For anyone saying you need to “be rich” in order to add luxury I promise you don’t!! I’m only 19 and definitely not rich but you can find wonderful things second hand and hidden gems in the charity shops to decorate, or beautiful glass wear and luxurious items of clothing! It’s just about keeping a look out!
yup! Start small, and be mindful! Right now I’m looking for some cute girly hair accessories, and guess what? The dollar store has some very cute minimal things! I’m not going to buy expensive because I simply can’t, but doing cute things to elevate my look in cheap ways will make me feel more put together and luxurious! ❤
I LOVED at his video! Everything you had to say about creating and living a luxurious life was spot on. My 99 year old mother-in-law always said, just like you did, “don’t wait for special occasions to use your fine china, beautiful crystal, fancy placemats, good silver, expensive perfume and candles. Everyday is special”… and by god she always used her formal china and sterling silver every day! I have gotten into the habit of using my fine things every day if possible… and living my “luxury life.” As a retired interior designer, I find your style and aesthetic stunning - you have a great eye for interiors and decor. I look forward to seeing if you add to your new fashion collection.. I hope to buy one of your lovely dresses. Hugs from Florida, Mary. PS: I loved your video with Josie as you traveled to Palm Beach! It’s one of my favorite places in FL… I knew you and Josie would fit right in!
For anyone nervous about investing in something like a velvet sofa: I got a pink velvet sofa cover for only $70. I honestly love it and if I ever decide I don't I can remove it
I think out of all of the helpful advice you gave us, gratitude was the most important one. We often tend to forget that there are so many people who have it worse or who would already consider the "mundane" things we take for granted a luxury.🎀💕
Yes. My mother is notorious for this because she has always been extremely smart with money (and now has no debt with an expensive house) so on the one hand, she was very sensible but she could have indulged more by using the 'nice' cutlery and not renovating right before moving to a new house lol
I'm in two minds about this video. Honestly most of it was absolutely lovely. I think you give some brilliant tips about not saving things for a special occasion, treating yourself to at-home brunches, making time for selfcare, having quiet time with a book, listening to classical music, and pampering yourself with favourite scents, textures (silk or otherwise) and little treats you've saved for. ..HOWEVER... A lot of this advice is also a bit impossible for most people (let alone impractical). You're thirty; I imagine most of us are in our 20s & 30s too. That means most of us are still renting, living with parents, or living with partners, pets or children--how many of us can actually replace all our doorknobs and light fixtures? I'm not even allowed to hang anything on the walls of my flat. How many of us just have bottles of expensive champagne lying around if we aren't influencer who are sent them? For most people, practicality shouldn't be totally eschewed when buying homeware--having inexpensive things you love and trying to thrift is wonderful advice! But getting pretty things you KNOW you'll have to replace, instead of something that lasts isn't a great idea. Most people in their 20s and 30s will move house several times (with friends, partners, flatmates), and will need their things to stand the test of time until they're lucky enough to maybe buy a home one day. Also, absolutely no one is wearing short shorts as officewear and fresh flowers are largely unaffordable during an energy crisis. 😞 Overall, I think your lifestyle is luxurious because that's your job! But the rest of us, who are renting and working 9-5, do not have lives that can look like this very often. Except for curling up with a good book. Always good advice
Agreed she's not even 30 actually she's 28 (same age as me lol)! I see this as more of an aspirational video for me because I definitely won't be investing in a house for at least a couple years but it's something nice to look forward to one day hopefully...
Exactly my thoughts. A lot of these ideas are aimed at people who live alone and own their own house and have spare money to waste on silly stuff. The ideas are good but at the end of the day it's just her opinion of luxury that's based on her personal lifestyle and nothing else.
I also didn't like that statement about buying something you know you will have to replace. It is an entertaining video but I think some of it is about consumption rather than timeless style.
Hi Anna! Thought i’d just randomly comment but ive seen you comment here over the last few years so you must be a loyal Freddy my lover, alike myself! I must say i love your content and Freddy inspired outfits and ive been recommended your account on my insta too! x
You have no idea how much your lifestyle has inspired me. Its not only the asthetic (that also has) but the idea of creating a beautiful reality here and now because beauty, luxury and happiness dont need special occasions to be enjoyed. Now is the special occasion
I LOVED this video! I come from a really rough background, and I have been conditioned to think that I can't have good things, and that I should only be concerned with te bare essentials until "the future". This video shows me that life is too short (and I have learned that the hard way from recent personal problems). I've been thinking for a long time that there are plenty of little things I could be doing to glam up my surroundings, but I keep using excuses to avoid them. Thanks for this video, Freddie! (Also: I am a HUGE Jane Austen fan!)
