Witch.
Ask yourself what you want out of the concept and focus on these aspects.
Here is what I would do:
-goddess of love and beauty > charismatic and can maybe charm people
-leader of the Valkyries > can fight and wear armor
-goddess of magic > has to be able to cast spells
-owns a magic bracelett > WPL
-(drives a flying chariot pulled by cats > just use WPL, if you really want the cats use Leadership)
I would probably use a bard or a skald. Since most fighty archetypes take out some charm abilities non-archetyped.
Inspire Warriors, fight with a spear and charm people with your beauty
Another possibility could be a Scion Magus, but that blasty playlist wouldn't fit that well IMO. The upside is, you could use a breastplate, if your level is high enough.
For charisma-based melee and casting, I'd say Oracle right away. With a one level martial dip you can make an awesome hybrid Oracle with a lot of 'goddess' flavor. You could even make an Oracle/Monk1 who uses charisma for Monk bonuses and uses Flurry of Blows with a longsword.
Shaman or Witch Eldritch Knight could work really well too, but charisma-based seems to make more sense.
I've been trying to build a character based on the goddess Freya for a high levelgestalygestalt campaign and Im not realy sure what classes and archetypes would go best with that. Does anyoune have any ideas?
People seem to have missed a bit.
I'd say Oracle + whatever full BAB class you like ...

For gestalt, Oracle and Nornkith Monk would be about perfect, right down to wearing no armor while double-dipping CHA for AC and flurrying a sword. And a Nature Oracle can have a Bonded Mount trained to use Air Walk for pure Valkyrie style. Oh, and Spirit Guide to get Battle Spirit.

Fighter/Witch, or Valkyrie/Witch if you want to be absolutely glorious!

That Valkyrie is an awesome supplement.
She's a fertility goddess (literally) before she's anything else, I'd start with druid. Probably a feyspeaker to make a high charisma easier to afford, and the Vanir are associated with the fey. I'm not sure a full-on martial class works, she's only modestly famous as a warrior; bard or skald maybe.

She is the Lady of the Valkyries, meaning she also has a finger in the war/death pie... but yeah, first and foremost, she is the goddess of fertility, love and beauty... I think a nature oracle might be key to that.
