I don't normally like lots of tattoos on girls, but I think Freja Beha Erichsen's are very beautiful. They really suit her and are quite discreetly done.
No one is exactly sure how many tattoos Danish model Freja has, but it could be up to sixteen. Known for her cool and edgy style Freja is currently ranked the number two model in the world. I think the tattoos look fantastic on her and add to her beauty.

Freya has 'float' written on her neck
An upside down triangle on the back of her neck
Which she later had coloured in and a dotted circle behind her ear
Freja has 'Serendipity Is Life' on her upper right arm. There is some confusion as to whether this reads 'Serendipity is Me' on internet forums
And a revolver on the inside of her right upper arm
'This too shall pass' on her inside right upper arm
The word 'redemption' on her inner right elbow
Three coloured in circles on her inner right wrist
'This world tonight is mine' on her left wrist
With Carmen Kass and Irina Lazareanu (background)
A star on her upper left side
The letter 'M' on her right side
Later replaced with a lightning bolt
Freja is openly gay and has been linked with Romanian born Canadian model Irina Lazareanu
And Australian model Catherine McNeil
Catherine and Freja are rumoured to have had matching lines tattooed on their ring fingers while they were together
Catherine has a star behind her ear
Catherine's tattoo says 'the day that I die will be by far the most beautiful day I ever lived'
Beautiful.

You know I think she is so cool I love the saying "This too will pass"
Tattoos on the right person are fab... on the old lady down the road ..naff xx
The culture around tats has utterly changed, hasn't it? Formerly the domain of sailors and prison inmates, even my friend's 14 year old daughter wants one.
Yes - I agree - on the young and the beautiful it can look great. On little ol' ladies (which the beautiful Freya will one day be too!) it's not a nice look.
I can't imagine loving a single image/statement enough that I would want to impregnate my pelt with it for the rest of my life.
But, you know, the more I watch programmes like Miami Ink, the more I think....hmmm - maybe one day!
But then, a tat done by the lovely Kat will be a completely different animal to one done by some little tattoo artist in Glasgow.
Shall I save up and go to Miami?!
Wondering about the downward triangle. In occult circles, this would denote a Water symbol - quite in keeping with her powerful feminine energy - think moon, high priestess, non-male power kind of thing.
Gorgeous images - especially like that final one.

Gorgeous. I'm dying for a bit of script somewhere, my wrist or my foot maybe, but I can never choose what it should say and worry I'd go off it. Nearly got it priced up when I was on hols but would have to research which tattooist to use and that would take a lifetime too.
In short, I'm too uptight.
She looks stunning, though. Good inspiration. x
I agree. These are very tasteful and well-done tattoos. I think Angelina Jolie carries them off well, too. I am in love with her.
I am not a fan of any tattoos, no matter how small or discreet they are.
For me, never. I am a Gemini girl & change my mind & my lovers with great frequency. And, dammit, it hurts.
Dear Ruth, I love it too.
I think it comes from "This too shall pass. The one constant in this universe is that everything changes. Remind yourself of this and you'll suffer less"
I've always thought about having one but as you say when you get on a bit, the old school ones in particular look bloody awful! I think Freya's will be ok though xx
Dear Ali, I agree. I've thought about it but have never got round to it and as I get older I think I've missed the boat. I have my ears pierced - told my dad my mum said it was fine... she didn't and went spare when I was ten, and my belly button which I wear a big crystal. I've had that since I was twenty and I'm so used to it I can't take it out. Boys seem to like it!
If you ever wanted one I know an amazing tattoo artist in London xx
Dear Caroline, I know what you mean, when I see a really good one I wish I'd done it too.
I have a good friend who's an amazing artist he's based in Clerkenwell if you ever change your mind. He's done all my friends.
She does look fantastic! xx
Dear SB, she is beautiful. She has absolutely loads of tatts now!! xx
Dear Belle, I thought the same but I change my mind when I see a good one xx
Dear Marsha, Hahahaha! It would be a pain to have people's names! Ahhh bless you xx
I like her tattoos. I have 2 and want another. I found your post when searching for images of "This too shall pass.". Thanks for sharing!
It's not a fan, who made this video, but an iconic Danish designer named Mads Nørgaard. He made the video instead of a fashion show for the CPH fashionweek august 2010.

Gahhh! Her tattoos are perfect. Perfect words/phrases AND perfect placement. Her and Angelina Jolie have absolutely mastered how to get tatted a ton of times and still look elegant.
This is good site to spent time on. allergy