Hi Freddy! I absolutely love your videos. If I may just give a small piece of advice for your pearls. Pearls are created by a living organism and therefore are sort of living too. They need care in a way other gemstones don’t. I noticed you sprayed perfume while wearing your lovely pearl necklace. This ruins the pearls. If you keep doing it, the pearls will eventually lose their lustre and beauty. They will sort of look matte and dull. Also hairspray will damage them. So put on hair products and perfume before you put on your pearls. Anyway, much love to you, your lovely family, JJ, and of course Cinderella.
Freddy you're such an inspiration! I have made so many changes to my wardrobe and space since I started watching you, and as a result they feel more and more like a reflection of me. You have such a unique vision and style, and truly inspire me to be unapologetically myself. Thank you 💕
Right. It's settled: I'm getting my own apartment and surrounding myself with silk, satin and velvet. I'm sure my husband and three kids won't miss me every once and a while. ;)
i love this so much. i recently started university and i felt very self conscious because everyone was dressed in athletic clothes and didn’t put effort into their fashion or look (which is no problem). i got many many looks in my outfits, heels, and hair all done, but this video made me feel so much better about dressing up and being extra. everyday is an occasion and we should treat it as such. i can always count on you to give the best advice to live a more glamorous life. love this form of video, Freddy💗
I can certainly relate from when I was in college! You're going to be a trailblazer and you will just walk into every room with grace, confidence, and poise! 🤍✨🎀
This is one of my favourite videos of you ever! And I totally agree and do most of this myself 🤍 Also, a tip for summer; don’t wear perfume when you go outside in the sun, the alcohol can create spots on your skin that never go away. My mom has it in her neck from going out with perfume in the sun all her life and it’s permanent! You literally see the little drops from the spray.
I wish you focused a bit more on the routine and not as much on buying things. A lot of us can’t afford real luxury like silk blouses or bed sheets. Still a lovely video idea 💕
a few years ago, cause of freddy, I started wanting a silk pillow cover and I got it early this year. there's like a million things I have to spend my money on before silk stuff but I'm committed to buy more stuff from them in the future cause I really do love the pillow case with all my heart. I think what she's trying to say it just take the time to spend on stuff you really value (even if the value is low) and you'll get there eventually, to live the life you want
Totally agree with Minerva It’s about learning to love ourselves and our places. Ladies even if it means going to thrift stores. I have found totally new pieces. Got myself a gorgeous silk blouse for $6, found a gorgeous faux fur coat, found beautiful leather and suede jackets. Even found a wool/cashmere brand new coat in off white, for $12. Don’t get sad or discourage. Use her videos to get inspired instead. I bought myself pearls, and pretty cream colors winter pieces and feel so glamorous I can’t believe it! At the thrift store look for silk, cotton, linen or cashmere & wool. Real fine fabrics pieces and you will never go wrong
Silk is such a horrible, horrible thing to buy. 3000 silk moths are boiled alive to make a pound of silk. It saddens me that she's partnered with Lilysilk on this.
Absolutely adore this video! Freddy, you spread such a positive mindset, even the days when you’re not positive yourself. We appreciate the hard work you do and your videos are amazing! 💖
I adore your videos. I wish that you could post more videos during the week as you are always so amusing and your videos make my days brighter. Keep it up Freddy, you are amazing!
This is my favorite video of yours! I've been trying to make my life as luxurious as yours but I wasn't sure how to until I saw this video :) You're my favorite youtuber by the way!
"Let me be surrounded by luxury, I can do without the necessities!" (Oscar Wilde). I needed this video and I didn't know :''). A classic Freddy video to remind us that we can put into reality what we have in our mind and the way we feel (the quintessencial aesthetic principle since cultural Romanticism!): "luxury is a state of mind". The 'how to' Freddy videos are some of my favourites and every now and then I rewatch them to remind me to fulfill my life with beauty! Thank you for being our Fairy Godmother 🤍And I looooved Cinderella appearances! :'')
Love this video Freddy 🥰 I am newly graduated from college and in my first job but I’ve made my little apartment as lovely as possible on my budget with you in mind. Keep it up ❤️
I used to have all my cutlery and china in the cupboard and only use it for guests and special occasions, then daddy got sick and we lost him. I realized that nothing is forever, those things in the cupboards will outlive me weather I use them or not. I got rid of ridiculous cutlery, now only use fancy ones every single day. best linnens, best comforters, best of everything that I can reasonably afford without putting myself into financial hurdle. Great reminder and mindset Freddy. 👏🏻
Freddie! You are such an inspiration, you really lift me out of darkness and your channel is absolutely amazing. Thank you for everything that you have given. Messages, fashion, travels. Everything! Spoken from the bottom of my ❤️ you and a few other influencers are literally changing lives! Please keep on doing what you do.
