My name is Blondina, and I am a model, welcome to the first instalment of my blog! The first thing you need to know about me is that I am a huge Vivienne Westwood fan. I have been a follower of 'The Dame' since I first made the pilgrimage to ‘World's End’, way back in the day when that was the only shop she had!

Oh yes I remember ‘punk rock’, the Pirate Collection, Rocking Horse shoes ,Harlequin and Columbine, Buffalo Girls, Sarah Stockbridge (my favourite model ever), The mini-crini, “Don’t you ever kiss me once kiss me twice”, Harris tweed, the man who forgot his trousers, and even the dame who forgot her pants at the palace!

Now I know I don’t look old enough to go that far back, let’s just say that good genes run in my family, and any way what’s lacking in nature can always be made up for with a good plastic surgeon! So age aside here I am, at the peak of my career now working as the Platinum Blonde showroom dummy; and I have to tell you it’s a job I love, for I am in Vivienne Westwood heaven! I spend all day surrounded by gorgeous Vivienne Westwood accessories, handbags with specially picked matching purses. The costume jewellery is to die for and there are delicious scarves made of silks, wool and fine linens, to wraparound my delicate neck; and now we have added Vivienne Westwood ‘Melissa’ shoes to our collection, What girl could ask for anything more?

There is a lot more to being a showroom dummy than one might think; apart from the usual requirements, flawless milky skin, exquisite cheek bones, and thighs to stop a truck, one must also have the ability to sit still for hours on end, gazing out at the high street, looking fabulous and giving the people of Coleshill something to aspire too!

I suppose you could say that I am a bit of a mentor, so I am going to make it my task to guide all you Vivienne Westwood fans towards, what’s in and what’s out?, what’s hot and what’s not?!!!

Lots of Love Blondina x

Me in my platinum blonde window cheering on team GB 
What an amazing 17 days we have had! The London 2012 Olympics has delivered far beyond all expectations! For one tiny moment the whole country has put aside the doldrums of the recession and pulled together to celebrate everything that is fabulous about being British! What a wonderfully, multi-cultural, rainbow coloured society we have become! Did you know that just being born British means you have won the lottery of life!

The only Olympic live event I got to see was the women's football at the Richoh Arena. I was so excited about my V.I.P tickets to watch our gals in the semi final, I glammed up and hot footed over to the 30,000 seater stadium. Nothing, but nothing could have prepared me to be the only gorgeous blonde amongst 29,000 lesbians! Now let's be honest, nobody minds the odd "Lipstick Lesbian" (in fact it quite takes me back to my college days!) But these were far more of the" Birkenstock" variety - call me old fashioned but I always like a Bush to be well trimmed!

On the upside, for me the highlight of the games has to be the four man rowing team who in a momentous race took the gold! Unfortunately at the medal ceremony the entire event was upstaged by Henrik Rummel with his "Podium Package!" What can one say? I just thought he was keeping a can of pledge in his pants in case he needed to Polish his medal! 
Henrik Rummel in all his glory! 


 However the excitement of the London 2012 Olympics has spread to much further regions than Rummel's rowing shorts. I found a lovely tree in my village, the family who owns it have placed a trinket on their tree for every medal team GB have won! What a beautiful way to celebrate!
The Tree of Hope and Glory. Nether Whitacre near Coleshill.
Let's hope that this British pride continues long after the torch has been extinguished.

 Ciao Bella Sorella's
