay & me came up with this and I think it's wonderful. Here is what the kind-hearted blogger pledge is:
Love Freya

- create, inspire, and admire rather than compete with fellow bloggers
- be understanding of each other-- in the blogging community, as well as in the world
- stay away from internet/blogging bullying
- speak my opinion freely, while still being mindful of other's feelings-- be tactful.
- make an effort--no matter how big or small the gesture, to spread kindness or joy to others
- acknowledge that I will make mistakes, (I am only human) but remember to learn from them
- know that at times I will post about the negative stuff in life, and maybe even some complaining (I am only human) but I will always follow up with something happy/positive too.
- believe that this world is a good place, filled with good people.

Just thought I would share with you lovely lot my new set list for my gigs. I sometimes sing with my friend's band but sometimes they play for me when I've been specifically asked to sing.

Let me know what you think of the new set list<3

Is Crystal Renn "plus size" anymore?
Crystal Renn is an idol. She is beautiful, clever and a model at the top of her game, being used in Chanel shows and modeling in magazines like Harpers Bazaar and Elle.
Most of her charm comes from being a "plus size" model. Everyone loves her which is good for "average" sized ladies who look at catwalks and all they see is androgyny, no hips or tits.
Her book "Hungry" is one of my favourites. It shows her strength of character and her inner beauty at being able to overcome an eating disorder and become one of the world's highest paid, and most popular, models.
However, recent pictures would suggest that Crystal is losing her infamous curves. Word from her agent is that she isn't “trying to lose weight” and had simply “firmed up” after hiking in Patagonia. She also discusses her weight loss on the Today show here. She says she has started a new exercise regime and diet but she is still a "solid" size 10 (that's my size) and doesn't plan on losing anymore weight. I should hope not because I love her the way she is!
What do you guys think? Have you lost any respect for her?

I wish I was around when he was alive and at the top of his game. I so would have been his groupie. One of my other idols, Pamela Des Barres, slept with him. Lucky lady.

Evan Rachel Wood
I've never been a big fan ERW. I haven't seen many of her films and all I really knew about her was that she went out with Jamie Bell and broke up Marilyn Manson and Dita Von Teese's marriage. Because of this, I was not the biggest fan because I worship Dita.
Recently however, she was on the cover of Nylon and I thought she looked amazing. She had gorgeous red hair, red lips, the whole shebang! I then googled her and was impressed by what I saw. She seems just like a mini Dita (oh the irony) but she pulls it off enough to look like herself.
I'm still not her biggest fan but I think I will give her more than a brief glance from now on.