My little bit of every day luxury is my Smeg espresso machine. I start every day by making a delicious coffee and taking it back to bed to ease into the day. I wear Chanel perfume every day and only use the very best bed linen. I approve your public service announcement and wholeheartedly agree. Great video
What a lovely video! We don't have the exact same style but I've always appreciated your restraint when it comes to picking the perfect pieces and outfits ❤ I'm now nostalgic for my Sunday Pamper Routine 🤣 I used to wake up early ish, do some yoga, have an MOT shower, go to the bakery down the road and buy a breakfast croissant (or two) and a cake for the afternoon. Then I would get the teaset out, lay it all out on a tray, and journal then have breakfast. All whilst laying on the sofa I saved up for for months ❤ I can't wait to be a home owner (or even just renting) so I can have my sacred mornings again and my own space and that feeling of peace when the whole day is ahead and its just you and your whims ❤
Oh, Freddy! This video is just the ultimate luxury itself :) Every tip you gave I will be doing, and over the years I have loved seeing how luxury always plays a big part in everything you do. As you said, luxury doesn't have to be expensive - luxury is a state of being that reflects who you are. Beautiful, graceful, elegant, pleasing, effortless, delightful, and divine. That is luxury :)
I look at my window and it's raining right now, so watching this video is so relaxing. I have to admit that is my favorite one. All my admiration for your boyfriend, who bought the Swarovski crystal gift for your cat.🐱So cute and sweet of him. That means he loves you and respects you.♥ This summer I saw a very disappointing scene during a holiday video trip of a famous ,, digital diva " , where her boyfriend refused to buy her a flower. So sad because they have been together for many years. This video made my day. 😀 I find myself in your style.🌷Your home looks wonderful! Kisses! ✨😘✨
Every time I watch your videos, I just feel like I want to live my luxurious best life in Paris. Renting out a beautiful hotel or AirBNB and spending my time there, living luxuriously 💗
Definitely going through things in my own house and life and seeing what could be seen as 'luxurious', what is just luxurious to me, and what easy improvements I can make.
Well Freddie i think this was a truly fabulous video im deff going to take on board not saving things for a rainy day or a special day, as you say every day is a special day!! too true thankyou once again very enjoyable to watch and get ideas 😘 💋
Absolutely adorable 🥰♥️ and totally agree❣️❣️❣️more vlogs like this; you are so great at inspiring more than fashion… your “organizing” vlogs are also inspiring ❣️❣️♥️
You are so right about everyday we are alive is special. My mother taught me to use the china and silver daily. Love all your tips. Thanks for the reminder.
I adore your channel Freddy, you don’t even know. 🥰✨💖 You inspire me to take care of myself and to treat myself to a good, healthy, fun, beautiful lifestyle. 💖💖💖
Freddy Thanks for such hard work producing this beautiful video!!! I love your esthetic and your soft color palette! You inspired me so much, I started little by little to decorate my bedroom in blush pink and white as well. And starting to collect lots of pink dishes and white ones as well to give it contrast! My kitchen is looking PINKY delicious and the pink kettle is just so special on my stove to cheer me up daily!! Thanks! You are wonderfully inspiring!!🌷
Hi Freddy loved this video. Everything you do is so beautiful , you have made a gorgeous relaxing place to be. I adore Cinderella she is more beautiful as she grows up. Thank you Freddy for a fabulous video. 💟💟
I love this video! 💖 And I love the advices you gave about how to live a luxury life! Yes, everyday of our life is a special day. We should not save beautiful things for occasions. We need to enjoy with all beautiful things we have and not keep them hidden away. Thank you for all the beautiful and luxury ideas. 🌷
I absolutely adore your channel and you Freddy. You’re stunning. We were born in the same year! I’m a Cancerian baby. You remind me of my sister and I think you’d like her. Your tastes in decor are also very similar. 🙏 Where did you find your gorgeous swan and head ornaments?
Always enjoyed her videos but at this point in my life I can't seem to connect anymore with her🥺 Love that she's enjoying her life but finding it a bit OTT for my tastes 🤷🏻♀️ Wishing you all the best Freddy🌻🧚🌷🌼🦄
I love this video. You are so beautiful. You got a beautiful home. You inspired me to keep making VIDEOS on my CHANNEL and not giving up. Your cat Cinderella is so Adorable. My second favorite color is pink. My favorite color is purple. I love flowers. I love your prints in your flat. You did a wonderful job in this video xx sending lots of love from nz 💗🤗 I love your tea cup and sauce so cute. Love how you put your food out on a tray. I love your record player. I love candles. I am WATCHING a good movie I do not like reading books I love tidy and everything organized. Great tips
I love your videos and I saw this today and I knew it would be great but never this amazing😍 This video is pure Freddy and I LOVE IT! I absolutely loved this video I was almost in tears at the end so motivational ! Well done Freddy you always outdo yourself 🥰
Of course this is not to everyone and luxurious things are beautiful but expensive... I love the aesthetic of the video but have mixed feelings about it... 😕
I agree. For me I watch this kind of video for pure enjoyment. I cannot realistically afford such items. My husband and I are putting our money into more important things like our home and our baby that's due next March. 💕
This is one of my favorite Videos of your channel so far😍 so often we forget to treat ourselfs like a princess, but this Video gives the inspiration to chance it💓
I love your videos but I can't stay silent any longer haha, it is not typical to wear shorts to work no matter how appropriate they seem! My office doesn't even allow shorts. I always think your "work wear" type outfits are so cute but yeah, they're not realistic. (here in the US anyway!)
Not realistic in the UK either. I think it would be really cool for Freddy to go to a typical office job and see what people wear and then try and makeover the outfits within actual work-appropriate parameters though!
Fantastic lifestyles vlogs from England, Freddy Congrats on the spectacular new collection-Flossy by Freddy. RIP Queen Elizabeth II-the most excellent Monarch & Sovereign of the most Noble Order of the Garter, Biggest Star. Congrats to Queen Elizabeth II on 70 glorious years of reign. The longest reigning Monarch. She will be truly missed by everyone from around the world. Heartfelt condolences from California & from our channel: Australian Parakeets Stars
@Nathalie Gravel I’m chronically ill...I accept the fact that most things in the world are done from a healthy person’s point of view. While I do need some accommodations made in my daily life, acknowledgment from my favorite RUclips creators isn’t something I need. I enjoy Freddy’s content because she’s pink and preppy and princessy...I don’t expect her to make allowances for every little thing. There are other content creators that deal with chronic illness that I can go to when I need to know how to make something applicable for my situation. But Freddy, I watch when I need me some happy dopamine going on! 🤗
@Nathalie Gravel 🌹I enjoy Freddy's videos, but I do have empathy for your situation. My mother was handicapped so I would do these things for her. We gave her room a makeover, got her cute little beauty products to do a morning routine, bought her pretty clothes that she could wear in her condition etc. And everything was CHEAP & Affordable. Some videos are entertaining and not to take too seriously. This video is her life. You can find things you love in your life that make you feel special. 🥰 🌈
This is litterally one of the best videos ever. LOVE the filming, the aesthetic, just everythig💕! You did such an amazing job Freddy, I really needed some motivation and inspiration today and this was just perfect Ly so much💖
Freddy Cousin Brown - "There is nothing I hare more than Silver Cutlery" - LOLORAMA!!!!! Also, someone call VOGUE!!! Cinderella needs to be on the cover with those modelling skills!
Freddy, please explain your mirror TV! 16:14 I hate having a big black box just sitting there. I’ve seen the Picture frame TVs and think those are intriguing when I can afford one, but I am extremely curious of what you did here. It is very classy! I also loved the black and white photo idea. I grew up with a “no photos” rule because my dad thought it looked tacky. I could never really allow myself to put up photos in my home except 2 special exceptions but this may be a good compromise between me and my husband! To add to the general discussion: I agree there is a fine line between materialism and class. However, that’s why Freddy emphasizes on the cohesive color pallet so each item is more versatile. My aunt it’s such a classy, elegant woman and I have always aspired to be like her one day, yet I never one considered her materialistic (even though there are others who I have considered very materialistic). To me materialism is constantly being up on the latest trends and replacing things as soon as you’re board with them, focusing so much on what other people have, generally being wasteful, etc. you can be elegant and classy without being materialistic. It’s definitely all about carriage and outlook.
I love all these tips! I also recommend a lovely pair of slippers (or "house shoes") to wear around the house. I wear cute fluffy Ugg slides and it just makes me feel a bit more luxurious than socks or bare feet would!
The part where you said you hate silver cutlery made me laugh a lot because I passionately hate gold cultery XD And I hate gold trimmed plates even if they are beautiful to look at: my grandma had a set and she continuously had to replace this or that despite the set being a very good quality and expensive one since the gold borders kept chipping away and there's nothing worst than having a shabby lookind dining set. I think what makes a house really luxurious and put toghether are indeed the scents around the house, the fabric of your sofas and chairs, the fact that you have good carpets and curtains and the chandeliers/ceiling lights..and of course keeping all this dust-free, that's a must.
Just love the way you prattle on. I find it so relaxing your voice is very relaxing to listen to. Filled with good ideas wearing sleeveless dresses with a silk blouse. My favorite clothes are silk. LOl I do have gold cutlery for special occasions. OMG. You have nothing to throw away. I have a 40 foot wall that I turned into mirrored closets. My rule now though is if I buy one I have to throw one away. So of course now I go for unique things that I do not have. Always find your videos so refreshing filled with excellent ideas. Almost forgot I ove soft plush blankets and I said I was going to make a full outfit to lunge around the house in and guess what? I found several tops made out of the exact material that I wanted. Soft plush blanket material so soft against your skin. Just love them. Have to admit in the summer I put a soft plush blanket on my bed and lie on it in the nude. LOL. Alos found several bathrobes made in the same plush material. Love them.
You do have a really good eye! Before I shop for anything now, I first search for options on your channel 😂 I'm not lying! 🫣 You make me feel like I want to go for glam because you're right .. it makes such a difference in one's mood!
Dear Freddy, this is one of your best videos ever (this and of course, Victoria Secret, Pandora and your travels with Josie)! Will watch again! Love it!!! ♥️🏝️♥️🏝️🎑
Absolutely lovely, exquisite, your home is just gorgeous & little Princess Cinderella looks to be totally in her element. Your vid was the highlight of my day, a visual feast, so uplifting & inspirational. I sincerely admire your creativity & eye for beauty, thanks so much for sharing your world & for reminding me that just being alive is a special occasion!
"Every single day that we are alive is a special occasion" 🥺💖
I adore you, Freddy. Loved this video!
exactly
i love this. its not about money, its about romanticising the little things, making small adjustments, and caring for yourself.
No, it's mostly about spending and thinking you are Marie Antoinette if you think about it.

A lot of this advice is also a bit impossible for most people (let alone impractical). You're thirty; I imagine most of us are in our 20s & 30s too.

Totally agree with Minerva
It’s about learning to love ourselves and our places. Ladies even if it means going to thrift stores. I have found totally new pieces. Got myself a gorgeous silk blouse for $6, found a gorgeous faux fur coat, found beautiful leather and suede jackets. Even found a wool/cashmere brand new coat in off white, for $12.
Don’t get sad or discourage. Use her videos to get inspired instead. I bought myself pearls, and pretty cream colors winter pieces and feel so glamorous I can’t believe it! At the thrift store look for silk, cotton, linen or cashmere & wool. Real fine fabrics pieces and you will never go wrong
It's a ad
Silk is such a horrible, horrible thing to buy. 3000 silk moths are boiled alive to make a pound of silk. It saddens me that she's partnered with Lilysilk on this.
Absolutely adore this video! Freddy, you spread such a positive mindset, even the days when you’re not positive yourself. We appreciate the hard work you do and your videos are amazing! 💖
This is the video every girl must watch! They should use it at school's program!
🤣🤣🫶🏻💕
👅🤑😛Sa va😍🥰😘
This is the quintessential Freddy video. I was trying to tell my 76 year old mother about you. Now, I have the perfect video to share with her!
I always treat my life like it’s a fairytale 💕✨
I’m so excited for fall/winter attire videos coming up! 😍
I adore your videos. I wish that you could post more videos during the week as you are always so amusing and your videos make my days brighter. Keep it up Freddy, you are amazing!
This is my favorite video of yours! I've been trying to make my life as luxurious as yours but I wasn't sure how to until I saw this video :) You're my favorite youtuber by the way!
I just love your videos, Freddy! They're a great way to spice up my life and who doesn't enjoy a lot of sparkles and glam?
"Let me be surrounded by luxury, I can do without the necessities!" (Oscar Wilde). I needed this video and I didn't know :''). A classic Freddy video to remind us that we can put into reality what we have in our mind and the way we feel (the quintessencial aesthetic principle since cultural Romanticism!): "luxury is a state of mind". The 'how to' Freddy videos are some of my favourites and every now and then I rewatch them to remind me to fulfill my life with beauty! Thank you for being our Fairy Godmother 🤍And I looooved Cinderella appearances! :'')
Love this video Freddy 🥰 I am newly graduated from college and in my first job but I’ve made my little apartment as lovely as possible on my budget with you in mind. Keep it up ❤️
Cinderella's face when you mentioned blood made me die!!! She's so dramatic - like her mummy!
I used to have all my cutlery and china in the cupboard and only use it for guests and special occasions, then daddy got sick and we lost him. I realized that nothing is forever, those things in the cupboards will outlive me weather I use them or not. I got rid of ridiculous cutlery, now only use fancy ones every single day. best linnens, best comforters, best of everything that I can reasonably afford without putting myself into financial hurdle. Great reminder and mindset Freddy. 👏🏻
I am extremely sorry for your loss.
Freddie! You are such an inspiration, you really lift me out of darkness and your channel is absolutely amazing. Thank you for everything that you have given. Messages, fashion, travels. Everything! Spoken from the bottom of my ❤️ you and a few other influencers are literally changing lives! Please keep on doing what you do.
My little bit of every day luxury is my Smeg espresso machine. I start every day by making a delicious coffee and taking it back to bed to ease into the day. I wear Chanel perfume every day and only use the very best bed linen. I approve your public service announcement and wholeheartedly agree. Great video
What a lovely video! We don't have the exact same style but I've always appreciated your restraint when it comes to picking the perfect pieces and outfits ❤
I'm now nostalgic for my Sunday Pamper Routine 🤣 I used to wake up early ish, do some yoga, have an MOT shower, go to the bakery down the road and buy a breakfast croissant (or two) and a cake for the afternoon. Then I would get the teaset out, lay it all out on a tray, and journal then have breakfast. All whilst laying on the sofa I saved up for for months ❤ I can't wait to be a home owner (or even just renting) so I can have my sacred mornings again and my own space and that feeling of peace when the whole day is ahead and its just you and your whims ❤
Oh, Freddy! This video is just the ultimate luxury itself :) Every tip you gave I will be doing, and over the years I have loved seeing how luxury always plays a big part in everything you do. As you said, luxury doesn't have to be expensive - luxury is a state of being that reflects who you are. Beautiful, graceful, elegant, pleasing, effortless, delightful, and divine. That is luxury :)
I look at my window and it's raining right now, so watching this video is so relaxing. I have to admit that is my favorite one. All my admiration for your boyfriend, who bought the Swarovski crystal gift for your cat.🐱So cute and sweet of him. That means he loves you and respects you.♥ This summer I saw a very disappointing scene during a holiday video trip of a famous ,, digital diva " , where her boyfriend refused to buy her a flower. So sad because they have been together for many years. This video made my day. 😀 I find myself in your style.🌷Your home looks wonderful! Kisses! ✨😘✨
I absolutely loved this video. I'm redecorating my home right now and it has rejuvenated my mood and energy.
Every time I watch your videos, I just feel like I want to live my luxurious best life in Paris. Renting out a beautiful hotel or AirBNB and spending my time there, living luxuriously 💗
Let me join you in Paris! 💕😁
Definitely going through things in my own house and life and seeing what could be seen as 'luxurious', what is just luxurious to me, and what easy improvements I can make.
Well Freddie i think this was a truly fabulous video im deff going to take on board not saving things for a rainy day or a special day, as you say every day is a special day!! too true
thankyou once again very enjoyable to watch and get ideas 😘
💋
From all the sponsored lilysilk videos I've watched over the past few days, this was the 👌
AWWW THANK YOU! 🥹🤍
Seriously this video is amazing all the advices each one helps, even a small thing would make you feel luxurious, well done
I love it bravo
I am going to pour myself some juice into my fancy whine glasses right now! Loved watching the video ☺️
This is the video I've been searching on RUclips, lovely !!
Absolutely adorable 🥰♥️ and totally agree❣️❣️❣️more vlogs like this; you are so great at inspiring more than fashion… your “organizing” vlogs are also inspiring ❣️❣️♥️
Thank you so much! 🙏🏻🥹
I love this! Exactly what I need right now. You always have the best ideas and taste. You’ll always be my No. 1 inspiration in life 💕
I ❤ the white peonies and white vase along with the pearls on the mirror.
Cinderella looking up when you said “even blood” 😂
This is just what I needed. The tea cup cat bowl is just BEAUTIFUL
I always feel so at peace when watching your videos and I really appreciate that you never make your videos a waste of time.
That is so so sweet and wonderful to read thank you 🤍🤍🤍
I think this may be my most favorite RUclips video of all time! 💕
Absolutely beautiful .... Loved your Star Luxury Hotel Lifestyle 💖💖💖💖💖
You are so right about everyday we are alive is special. My mother taught me to use the china and silver daily. Love all your tips. Thanks for the reminder.
I adore your channel Freddy, you don’t even know. 🥰✨💖 You inspire me to take care of myself and to treat myself to a good, healthy, fun, beautiful lifestyle. 💖💖💖
1) have money
Freddy
Thanks for such hard work producing this beautiful video!!! I love your esthetic and your soft color palette! You inspired me so much, I started little by little to decorate my bedroom in blush pink and white as well. And starting to collect lots of pink dishes and white ones as well to give it contrast! My kitchen is looking PINKY delicious and the pink kettle is just so special on my stove to cheer me up daily!! Thanks! You are wonderfully inspiring!!🌷
Hi Freddy loved this video. Everything you do is so beautiful , you have made a gorgeous relaxing place to be. I adore Cinderella she is more beautiful as she grows up. Thank you Freddy for a fabulous video. 💟💟
Freddy; “If you left your house right now, would you embarrassed of what your wearing?”
Me *watching this after just getting out the shower*: 👁👄👁
I love this video! 💖 And I love the advices you gave about how to live a luxury life! Yes, everyday of our life is a special day. We should not save beautiful things for occasions. We need to enjoy with all beautiful things we have and not keep them hidden away. Thank you for all the beautiful and luxury ideas. 🌷
every part of Cindy in this video is everything 💖
I absolutely adore your channel and you Freddy. You’re stunning. We were born in the same year! I’m a Cancerian baby. You remind me of my sister and I think you’d like her. Your tastes in decor are also very similar. 🙏 Where did you find your gorgeous swan and head ornaments?
Always enjoyed her videos but at this point in my life I can't seem to connect anymore with her🥺 Love that she's enjoying her life but finding it a bit OTT for my tastes 🤷🏻♀️ Wishing you all the best Freddy🌻🧚🌷🌼🦄
I love this video. You are so beautiful. You got a beautiful home. You inspired me to keep making VIDEOS on my CHANNEL and not giving up. Your cat Cinderella is so Adorable. My second favorite color is pink. My favorite color is purple. I love flowers. I love your prints in your flat. You did a wonderful job in this video xx sending lots of love from nz 💗🤗 I love your tea cup and sauce so cute. Love how you put your food out on a tray. I love your record player. I love candles. I am WATCHING a good movie I do not like reading books I love tidy and everything organized. Great tips
Adore this video so much, this made me feel so happy. So girly 🫶🤍💗💐🌸👛🩰
Basically the answer is work enough or inherit in order to buy fancy pancy beautiful things and gift yourself
I love your videos and I saw this today and I knew it would be great but never this amazing😍
This video is pure Freddy and I LOVE IT! I absolutely loved this video I was almost in tears at the end so motivational !
Well done Freddy you always outdo yourself 🥰
Of course this is not to everyone and luxurious things are beautiful but expensive... I love the aesthetic of the video but have mixed feelings about it... 😕
I agree. For me I watch this kind of video for pure enjoyment. I cannot realistically afford such items. My husband and I are putting our money into more important things like our home and our baby that's due next March. 💕
@@Erin_29 Congratulations! 👶Best wishes for your family ❣
@@merizita thank you!😊😊
This is one of my favorite Videos of your channel so far😍 so often we forget to treat ourselfs like a princess, but this Video gives the inspiration to chance it💓
This was the sweetest, most inspiring, heart warming video! Loved every minute right until the end. Thank you for this, Freddy! Just what I needed 💖
I‘ve already watched this video three times and it for sure is a video I will watch many times more!
I love your videos but I can't stay silent any longer haha, it is not typical to wear shorts to work no matter how appropriate they seem! My office doesn't even allow shorts. I always think your "work wear" type outfits are so cute but yeah, they're not realistic. (here in the US anyway!)
Not realistic in the UK either. I think it would be really cool for Freddy to go to a typical office job and see what people wear and then try and makeover the outfits within actual work-appropriate parameters though!
I think it really depends on the job. I’m lucky enough that it’s allowed for women at mine ! (Sadly not for men)
clicked on this to enjoy the aesthetic but it was actually wayyy more applicable than i was expecting, brb bout to change my life
Fantastic lifestyles vlogs from England, Freddy Congrats on the spectacular new collection-Flossy by Freddy. RIP Queen Elizabeth II-the most excellent Monarch & Sovereign of the most Noble Order of the Garter, Biggest Star. Congrats to Queen Elizabeth II on 70 glorious years of reign. The longest reigning Monarch. She will be truly missed by everyone from around the world. Heartfelt condolences from California & from our channel: Australian Parakeets Stars
Step 1. Be rich 😅
Although, streamlining and weeding out what you don’t actually use is a useful tip at any financial level. 😂👍🏻
Was just thinking the same 😂
Ikr😂
@Nathalie Gravel I’m chronically ill...I accept the fact that most things in the world are done from a healthy person’s point of view. While I do need some accommodations made in my daily life, acknowledgment from my favorite RUclips creators isn’t something I need.
I enjoy Freddy’s content because she’s pink and preppy and princessy...I don’t expect her to make allowances for every little thing.
There are other content creators that deal with chronic illness that I can go to when I need to know how to make something applicable for my situation.
But Freddy, I watch when I need me some happy dopamine going on! 🤗
@Nathalie Gravel 🌹I enjoy Freddy's videos, but I do have empathy for your situation. My mother was handicapped so I would do these things for her. We gave her room a makeover, got her cute little beauty products to do a morning routine, bought her pretty clothes that she could wear in her condition etc. And everything was CHEAP & Affordable. Some videos are entertaining and not to take too seriously. This video is her life. You can find things you love in your life that make you feel special. 🥰 🌈
This is litterally one of the best videos ever. LOVE the filming, the aesthetic, just everythig💕! You did such an amazing job Freddy, I really needed some motivation and inspiration today and this was just perfect
Ly so much💖
❤ all the outfits,great classy timeless style!!
Thankx Freddy 🤍🤍
Freddy Cousin Brown - "There is nothing I hare more than Silver Cutlery" - LOLORAMA!!!!! Also, someone call VOGUE!!! Cinderella needs to be on the cover with those modelling skills!
🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭
Her legs are TOOOOOOOO long!!
Freddy, please explain your mirror TV! 16:14
I hate having a big black box just sitting there. I’ve seen the Picture frame TVs and think those are intriguing when I can afford one, but I am extremely curious of what you did here. It is very classy!
I also loved the black and white photo idea. I grew up with a “no photos” rule because my dad thought it looked tacky. I could never really allow myself to put up photos in my home except 2 special exceptions but this may be a good compromise between me and my husband!
To add to the general discussion: I agree there is a fine line between materialism and class. However, that’s why Freddy emphasizes on the cohesive color pallet so each item is more versatile. My aunt it’s such a classy, elegant woman and I have always aspired to be like her one day, yet I never one considered her materialistic (even though there are others who I have considered very materialistic). To me materialism is constantly being up on the latest trends and replacing things as soon as you’re board with them, focusing so much on what other people have, generally being wasteful, etc. you can be elegant and classy without being materialistic. It’s definitely all about carriage and outlook.
Wonderful, inspirational video. Thank you so much !
I love all these tips! I also recommend a lovely pair of slippers (or "house shoes") to wear around the house. I wear cute fluffy Ugg slides and it just makes me feel a bit more luxurious than socks or bare feet would!
The part where you said you hate silver cutlery made me laugh a lot because I passionately hate gold cultery XD And I hate gold trimmed plates even if they are beautiful to look at: my grandma had a set and she continuously had to replace this or that despite the set being a very good quality and expensive one since the gold borders kept chipping away and there's nothing worst than having a shabby lookind dining set.
I think what makes a house really luxurious and put toghether are indeed the scents around the house, the fabric of your sofas and chairs, the fact that you have good carpets and curtains and the chandeliers/ceiling lights..and of course keeping all this dust-free, that's a must.
Just love the way you prattle on. I find it so relaxing your voice is very relaxing to listen to. Filled with good ideas wearing sleeveless dresses with a silk blouse. My favorite clothes are silk. LOl I do have gold cutlery for special occasions. OMG. You have nothing to throw away. I have a 40 foot wall that I turned into mirrored closets. My rule now though is if I buy one I have to throw one away. So of course now I go for unique things that I do not have. Always find your videos so refreshing filled with excellent ideas. Almost forgot I ove soft plush blankets and I said I was going to make a full outfit to lunge around the house in and guess what? I found several tops made out of the exact material that I wanted. Soft plush blanket material so soft against your skin. Just love them. Have to admit in the summer I put a soft plush blanket on my bed and lie on it in the nude. LOL. Alos found several bathrobes made in the same plush material. Love them.
Great videooo, very inspiring and positive🌷 it reminds me of your old school videos, just loved it🤍
I bought a green velvet couch, it’s in the dark green family. I have an Italian style home, and it looks great with my yellow walls …🇺🇸
You do have a really good eye! Before I shop for anything now, I first search for options on your channel 😂 I'm not lying! 🫣 You make me feel like I want to go for glam because you're right .. it makes such a difference in one's mood!
Freddy "My Love" this was a beautiful
informative video. Your flat is gorgeous
& every detail attended to. Such
lovely ideas. TFS

Dear Freddy, this is one of your best videos ever (this and of course, Victoria Secret, Pandora and your travels with Josie)! Will watch again! Love it!!! ♥️🏝️♥️🏝️🎑
I am in love 🥰 thank you for this video
Freddy called me out on the plastic store mismatched hangers 😂
😭😭😭 I have a deep hatred for them I’M SORRY! 😁💕
@@FreddyMyLove 🤍
I hope you will do more videos like these.
This was really great and your apartment is Gorg 😍
Absolutely lovely, exquisite, your home is just gorgeous & little Princess Cinderella looks to be totally in her element.
